Discordant

Every time I hear Paula Deen talk I have to fight the urge to ram pencils in my ears. That overly saccharine and exaggerated southern accent makes me want to go strangle kittens. I'd rather listen to 10,000 monkeys scrape a thousand forks across a hundred metal frying pans than have to listen to that drawl.

I've lived in South Carolina, Georgia, and Louisiana. I've been to the backwoods of deep, deep Georgia... places no Asian man should ever be, and I haven't heard a southern drawl that thick.

Paula, quit overplaying the "southern" thing. Just talk normal so I can watch one of your shows without having to mute you and turn on the closed captioning.
Sheesh.
