A very good place for anyone looking for a good education and a good laugh at the same time. Here are some tips to Northerners before you move here:
1: The food is called grits, notice the s, the food is not a grit, it is called grits
2: If you see girls saying "like" every other word, it is prefectly normal
3: If you are over age 10, female, and you like Hannah Montana/ Miley Cyrus stay away from Tennessee
4: Y'all is in the dictionary, get over it
5: 3/4 of the female population in Tennessee is "girly-girl"
so if you came to Tennessee to meet a "tomboy", good luck with that
6: Weather is unpredictable. It snows in April and is over 105 degrees F in October
7: In martial arts, there is almost no karate schools or other martial arts except for Tae kwon Do, you will find about 50 of those
8: There is a McDonalds in almost every town yet barely anybody is overweight
9: "I don't give a crap is just another way of saying, "I didn't much sleep last night"
10: Lastly, if you think you can just move here and be country then you obviously don't know a thing

Random woman: Thank you for showing me what a grit is

Tennessee is basically 3 states: West Tennessee, Middle Tennessee, and East Tennessee.
West Tennessee and Middle Tennessee are more culturally Southern, East Tennessee is culturally Appalachian. Tennessee is known for music! Unlike the popular belief, Tennessee isn’t just known for country music. Tennessee is also known for Americana, folk, alternatives, Soul, Blue, Rock and Roll, and Bluegrass! Nashville is more than just country music (especially East Nashville). Although Nashville is the buckle of the Bible Belt, it’s not all filled with bible-thumping folks. Biggest cities in Tennessee are: Memphis, Nashville, Clarksville, Murfreesboro, Chattanooga, Franklin, Jackson, Knoxville, and Johnson City. Tennessee’s State song is Rocky Top, and its nickname is the Volunteer State.
Person 1: I’m from Tennessee
Person 2: are you a fan of the Volunteers of UT Knoxville
Person 1: yes, and I’ll always be!
Tennessee is one of the most beautiful states in the country. In East Tennessee, everywhere you look you can see a hill or mountain in the background. Tennessee maybe in the Bible Belt, and yes there are a lot of Christians, but what many people don’t know if Tennessee is also very diverse. The middle school I went to was the most diverse school in the county, and my friend group alone had people from all of the world. Many people think that Tennessee is a bunch of hillbillys, while it is true that there are a lot, they live in certain parts of Tennessee. We say “y’all” a lot and we do like to go outdoors but even in Tennessee you will get made fun of for having a country accent or listening to country music. We are not just stupid hicks, we get a good education. And NO WE DO NOT MARRY OUR COUSINS. And if you ever visit Tennessee, do not try to use a country accent because we can tell if it’s fake.
Are you from Tennessee because your the only ten I see ;)

Here is what you need to know if you come to Tennessee from a northern state:
-We can usually pick you out of a crowd. Not in a bad way, but know that we know you're not from around here.
-Tennesseeans are hugely fond of their guns. If you are anti-firearm, you'll definitely be uncomfortable here. We use our guns only for protection and hunting (unless they're a criminal, in which case NO state differs there).
-Staple drinks include sweet tea and Mountain Dew. Staple foods include bacon, grits, and biscuits. These are NOT stereotypes. Cornbread is another big staple food around here.
-Some slang words you'll here: Y'all (which can be used for groups of 2 or more people), Hee Haw (laughing), Buggy (shopping cart), Over Yonder (that can be anywhere, so pay attention to finger points), Younguns (children), Britches (pants), Fixin' to (about to do something), Gussied up (dressed up nicely), Vermin (annoying animals, also used for children).
-Many of the more "redneck" Tennesseans are easily spotted by their use of plaid, flannel, denim, and overalls.
-Almost every person in Tennessee (if they were born and raised here) has known all the words to at least the first couple of verses of Rocky Top since they first started talking. It is very nearly our anthem.
See y'all when you come to town!
Welcome to Tennessee, y'all! Here's you a buggy for your grocery shopping, a gun for hunting, and a big pitcher for your sweet tea.
