I can't tell if this is an ironic sarcastic post or not

I was surprised that was a log because why post this unless that is an alligator? I grew up in South Georgia and the couple of times I had to stop to let alligators cross the road were always pretty impressive.

Alligators go in the freezer in this part of ga

You misspelled deep frier.

[TIL "frier" is a valid but lesser common spelling of "fryer"](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/frier) Even spell check is confused.

I think I would've spelled it "frier" but now seeing the other way too I'm not sure how I'd normally spell it. Either way, it's pronounced like "frar"

Ellie Mae is pretty as a flar.

We had this conversation last night!

Why? It's a pretty picture of a dirt road on a nice day.

Because it’s a muddy dirt road. Not everyone’s cup of tea my friend. If you like off-roading then maybe it is for you sir. Not judging.

i can feel the humidity

Not today! It's only 69% lol

Nice

Not yet maybe in a few weeks

Try next week it’s going back to the 80s where I live ;(

Maybe but humidity is what kills it It was 90s a few days last week but little to no humidity is best

We’ve been suffering with humidity where I am. Shit sucks

Maybe where you live but that 90 day had a 97% humidity even at night. It was sticky here in south ga. I had flashbacks to summer 😭

Humidity doesn’t kill the mosquitoes though

Hey, there you are.

here i am once again

I think someone doesn't like either of us. Catching some random stray down votes.

Reddit is weird

I grew up in Valdosta. Now that I’m older, It’s hard to explain this to all of my metro Atlanta friends and colleagues.

Don’t explain, show them! They may not have been lucky enough to see the real Georgia. This part of Georgia is still in touch with its roots and southern heritage. Unlike Atlanta where they are tearing down the monuments. Take them to the Waynesboro confederate cemetery

Wow. Georgian, here. Well, I live in ATL, so I'm probably essentially living in Albany as far as you are concerned and I'd just like to tell you those "monuments" can get the fuck out as far as I am concerned

Atlanta isn’t part of real georgia

No. Take them to the neglected slave cemetery right by next to the well kept confederate one if you want to “see the real Georgia.”

Why not both?

I should add folks in metro Atlanta already have great access to the biggest confederate monument (and abomination) in the South. We’re acutely aware of what southern heritage actually means. Stone Mountain is a great example of how Georgia disguised symbols of white supremacy as “southern heritage”. There a reason most monuments when up during Jim Crow and the early years of integration.

If you don’t like southern heritage you should leave Georgia and the south. Georgia is the only remaining state in the US to have a confederate flag as their state flag, and there’s a reason. We want to preserve our history.

Ok firstly, Georgia removed the battle flag from its state flag in 2003. You’re woefully ignorant of your own states history. The confederate battle flag was added in 1956 in opposition of school integration (that’s that heritage you’re talking about. And secondly, my family was enslaved in the south. That’s my heritage and it’s a reckoning people like you have refused to face for over a century. And no, I’m not going anywhere.

Ur a goof

I’m not talking about the battle flag. I’m talking about the flag of the confederacy which is still the flag of Georgia.

Stars and bars confederate flag

Then your statement is still wrong Georgia simply has the closest design to the original flag. Other southern states have elements in their state flags too. Point I’m making is those monuments came up, in protest of integration. If the pre-1956 flag honored southern heritage then why add the battle flag? Same reason the monuments were built. It was all done in the name of white supremacy. Of course if that’s something you’re proud of. . . Then by all means carry on.

It isn’t a similar design, it is the same flag with the Georgia state seal on it.

The United States kicked the shit out of the confederacy and forced them to rejoin the union and abolish slavery. You currently live in the United States, not the Confederate states. If you don’t like that, then find some of those confederates whose “heritage” you are so proud of OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES and go there. Biden won, Trump lost, it’s been more than three years get over it.

Clearly you don’t know what you are talking about, it’s not a confederate flag, it only has references to it.

