Sue's slow and rich Southern Drawl rolled from smiling lips like molasses in October

molasses- [noun]
thick dark syrup produced by boiling down juice from sugar cane; especially during sugar refining

Now the mental picture of someone randomly drooling 'dark, thick syrup', like Jennifer in 'Jennifer's body' is stuck in my mind.

[edited to fix some ( Read more... )

doesn't mean what you think it means, purple prose

It's cold in October, depending on where you are. So even if that simile didn't bring up really weird images, that just means Sue would talk llllllliiiiiiiiiiiiikkkkkkkkkkeeeeeeeeeee ttttttthhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssss.

That would be the single most frustrating conversation in history. D:

Oh dear, I hadn't even thought about that! I swear, this woman isn't a bad writer per se, but she keeps writing things like 'He hissed with malice and torture, blood and murder in his voice' which make me go "......"

So... she's an Ent...?

Or like the redneck trees from Something Positive.

HAH! It is so annoying, actually. I'm from Canada and I talk fairly fast. I have a friend that moved to Alabama and then Texas and she adopted their accent and now it takes forever for her to finish a freaking sentence because of the drawl-plus, I guess, they talk slow there? I don't know.

Yep. It's not quite as bad in North Carolina, but still, I can finish three sentences in the time it takes the locals to say one and make them coherent. And whenever I talk fast, they say I must be from up north. (I'm not really, but I'm a Yankee by blood, so I usually leave it at that.) I guess it's a regional thing.

Never found Texan or Carolinian accents any slower by nature than a good thick Albertan.

Ugh, my in-laws are from Georgia and it's the same. A 2 minute explanation can take 10-15. It's exactly that - the drawl and slow formation of words.
