Years ago there was a low-budget TV sitcom called Mel's Diner. It was supposed to take place in Arizona. Funny thing was that all the 'locals' spoke with a Texas accent. π
I'm thinking of the right show right...Alice saying "Kiss my grits!"?
If that's the right one, that's pretty darn funny!!

P.S. Remora, you're good people and that's all there is to say about that! π

10. Northern Kentucky is totally different. We have Thunder Over Louisville, University of Louisville, magnet schools, plenty of vegetarians, we don't look like rednecks, barely anyone hunts, very few people smoke/drink heavily/do drugs (compared to the percentage of people that do in Southern Kentucky), and we do not have southern accents.
Originally posted by BlackTemplarI live in a town where most people take pride in someone calling them a redneck. I have been considered that myself. Nowadays, people would "categorize" me as a country boy. I can't stand (but do tolerate) ignorant people that assume that a redneck or country boy are prejudice. MOST of us around here are not. It's not like we are all around here saying that "The South Is Gonna Rise Again".π
Calling somone a redneck use to be a compliment. You knew they worked for a living doing honest work. Now days most things seem to be turned into insults by those who need to make themselves feel better about who they are. R is a great kid and very intelligent from what I have seen on RHP.
Peace be to you.

If you believe a pentagram is a Western Union message to 5 people
If your altar cloth says Holiday Inn or Howard Johnson's

Or your God statue looks a little too much like Elvis Presley
If you have ever written a spell on the back of a Denny's menu
If you have ever cancelled a coven meeting to watch Pay-Per-View wrestling on TV
Or if you have cast a love spell on livestock. you are definitely a Redneck Pagan.

I sometimes think people on the east coast have only the most superficial knowledge of the southwestern states, excepting California. Greta Van Susteren of Fox News kept saying that the Bush/Kerry debate was at the "University of Arizona in Tempe." BONK! WRONG!
