vyrus, you're from California and the guy that wrote this piece is obviously from up east. He sure doesn't understand the South, and I'm sure you only know what you read and see in movies/tv (I've had a similar discussion about this with Nick Douglas as his fiancee is similar and only knows what she has read and what has been portrayed in the media and moreso in movies). The writer of the piece doesn't even know why the Civil War was fought. Also, there aren't any yankees paying for my bridges or for the TVA.

Arrogant, Ignorant, and Liberal. :help:

That person should consider selling their computer and investing their money in a college education.

Blue Necks are Northerners -- the opposite of Rednecks.
Because of Redneck jokes, here are some takes on how Southern folks look at Northerners (or how Northerners sometimes think of themselves) ;)


YOU JUST MIGHT BE A BLUE NECK IF....
....Instead of referring to two or more people as "Y'all," you call them "you guys," even if both of them are women.
....You think barbecue is a verb meaning "to cook outside."
....You think Heinz Ketchup is really SPICY.
....You would never stop to buy something somebody was cooking on the side of the road. (e.g., boiled peanuts).
....You don't have any problems pronouncing "Worcestershire sauce" correctly.
....For breakfast, you would prefer potatoes-au-gratin to grits.
....You don't know what a moon pie is.
....You've never had an R C Cola.
....You've never, ever eaten okra -- fried, boiled, or pickled.
....You eat fried chicken with a knife and fork.
....You've never seen a live chicken, and the only cows you've seen are on road trips.
....You have no idea what a polecat is.
....You don't see anything wrong with putting a sweater on your dog.
....You don't have bangs.
....You drink either "Pop" or "Soda"- instead of "Cokes."
....You've never eaten and don't know how to make a tomato sandwich.
....You have never planned your summer vacation around a gun-'n-knife show.
....You think more money should go to important scientific research at your university than to pay the salary of the head football coach.
....You don't even have one can of WD-40 somewhere around the house.
....The last time you smiled was when you blocked someone from getting on an on-ramp to the highway.
....You don't have any hats in your closet that advertise feed stores.
....You have more than one professional sports team in your home state.
....You call binoculars opera glasses.
....You can't spit out the car window without pulling over to the side of the road and stopping.
....You don't know anyone with at least two first names (i.e., Joe Bob, Faye Ellen, Billy Ray, Mary Jo, Bubba Dean, Joe Dan, Mary Alice)
....You don't know any women with male names (i.e., Tommie, Bobbie, Johnnie, Jimmie)
....You don't have Maw-maw's & Pawpaw's.
....You get freaked out when people on the subway talk to you.
....None of your fur coats are homemade.

Pretty accurate, but this line is pure bullshit. I grew up in NW Wisconsin and my first jobs were on farms, and if I never see another damn cow against it'll be too soon!
