Oakland tried to cash in with the Feds by labeling Black slang, "Ebonics," as a language. The southern states have decided to pursue some of that endless taxpayer money pipeline through Washington by designating Southern slang, or "Hickphonics," as a language to be taught in all Southern schools. A speaker of this would be a Hickophone. Here are excerpts from the Hickphonics/English dictionary:HEIDI - noun. Greeting.
