Can I have a description of what a redneck is.what what what



Redneck, noun: a white member of the Southern rural laboring class
Redneck, adjective: narrow, prejudiced, or reactionary: a redneck attitude.


Those definitions are presently inaccurate, no matter the source of them.

A redneck is a person who lives in a rural environment and who has customs and manners that do not conformed to so-called "civilized" society. A redneck can live in any rural environment, not just one in the southeastern USA. Also, a redneck is no more narrow, prejudiced or reactionary than a non-redneck. A person can be a redneck and still judge people according to the content of their character.

Well, let's see. I drive a pickup truck. I say "y'all". In the past, I have had a bowling night. And a dart night. I also learned that the plural of y'all is "all y'all". So I use that, too. I don't smoke, chew or own any guns and I believe that the president is a natural born American citizen. So, I'm not sure if I qualify.

As a child, I spent much time with my mother's family, who lived in a redneck environment. My maternal grandparents kept major appliances out on the front porch. When I visited, my swimming pool was a container like the one shown in the OP. It was made to be used to provide water to livestock.

One summer after a prolonged period of rain, an old washtub became my boat as I floated in the flood water surrounding my grandparents' house. Sometimes, I climbed into the pigpen to play with the pigs. I was the last member of my family to be toilet trained in an outhouse.
It was not unusual to have to chase chickens out of the house.

A half mile up the dirt road from my grandparents was the home of my mother's first-cousin, who lived in a mobile home. Occasionally the front yard was the parking lot for a car that wasn't mobile. Next door to the cousin were his parents, who lived in a house that resembled one lived in by the Beverly Hillbillies before they moved to Beverly Hills. The the family had a large raccoon for a pet. It's name was George, and he had his own pet door going into the house. The door was a cabinet door below the kitchen sink.

The first vehicle that I ever drove was my grandfather's tractor. I have eaten squirrel. I have picked okra, and I have seen a chicken running around without its head. The first fishing pole that I ever used did not have a reel. I have been pecked by hens while collecting eggs.

So, I am at least half-redneck. You got a problem with that?

Plenty of rednecks affirm that the current President of the USA is a natural-born US citizen.

I can shoot a rabbit from 1231.4 feet, but I don't know how to operate a table napkin.

I can walk through walls with my trusty pickup, but I don't know which way is up.

I feeeeeeel the love of Sweet Jesus, that's why I beat my wife daily.

I go to bars, and in a half hour there I forget why.

I know all the letters of the alphabet, except the big O, the small l, the medium exclamation mark, and the redline method.

I may look like my heart is crusty, but I do wear my d*ck on my sleeve, as well as my sn*t, and the menu for the last seven suppers.

I go to cross burnings, but I still haven't figured out why start a fire when it's so hot.

I don't know the difference between a toothpick, a hammer, and a missile silo, but everybody tells me that that's okay.

My buddy and me like to share experiences.

I know what you do on Friday nights for fun. You go and tie a railway, and flagellate yourself with a cat-0-nine-tails, while kow-towing in your own direction.

It possibly does, all I know is he was so proud when he learned it I got a phone call laugh Of course, he might have even played against one of his friends that plays the electric guitar. It'll be interesting to ask when he comes home for a visit this coming fall laugh Of course then if he brings the banjo and plays it for his brother's wedding march up the aisle.... I guess we'd be real rednecks then rofl

I think Iced tea is perfectly all right to have with breakfast.
I have eaten rattlesnake at the Rattle Snake Round up. Tastes like KFC.
Denim cut offs and boots are an entire outfit for the weekend.
Ranch dressing can replace mayo for everything.
My dogs have thier own couch.
I have done the stock tank/hot tub thing. Just add a cap of bleach every few days.
I think my sister is good looking.

Dueling Banjos was actually played with one banjo and one acoustic guitar.

Deliverance being a redneck flick...I figure they figured that no one would notice...especially after Ned Beatty got raped by the hillbilly.
