We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
My kinda girl. She can catch fish, clean fish, gut fish and cook fish. That accent gives me the gasoline taste in my mouth like I have just had an adrenal surge. And, my-oh-my, all of those feminine accouterments. Needs to fix 'em teef but at least they're all there. Me likey. Me likey a lot!
White trash? No. Country? Yes. The kind of girl a Southern country boy like me wants to have around.
But you're right, not all Southerners are like her. Some are pompous jackasses.
Steve, now that is funny. What did she do to make him think white trash? He may as well call Foghorn Leghorn white trash. I've known a few people from that part of the south, and they called themselves coon ass (not an insult).
bgarrett, I suspects you are a transplant to the DS as you don't know your corn hole from a dirt excavation. That child is white, she is country, sure enough, but she sure ain't trash. One halter does not a redneck make.
You do know that that Southern Pride is one of the common white trash trademarks? Do be careful about the slurs you sling; some of us think that it is bigotry.
