“bless your heart” is NOT a sign of goodwill that person wants you dead and buried, preferably while they watch from the comfort of their porch rockers
Seriously though bless your heart means fuck you in south
Actually though it’s more like an expression of pity It’s like saying “this poor idiot is beyond help lord have mercy on his moronic soul”
Well i learned smth today
In my experience, the other thing you should know is this sentnce: “Bless their heart, they’re doing the best they can.” This sentence, as far as I can translate (my dad was a good Southern kid, but I was raised in Minnesota and flunked my grandmother’s ‘how to be a lady’ lessons), basically means “If this person was burning to death in front of me, I would pour my sweet tea out on the ground before I let a drop touch them.”
