Oh I know it. I’ve got the heavy drawl and I’ve taken it around the world with me. Depending on who I’m talking to I can crank it up and get by with some shit. I’ve also got that Texas preacher cadence when I need it. You know the one, you get really excited about something then drop it down to almost a whisper while smiling. It makes people lean in and pay attention. Think Kenneth Copeland but as an actual human instead of a devil in a skin suit and without religion at all.
It’s definitely a trick for the snake oil salesman but I’ve seen it so much that I naturally fall into it if I’m presenting. And it fucking works with certain kinds of people.
You fucking monster!!!
Naw I’m a sweetheart!
That’s what all the monsters say
Well… you ain’t wrong
You know what? I know the struggle. I’m a country ass Texas boy who just wants equality for everyone.
You’re as rare a breed as myself sir, if we ever find a Mississippi equivalent we’ll really be in business! Egalitarianism is worth fighting for
With our good ol boy accents no one will be able to say no to us, and we’ll use our powers only for good.
Dude I’m not in the south anymore and it’s kinda wild how far the accent takes you
Surely this powerful triumvirate can’t go wrong