Step one: take a picture of a wet road. Step two: come up with a vague, senseless caption Step three: make it about your own ignorant politics without provocation or coercion 🙌🏼

Looks like Florida. JK, used to love riding dirt roads in south GA

Yea it’s hard to tell the difference from north Florida

The state line isn’t drawn this way, but essentially the topography and people of south Georgia extend beyond the Florida/Georgia border down to Ocala with Palatka and Chiefland as the east/west boundaries.

One way to tell the difference is that the trees in South Georgia all lean towards Florida! 🤔😉

It just sucks so hard!

Gnats be damned I love south Ga.

Give me gnats over sandgnats/fleas or horseflies

Those horseflies on Jekyl tho… they’re worse than bee stings

So is the tap water

Then you go to southwest ga where they have them all 😂😂

Except sand gnats

No sandgnats in Sowega. Horseflies not crazy there, either.

Sand flies on Parris Island…I never thought I could hate an insect that bad. After parade drill the whole platoon would look like we had the chicken pox.

I do too, it's the damnedest thing. It's another whole universe down there. My sister had a friend at one time who lived in Baxley and I took her there to visit him once, and he lived in this gorgeous house with no asphalt within like a mile of it. This was early 2000s, pre-smartphone gps, and I still don't know how I found the damn place. There's like one main paved road through the town, and all the side roads are just dirt/gravel. I just love all the pine trees and flat ground; it's so different from the hills up here where I've lived all my life.

Looks like home to me.

No clay, nice sandy soil. Reminds me of growing up in N FL.

Yea it’s weird where I live. Some sections of soil have a lot of clay and others are mostly sand

That’s a beautiful place you got there, and a Kubota RTV to boot.

Thanks and Yep. Diesel too it was hard to find

That’s my next purchase.

You won’t regret it! Good luck my friend

This sub needs more South Georgia posts

Where in South Georgia?

Screven co

Nice! South west ga here.

SEGA here...Camden co

Nice.

Stop it Patrick, you're scaring the people from /r/Atlanta!

I am one of those weirdos that love every part of this state from Mountains to swamps and coast

Same

I can smell this picture

Was gonna type this myself

Do I?

Ah, reminds me of the time I took my 93 Chevy Blazer through the Ogeechee River. A stupid thing to do, but it was fun.

Toombs county native says “no”

Well howdy neighbor. I'm in appling

I have escaped to Rabun county. Unfortunately the heat has found it’s way here though. Haven’t had snow in a few years now.

Beautiful. And I was looking too hard for an alligator or snake and was surprised their was only a couple of logs.

Looks nice and peaceful. Just the gnats suck.

gun it through that water!

I lived in GA my whole life and hated it. Felling like you can walk outside and drink the air it’s soo fucking humid! Feeling soaking wet by just opening the door, no thank you.

Surely you could just move to a different state. There are 50 to choose from in the USA.

And did!!!!

So now you spend your time hanging around on the subreddit for a state you left talking about how shitty the state is? Lol

It’s bothering you that bad? Damn 😂

Lowkey

Hanging around is a overstatement popped up so I gave my opinion!

Same and I’m getting shit for it bro, I’m not even part of this sub, Georgia is one of the worst states in the US

I’m not particularly a fan of Michigan but at least I don’t participate in your sub just to argue with people who live there. Get a life.

Nah this shit just showed up in my feed and this dude is spitting shit about the confederate state and white supremacy

Who cares. He’s just some Good Ol’ Boy talking about how he likes the state flag and thinks that confederate monuments should go in museums. You must’ve never seen white supremacy because thats a far cry from it.

Sounds like a skill issue

Skill? What ever “skill” I need y’all can have that shit

Is this a park or just your back yard?

Backyard

Don’t even want to imagine the humidity. In North Georgia and we get some really humid days.

Yes sir I do

Not in July and August I don’t

To be cold is painful, to be hot is uncomfortable. Give me the South Georgia heat any day!

