If you can't pronounce Hey-HI-Ra...you ain't from Georgia ...there is this liquor store right off I-75 at the 41 Highway/122 exit that used to get my business on the way to Florida (only opened it when we got to our destination)

A couple were driving through a small town with a shitload of traffic lights. They noticed that the towns name was spelled Winder.
After the 27th red light, they were arguing if it was called WInder as in a clock spring, or WINDer as in shut the winder, its cold outside.
The argument ensued as a train went through town. They pulled up to get some food at the burger joint and asked the lady serving them.
'Hey! How the hell do you pronounce the name of this damn place?' She flipped them off and said slowly 'D-A-I-R-Y Q-U-E-E-N' !

I grew up just south of there. We called it OOTTE-wah. It used to be “out in the country”. Not so much now.
