Well mine is clinically insane so them mongoose aren't going to castrate themselves

Mine doesn't 😭

Even in the north that is terrifying

@@kaliferguson2232 Talking to someone is a two way street. Sometimes you have to start. Maybe even several tries.

@@ConstantChaos1 That should make for some interesting conversations. My sister was nuts and she would talk about some of the strangest things. You just go along with it and everything will be fine.

Agree! LOL

Yes, that's exactly what I thought!

My husband was stunned by how good it was.

No... no, it's so cringe... The head and shoulder mannerisms are fine, but the voice and especially facial expressions are way overdone.

I was just thinking the same, the facial expression and vocal tone is spot on.

Muffled Laughter.

KILL IT, KILL IT WITH FIRE!

I'm from metro-Detroit and even I get the regular grits at the supermarket. If I'm in a rush for breakfast, I'll just have an energy drink.

Me too!

You nailed it, I thought: "HER MOTHER"! DOAH!

I said, “It’s Memaw!”

Except it shoulda been mamaw or granny.

Me too ​@@Happybidr

lol

Perish the thought.

The horror

"No self respecting southerner uses instant grits"

Yeah, I was waiting for the Psycho sound effect. They should have put that in

Even worse Northern New Jersey.

Today on the Twilight Zone: The south goes yankee.

So True I'm from Tennessee

@@lukeclodfelter347 I was going to say New York, but the people in the video weren't big enough assholes.

@@lukeclodfelter347, it's interesting how the word hoagie is so universally ascribed in Jersey. If you asked for a hoagie in PA, they'd give you deli meats on bread with a splash of oil. Anything else is a sub.

Come to Houston. I'm originally from New Orleans where it's laid back, Houston is a whole different animal.

That's exactly the point, that things normally don't move fast in the South; this is the dystopia for which Shelby had wished.

@@brandonellis8111 I know I hate Houston. I am from Jacksonville in East Texas. It's the sticks out there. I like it slow like that lol.

Another thing that makes no sense I went to Mexico to be southern

We are 3 days from anything. Try ordering parts or even fast food is slow

Geat series....

Love me some cheesy grits and shrimp

😋!

Kiss my Grits! :)

🙌🙌

Did y’all watch it? They were supposed to look bad

I really like the guy playing Rod Sterling. Absolutely magnificent. And, the voice was perfect.

@@BryanTorok Serling but yes, he nailed it!

They did! I wish they would write for the next remake. I mean,we all know they'll do another.

@Joseph H. Camerlengo aight B! 🤣

@Joseph H. Camerlengo that’s dope. I loved not to far from there. We used to call it “Killah County”. We were something else 😂

@Joseph H. Camerlengo your parents were geniuses for moving so you could grow up there. NYC is for the birds. The prices for real estate make no sense and I have PTSD from subway rats and roaches.😩

I was driving in New York City a few years ago. I noticed the INSTANT a light turned green, somebody behind me would start honking and honking and honking...

@@SimpsonDG so true! No time to breathe!

I saw that!!!😁

Lol. I didn't notice it at first for some reason.

Cool

Like George Bailey in IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE!

Yes, you guys absolutely captured the mystique of the Twilight Zone!

You are so right!!

Yup!!

I agree!

Yesssss.

I wish it were.

Definitely

It would!

I moved from Illinois to Texas and it was the opposite.

When I got married we moved to North Carolina from D.C. I was so shocked when I would leave a phone message and people took 3 days to return the phone call! In D.C., they would call back that same day.

@@Happybidr, yeah. It’s ridiculous.

Excellent point

That would probably cause me to call the FBI CIA and every government service that could deal with aliens cause that ain’t my grandma

So true...I’d think my grandma was victim of a home invasion robbery if she was in a rush.

That line legit shocked me 😂

Not in the Northwest. Particularly that city with the coffee😃

Hahahahaha!

Hope to never be in the Cattywampas Zone

It's been 30 years since I read the Hinds County Gazette in Raymond, MS, but the local news was always about who the writer ran into at the post office or the Methodist church. Sometimes there would be the goings on at the Baptist church, but they never took notice of us Presbyterians.

@@susanbreton508 I have a baaad feeling I am already there.Socorro!!!

followed by medical goings on and how their kids are.

No you didn't.

@ You donk know what grits are? Boy I love em. Grits are [G]irls [R]aised [I]n [T]he [S]outh.

@ The proper question is "what is grits?" (Seriously; not a Southern joke. Grits is singular, like flour. It's a variant pronunciation of "grist", i.e., ground grain.) Grits is ground corn, which is cooked in hot water like cornmeal mush. It's a common breakfast food, and often served as a side-dish at other meals. There are a few different kinds; hominy grits, for example, is made with hominy. (That is, corn soaked in lye until it's soft.)

INSTANT!