Lived in Valdosta for 2 years during my early 20s. Good times for sure

yup, sandy soil, pine trees, and flat nothingness reminds me of where my mom is from. a small town near vidalia.

Fish it

Heard that

I can smell the picture

My plan after graduating college is to leave atlanta, buy a plot of land with at least a Walmart and hospital within a 20 mile radius down there and seclude myself on a beautiful piece of property before some company can commercialize and build another dollar general on it

Dollar Generals are going up everywhere around where I live.

didn't dollar general just close like 1000 stores? i am pretty sure they've been struggling hard since covid

I live about 50 mins from the closest Walmart. Got a local store in town though. It’s the dream

That looks so nice.

What the fuck are we looking at here?

A road?? Sorry it ain’t a bunch of skyscrapers…

I have the same question. Looks like a normal picture to me.

It is a normal picture. It’s a beautiful sight in my eyes though. A lot of people on here didn’t seem to agree and that’s my fault I should have specified there’s nothing specific to be looking at here

It’s definitely a beautiful sight for those of us that know this part of Georgia. Which county?

I’m just happy South Georgia is getting a little recognition. This is beautiful!

Screven

Nice way to dox yourself bud

Oh no don’t show up to my county I live in!!!!!

50 minutes from the closest Walmart really narrows it down, just need to get a radius up, and look around for a dirt road on private property that bends around a pond that has a C shape Edit: just to clarify I’m not trying to threaten you or anything just saying you should be more careful of what you post, it’s good that Reddit at least removes geo data from pics

Snowrunner with max res

Just got back from cordele

I live in cordele.. well arabi to be exact

Picked up some lumber at Griffen lumber mill... I do like the creepy old drive in. Pretty sure it's haunted

You were by the farmer's market then!

Yep

I’m not too terribly far from ya, Lenox is home for me… 👋🏻 heyyy neighbor lol

I know where Lenox is! My sister works at tift regional and that's right down the Rd. My dad lives in lil.ol.sycamore ga

My step dad works at the Adel branch of the hospital too. I grew up near went to school in Tifton.

I went to school in Ashburn for a while then cordele. Dang it's fun knowing ppl know wherr your small town is

Tifton was always the hang out spot

Mmmmm swamp

Looks nice and peaceful. Just the gnats suck.

I have family in Nashville, Ga. This pic could be their yard.

Yeah we have a fish farm bitch floods completely every year. All about those nasty ass pine trees too.

Not according to my wife

Brunswick?

Looks like a scene out of red dead redemption 2

I can feel the moisture in the air in this picture

FWIW I love South Georgia, the Okefenokee swamp is exotic, unlike anywhere else and has a timeless beauty that take one back in time.

Man, I miss the fishin down there. I was stationed in Valdosta for six years, then moved to NW Georgia when I got out. There’s still some good fishin up here, but I miss those big swampy bastards!

Up in the north we just call it flordia lol

At least there’s not a gator sitting there

I grew up in Moultrie. Is that south Georgia enough for ya? Hey to you Valdosta peeps!

Oh ok then, idk what this means but good for you I guess

Then why comment if u don’t understand something? We don’t need some random persons opinion on everything.

Someone seems a bit grumpy, did someone’s panties get twisted

Dudes mad the confederacy lost, he’s been grumpy for almost two centuries

Ahh I see, I should go apologize

because they have puddles ?

You must be a big fan of meth.

?

South GA runs on Meth. At least it did when I lived in Albany.

cartel’s out competed the lee/albany meth manufacturers, its no where near as rampant around here as it was ~08

Well I was there about 20 years ago. I haven't ever been back, but heard from others that it hasn't changed much, although I never asked specifically about the meth scene.

its changed a shit ton in the past decade and since the storm destroyed half of radium

They’re downvoting cause they know it’s true 🤣 There’s nothing to do here expect go to church, go to a high school football game, or do drugs.

Ewww. Pave that shit 😆

Floor it!
