It's not "You ain't from around here"
It's "Y'all.... ain't... from... around... here"

Y'all stop making fun of us down here, or we ain't going to fry y'all some catfish and grits when y'all come on back down here.
Besides y'all talk funny! lol

popped for the clip and the warning about the oysters. Already know, wish I didn't.

Lol. I've lived in Texas since I was 1 and some of this is SO true. Unfortunately, I came from Oklahoma, which is even slightly worse.

Northern girls say "you may".
Texas girls say "Y'all may".

Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later
how to use  it.
2.  Just because you can drive on snow and ice does not mean we
can.  Just  stay home the two days of the year it snows.
3.  If you do run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in
the cab of  a four wheel drive with a 12-pack of beer and a tow chain
will be along  shortly.  Don't try to help them. Just stay out of their
way.
This is  what  they live for.
4.  Don't be surprised to find movie rentals & bait in the same store.
5.  Remember: "Y'all" is singular. "All y'all" is plural. "All
y'all's"  is  plural possessive.
6.  Get used to hearing, "You ain't from around here, are you?"

Chili does NOT have beans in it.
13. Brisket is not 'cooked' in an oven

It'll cool down-in December.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://downhereintexas.com/text/AdviceTX.txt">17.
