danz 0 Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 You might be a redneck if.... You've been married 3 times and still have the same in-laws You think Taco Bell is the Mexican Phone Company Your state's got a new law that says when a couple get divorced, they are still legally brother and sister Your house still has the "WIDE LOAD" sign on the back You got stopped by a state trooper. He asked you if you had an I.D., and you said "'bout what?" N on A thletic S prot C reated A round R edneck You think a stock tip is advice on worming' your hogs. Your sister is the third generation of women in your family to conceive a baby as a result of an alien abduction. If you can burp and say your name at the same time, you're shur'nuff a redneck. You think Possum is "The Other White Meat" You think Sherlock Holmes is a housing project down in Biloxi. You carried a fishing pole into Sea World. You hooked up with your present girlfriend as a result of a message on the wall of the mens' room at the Flying J Truck Stop. The centerpiece on your dining room table is an original signed work by a famous taxidermist. You lit a match in the bathroom and your house exploded right off it's wheels. You think there's nothin wrong with incest as long as you keep it in the family. You think the last words to The Star Spangled Banner are "Gentlemen, start your engines." The people on Jerry Springer's show remind you of your neighbors Link to post Share on other sites
amandanism 0 Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 rednecks - originally the name given to the country folk who live in the southern states of america. but the name is given to people that live all over now. "red" "neck" because they are usually farmers who spend too much time in the sun and get burnt. most distinguishable by their driving of a pick up truck and wearing a john deer truckie hat along with their fishing, hunting, lazing around in bars, living in trailers Link to post Share on other sites

MistaSparkle 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 Redneck, as used in the states, can be pretty much any ignorant country folk. Danz already nicely highlighted some stereotypes for you. Link to post Share on other sites

MistaSparkle 0 Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 After all the redneck bashing.... I really feel like everyone overlooked the one great advancement that rednecks have offered to the world: The North American Mullet! Link to post Share on other sites

enderzero 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 If a mullet was an easy hairstyle to just grow on a whim I think you would see a ton of gag mullets goin around right now. Its infamousness is mind boggling. I did see an awesome Japanese dude rockin the mullet the other day. He was completely oblivious. Link to post Share on other sites