Sadly I learned this fact (that you *can* mess up grits) in Tulsa Oklahoma! I ordered cheese grits. I got instant grits with a slice of cheese food on top, not even melted! O_O It was very sad... (And revolting!)

Oh god! They're INSTANT! LOL that got me too! Loved it! I think I'll go back to buying grits I used to love making those all the time and since they are a grain they really don't have much in the way of carbs!

Ain't that the truth - I moved to Springfield, IL from Louisiana, when I was 23 and it was just like this episode. Thank God I live in Georgia now.

@@winstonchurchill3597 Really? I moved from Chicago to Springfield and it's more relaxed here.

@@CortexNewsService Well I did find my wife of going on 30 years in Springfield - so there's that.

Unless you go to Dallas City😉

I would,too!

Me too and I am a western boy

Me five! I'd love to see this at least featured as an occasional episode in the TV show they're starting.

Yes!

It would have been instant tea.

Couldn't have tea in the glass because it takes too long to brew.

Or worse, it could have been unsweetened tea.

Disturbed0824 what’s wrong with unsweetened tea.

@@olly2027 If you like bitter, brownish water, nothing at all. Real Southerners avoid it.

It's called Germany!

@@solomon525 I live in Germany. Just saying...

Nah, the North is much faster than this. This would be the north on a long weekend or a hurricane alert.

As a guy from Michigan, that is an accurate statement. Let's just say, life's too fast up here for me.

Michael Szyperski come on down buddy we will be glad to have y’all 😂👍🏻

@@bacathey LOL

Southern hospitality is something that I didn't realize until I went to Cali for vacation

@@bacathey Same with me. I still smile and nod at strangers.

That is the best! Love it.

Wortem14 except in Pennsylvania. Here, we are more like the south than any other state that isn’t in the south.

The Midwest can be pretty friendly and chatty, too, eh?

@@nickr2351 that's what y'all like to think 😂

*Potomac

Mainer and I go out to play in the river, panning for gold. I adjust my butt, and apologize for splashing him, saying I had to move because my butt was pinched. *total dead stare* “Okay”. North and South in a nutshell.

@@chachwa9970 yes ! Definitely like the twilight zone!!!

Right? I was going to say the same thing!

YES !! (Actually, New York City.)

Not all New Yorkers (or any one state) has all the same type folks smh. I, for one am from Harlem & not a rude person ever...Such stereotypes !

Rochester, NY yup Spot on

chadzwife1 585 here too it’s exactly how it is here lol

@@msv6674 It's a generalized idea obviously, but there's a worldwide pattern. People in cities, are especially in hurry and rude because they actually can't spare time. The strict time schedule of offices will fuck up anyone. Towns or rural areas are often places where everyone knows everyone, and it's not that big of a deal if you are late.

As a Southerner who moved to the Bay Area, I can testify (a) no one who has not lived / extensively visited the South / slow paced part of the US will understand and (b) I live in the katywampus zone every day here. I had a family friend visit me here, and I needed to find this video for them. 😂

​@@ConspicuousCreationI visited the South several times but never lived there, however in Minnesota we tend to be polite and don't interrupt people like that cashier did, that one stood out to me the most.

@Ringo Garvin I seem to recall a few Twilight Zones that didn't have a twist, just the mounting horror that "This is the way it is and always will be"

Agreed ... the camera work, the music, ... very well done.

@Ringo Garvin - Hey, Talia twisted her body a little when she fell down right there at the end.

That's all ya'll!

Thank you, Devin!

@@ItsaSouthernThing This was Great and you're hearing this from a true Southern Belle from Texas.

The way she stumbles around town looking increasingly panicked is also just like the original series

As a NYer that moved to the south. We will run you over if you get to close to the road and you can’t cook something you’ve never heard of haha

@@ickess Sounds like you're proud of attemptive murder. I've been to NY, most people I've met are totally chill and awesome. Maybe you need to take some deep breaths and reassess your priorities. ✌

I live in NY (upstate), it's not like that at all.

@@forestnymphconfessions3596 I believe they were referencing the scenes in the video. It was a joke.

That or East Texas...

Or Houston!

Elwood Blues, is it really that bad there?

@@neoleomedia1676 - I typically fly into the airport and immediately head to SETX, so I don't have a lot of experience in Houston. I have some, though, and it sure don't feel like Texas. It's about as rushed as any big city in other states, and people are about as friendly as in other places. A telling point: Sheila Jackson-Lee would be shouted off the stage if she spewed her nonsense anywhere else in Texas, but in Houston, she's been reelected to the House of Representatives every two years!

Or California

Cville Va is the same way now. I grew up here but I do most of my business in the valley where the small town ways are still alive. People still have time for others and treat you like one of their own.

@@leegraves101 Out of curiosity, how do they treat those who aren't like "one of their own" ? 🤔

@@geoben1810 Cold and callous, like they do “up north”

What does "PC" have to do with anything? Everything isnt politics. ANnd not everyone from the South is a Right WIng stereotype. Cut that shit out.

