Are you a redneck?

You Might Be A Redneck

John did you ever get down to the Shoals? (Not that I've ever hit any redneck bars or anything...)

"connoisseur of the finer points of redneck life" haha nice . And why wouldn't I think to be the case, well I suppose I don't picture the typical redneck type making a living on his computer.

Why yes I am
"Rednecks truly feel sorry for the poor *******s who work their asses off for eight years in college only to become corporate slaves; all that hard work just to get a decent BMW and a Rolex. You see, a real Redneck would never feel the need to brag or ever think to mention to hard working yuppies that the 80 acre family farm is worth eight million dollars, and of that, five million is in farm equipment that is only used a few weeks each year"
I just don't have a big farm, or the 8 mil

:rolleyes:

I'm a British redneck and proud of it.

All those poncy up their own wotsits people who judge others because of where they're born or what religion they are or the colour of their skin or the fact they live in a trailer or a Mongolian ghert - so friggin' what! Who gives a stuff?!

I couldn't give a flying fig what colour skin a wo/man man has, for all I care they could be bright purple with large yellow circles painted on their body, who gives a flying monkeys? I certainly don't.

What I have noticed is that generally speaking it doesn't matter what your background is, who you are or where you're from or what you live in. An idiot crosses all social boundaries.

And truly intelligent people come from every background imaginable under the sun. In my mind... it matters not whether you're upper class, middle class or working class - everyone is equal in my book.

I've worked right at the very top of corporate America, lived the lifestyle, seen and heard it all.

I've worked in London for a leading think tank.

I've mixed with people and still do to this day from every social background possible. Paupers, homeless people, millionaires and even a couple of billionaires - underneath it all people are people and it's what's on the inside of a person that counts, nothing else.

I mean look at these guys, they're having bloody great fun, good on 'em...


Blimey!

Definitely my kind of people.

Who cares whether someone is a redneck? It's just a label. That's all it is. Everyone wanting to label something or someone. It just gets exceedingly tiresome to listen to sometimes and winds me up no end.

I've enjoyed brilliant conversations with people living on the street. And completely idiotic conversations with extremely wealthy people at the other end of the scale.

Take sleep for example... sleep doesn't give a flying hoot what you sleep on or in, it just does it's thing. It matters not whether you go to sleep in a solid gold four poster bed or in a tent in a sleeping bag at the top of a mountain. When you're horizontal, fast asleep, sleep is bloody sleep and you wake up feeling just as refreshed as the next wo/man ready to take on the day ahead. It's completely unjudgmental.

Same with sitting on the bog. Your tummy muscles don't care for the fact you sit on a diamond encrusted loo or whether like me, you sit on a plastic porta-potti in the back of an old van. Your crap stinks just as bad as the next wo/mans.

We're all the bleedin' same. It's about time we got rid of all these silly divisions and started treating everyone the same. The world would be a better place that's for certain.

What we need is a few more rednecks!

Now don't be hatin' on me, Charlie said it!

There are two types of foreigners, GMT. (Defined as anyone above Tennessee.)

There are those who are mystified and think they might kinda like rednecks although they are scary, wild, and unpredictable, and then there are those liberal northern types who hate and despise rednecks without valid reason.

It is a fact, though, that some of our best non-redneck southerners come from your neck of the world, Jolly Ol. Ashley Wilkes and Scahlut Ohara are two examples. Even ol Patrick McGoohan was a redneck judge for a short film stint.

It is therefore a fact that Brits CAN speak redneck Engrish when they want to... instead of their normal sissified language. It is a puzzlement, even to the debonaire tea and biscuit chomping Brit folk and U.S. type rednecks, but it is a bonafide.

On the other hand, yankees CAN NOT speak excellent redneck. You can spot em a mile off! ( "Hey youse guys got some shine for us visiting rednecks over here?")

Bye ya'll

I certainly don't know why people have a tendency to view Rednecks in a bad light.

Anyone who gets a Barbie Doll made in their image is deemed special!
