A northerner who moves to Texas may be a Yankee transplant or a
Damnyankee. During the '80s "Let's all move to Texas" decade, "Native
Texan" became a popular bumper sticker. I still see Yankee transplants
with stickers that say: "Not a Native Texan.....but I got here as quick
as I could!" Yankee transplants can make great Texans. Just being born
here doesn't make you better than others, just luckier! Damnyankees can
easily be spotted in crowds if you listen. They spend most of all
coversations complaining about everything from weather to politics, and
think their purpose on earth is to tell the rest of us how things are
done so much better "up north".

DamnYankees is one word that refers to folks that move to the south, not just
visit and go home. And if they ever knew how to drive on snow and ice they
sure don't show it here. Us smart southerners just stay home.
