That is just disrespectful to Troy, and I simply will not tolerate any Sun Belt hate in this comments section. Read more

I haven’t read Grant, but will keep that in mind! Regarding your points here, just so we’re clear, I’m not solely extrapolating from Gilmore’s work, but instead using the specific example of Murray to press on something I’ve noticed in my hours (probably days, at this point) spent in the Southern Oral History… Read more

Unfortunately, at least for the sake of the work you put into this comment, I already addressed quite literally every single one of them in the previous 45,000 words I already published for… Read more

I always hated cleaning out the gutters. It doesn’t take as long but it’s a real pain in the ass. Also, my brother used to shake the ladder. Read more
