My Southern-ness!!!
| Southern Belle/Gent You scored 61 Southern-ness! |
You are a Southern Belle or Souther Gent. You watch Gone with the Wind once a week, sit on the back porch with a fan and glass of lemonade. You aren't the stereotypical Southerner. You give the South a good name. I'll even bet you're descended from General Lee! |

LMAO... and to think I am a Yankee!
I think I might write a post about being a southerner. I have several posts I'd like to write. We'll have to see how it goes. I really need to do the dishes first. :-)
What's the difference between rednecks and trailer park trash?
My blog mate Becca from Texas has been trying to enlighten me, but I am still a tad confused.
Garf~
Here is the difference between "Red Necks" and "Trailer Trash", and believe me there is a HUGE difference. Herewego...
"Red Necks" are hard working blue collar workers, your average bloke, whose job may require them to work outside where their necks might get burned from the sun, hense the term "RED Neck". These people are usually good, church going-God fearing people who are middle class folks. They make up the majority of Americans I would say. They are the "bread and butter" of this country, they pay the majority of the taxes, do the majority of the work and get the least amount of respect from the law makers and the elite.
"Trailer Trash" Keep in mind that not all people who live in trailers or "mobile homes" are "Trailer Trash". David's family lived in a "wobbly box" for 12-13 years or so on a nice piece of property until a few years ago. We lived with them for a while and they are nothing but very upstanding citizens, no trash here folks!
Ok so, "Trailer Trash": These are usually people, who may or may not live in a trailer. They usually live off the government, have too many kids(so they can keep living off the government), have at "least" one car in the yard that would make a suitable planting device(doesn't run, won't run & will never run, but they won't get it hauled off by the junk man.), their kids are usually snot nosed, sticky and dirty (poor babies, they didn't ask to be born, bless them), the mommah will stay home and the daddy will have only a part time gig(enough to buy beer and cigarettes, but not enough to get off of food stamps and government assistance). Most of the laws offer aid to these people who just want to live off the system. These are not stupid people in general, they are lazy people who have figured out how to get a free ride.
Can you tell that I have issues with these type of people??? What little money my husband makes is taken away from my child to feed some lazy ass persons ten kids! That may not be a Christian attitude, but neither is lazing about. God told us to work and by goodness it's good for us! I better stop here before I really go off. If you have anymore questions e-mail me mdhn@earthlink.net. Love ya Garf!
Ivy~ would you agree with at least some of those statements? Seeing as you are another good ole Southern Gal. [g]. :-)

You scored higher than 99% on Southern-ness.
Not bad for a girl from small town Canada.
Ohhhh, and I missed one bit..."You scored 63 Southern-ness!"
Up here in Canada our definition of a redneck is A blue collar white person who is generally regarded as having a bigoted attitude.
REDNECK BABY!
You scored 77 Southern-ness!
Well Howdy thar! Ya'll all are a Redneck! You never saw nothin dead that couldn't be fried. Your family tree doesn't fork. Your best friend is a hog and you consider Hardees fine dining. YEEE HAW! Grab a six pack and dress in your finest Nascar hat. There's gonna be a hootinanny tonight!

Geez, and I hate Nascar so I can't be considered a real redneck.
Besides, I prefer to be a Texan than a Southern Belle. :)
This one must have been a good one. I've gotten more comments...
Hey April! I would agree that there are some "red necks" that are biggots. I've known a fair share of white collar people who are biggoted as well. I guess down here in the south you can get them anywhere. sad really.
Hey Nikki!
To me, their definition of Red Neck is closer to my thoughts on "Trailer Trash".
A "found" farewell? j/k. That was one of the posts I was going to write about.
Thanks for clarifying the redneck, trailer trash question.
We don't really have trailer trash as such. We have welfare spongers who don't pay rent, claim every benefit going, and spend every penny on booze, tobacco and doughnuts. The people who really fall on hard times aren't as adept at working the system and suffer as a consequence.
"The people who really fall on hard times aren't as adept at working the system and suffer as a consequence."
That is one of the most true statements I have ever heard or read.
Your welfar sponger are our trailer trash. sad innit?
Yeah, Rednecks tend to have expensive collections of boots and belt buckles. Trailer trash doesn't. Red necks actually go to the Nascar races while trailer trash watch it on tv. :) Rednecks store their old cars under tarps usually while trailer trash leave out in the open fields. :) A trained professional can tell the difference.
I've watched a couple of episodes of Blue Collar TV and laughed really hard. Ahh, maybe I'll start watching tv again.
That's because Red Necks actually WORK for a living instead of leeching off the government.