@@MLBlue30 Those who have been influenced by the ultra-prevalent Neo-Marxism hate traditional culture of any sort, especially European culture and even more especially the culture of the American South.

NYC sucks

@@MsTammi125 I won't disagree, but the South is no better. In fact with its stronger heat, bigger bugs, and fake smiling people who stab you in the back, the South might be worse.

Nice recreation of style.

Persistent Dreams Kudos, indeed 🤗

Outside of NYC, the state is actually pretty chill and they'll talk your head off. I got lost there and the lady at a NY gas station gave me directions to a town about 200 miles away, also gave me her number in case I needed help again. She was an absolute angel.

The funny part was her giving me these very southern directions, "Go around this huge curve, looks like you're in the middle of nowhere, go waaaay past that, there's a store, Idk the name but it's got a bear on the sign, go a mile or two down and turn left then just keep on doing and there will be a field or ten, you wanna go waaaaay past that...." LMAO, I somehow made it and got a smartphone a week later. 😆😆🤣

that's twisting the knife

And/or with an Orange County sign.

That's hell, not the Caddywampus Zone

Aaahahahaha

Loved the southern-style screen door on the opening door, too!

True. Instant grits are tasteless.

Funny, I thought of that exact line when that happened.

But they did

Yeah, don't add butter.

Oh I've seen it myself

That’s really the only unrealistic part about this… a southern saying you can’t mess up grits. Wouldn’t be said. Very possible

When she said "instant grits" I had to 😂😂😂, that would do it.

It was there.. Just subtly. The FULL cold water glass tipped me off. I was like, "wait... where is the tea? Ooooh.... I see they didn't have time to brew it😂😂😂😂" but I agree, if it were pointed out it would have been hilarious

A hot tea would have been worse...unless it is a hot toddy, of course!

😵 Someone, get this girl 👚 some shrimp and grits, 👖 and with some seasoning 👢 on them! Get it quick! And make sure it taste good.

Moments With Claudeene , I do mine similar and put soft fried eggs on the fried grits and season with salt and black pepper ! Greetings from south Louisiana ! " ⚜

It would've been worse if it was unseasoned chicken. 😂

I have a friend who moved to Georgia from NY and it used to FREAK HIM OUT that strangers spoke in passing and would get nervous when ppl waved from their yards when driving by. Now it is his favorite thing and always speaks first 😭

jeff, here along the Coast, they sometimes say a Yankee is anyone who lives north of I-10. It's all a matter of perspective.

In NJ once in a card store and started talking to the people in line . They looked at me like I was crazy . Love sharing in NC !

Dee Blah In Texas, the larger cities South of I-10 are as liberal as it gets. It's gotta be the salt water. East coast, west coast, and South of 10 are mostly liberal.

@@CM-ve1bz When we lived in Texas in the 90's, Austin was the most liberal place in the state. Coastal Mississippi (admittedly with some exceptions) still leans to the conservative side.

♥️

Exactly, southerners will laugh at themselves and then make a joke about themselves, whereas northerners and people out west in California takes every little thing in life serious, that's why they are depressed all the time, they are always pissed off at petty shit.

@@freedomfest2741 absolutely sir.

.....huh.....Shut...up!!!....LOL!

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, hiking in the backwoods since age 8. First time I had grits was a couple of days into Basic Training. It seemed like Bland oatmeal, so I added a pinch of sugar, and some coco beverage powder. One of my Drill Sergeants (from rural Georgia) witnessed me eating it... Truly shocked, he asked what I had done?!? He was appalled that I would Eat it like that! He appeared to be Nauseated! He was a Tough, Taciturn Drill Sergeant, but to him, what I did was Revolting, so much so he didn't harass me for it. Like most smart Trainees, I gobbled as much food as possible in the few minutes we had... "EAT NOW, TASTE LATER!" I never did get used to Grits, and never ate them after graduating from Airborne School at Fort Benning.

I was waiting for the Psycho shower scene sound effect

Yep. Turns out you can absolutely mess up grits…

@@paladinsix9285 the chocolate’s a little odd, but there’s two camps of grits people: the butter/sugar folks and the gravy or cheese folks, who pretty much horrify each other. Somebody’s bound to be offended, if nothing else by the cement left in the bottom of the bowl. Instant grits don’t get the chance to cook out the gritty texture, so aren’t the best introduction to the dish.

You know I think that might be why I didn't like grits very much the couple times I had them.

Christian Start people in the west and north don’t know grits. Things move fast in the South. Hilarious. I was stationed in Tenn. MD. & Northern Fla. four years of the south. Tenn was probably 2-3 years behind

I felt that pain when she said it😂

LMAO, classic

Copied comment

Serving Instant Grits is a class B misdemeanor in the South. It's as bad as serving a Coke without a plastic straw.

Y'all
