Well, gee, you all seem like real nice folks and all, but I'm a pretty shy guy, you probably won't hear much from me....

Well another one joins the ranks of the recently introduced or reintroduced. Good luck with your military plans. The only thing I see wrong there is you put the Armor before the Infantry. Didn't the Germans try that in WWII?
 Anyway I wish you all the best.

I have this medical condition that the doctor told me was called "laziness" or something, and one of the symptoms is a strong aversion to walking, I heard you have to do some of that in the Infantry. Just kidding. Thank you for the well wishes. |

Redneck, a related term, describes a bigoted rural Southerner. According to southern comedian Jeff Foxworthy, you might be a redneck if you have more tattoos than teeth, shave your legs with your husband's fishing knife, have a Jack Daniel's poster in your living room, answer the door carrying a shotgun, and have at least once thoughtfully placed a six-pack of beer into your friend’s casket before he was buried. While rednecks are not identical to trailer trash, it is entirely possible to belong to both groups at the same time.

Rednecks are nothing like trailer trash, chief, whatever the internet may have told you. If you want the entomology of the word, it comes from farmers/ranchers who spend all day working in the fields and as a result have sunburned (red) necks. In my book that's more a sign of being a dedicated, hardworking, honest individual than a subject for ridicule. As far as being bigoted, I know I am not, and in fact I never heard the "n" word a single time (outside of Tom Sawyer) in my own little backwards, podunk, hick town, but can't spend a day without hearing it down in the enlightened world of Santa Barbara. Jeff is a funny guy, but his jokes aren't meant to be taken any more seriously than Chris Rock's or Dave Chappelle's are about black people.
Sorry, I didn't sleep well and I'm not in a good mood (and actually I WAS armed earlier this morning ).
