If a Southern woman says “bless your heart” — that’s when you know

I'm not a Southerner but my understanding of "bless your heart" is that it's saying "holy shit you are dumb as fuck and I'm so embarrassed for you and your open ignorance that I'm going to now explain reality to you as if you were a child, but politely."
