Come fairly close? www.journalnow.co.uk/ihome2/detail.asp?storyid=35149&catid=%202&officeid=9A redneck comparison to the UK equivalent.... A redneck over here is A football fan - end of story. He pretends that football is for the "family" and only a "few" spoil the "game" - then he goes out, downs ten pints of lager and smashes glasses in peoples faces. He comes from either "Liverpool" or "Rhyl". If he doesnt come from Rhyl - he holidays there. A good pan of chips comes only by frying in "top quality" LARD. The caravan (trailer) is towed by a burned out Datsun Sunny.  I do indeed think theres some common ground guys and gals Mark |

You know you're a Redneck When.....
> 1. You let your 14-year-old daughter smoke at the dinner table in front of her kids.
> 2. The Blue Book value of your truck goes up and down depending on how much gas is in it.
> 3. You've been married three times and still have the same in-laws.
> 4. You think a woman who is "out of your league" bowls on a different night.
> 5. You wonder how service stations keep their restrooms so clean.
> 6. Someone in your family died right after saying, "Hey, guys, watch this."
> 7. You think Dom Perignon is a Mafia leader.
> 8. Your wife's hairdo was once ruined by a ceiling fan
> 9. Your junior prom offered day care.
> 10. You think the last words of the "Star-Spangled Banner" are "Gentlemen, start your engines."
> 11. You lit a match in the bathroom and your house exploded right off its wheels.
> 12. The Halloween pumpkin on your porch has more teeth than your spouse.
> 13. You have to go outside to get something from the fridge.
> 14. One of your kids was born on a pool table.
> 15. You need one more hole punched in your card to get a freebie at the House of Tattoos.
> 16. You can't get married to your sweetheart because there's a law against it.
> 17. You think loading the dishwasher means getting your wife drunk

Yeah, Mark, I think you got it. He is a "well intentioned" person you would never allow your daughter to date. It's scary to me.
"You sure got a pretty mouth..."
"Deliverence" was (honest to goodness) filmed 15 miles from where I currently live, at "Tallulah Gorge" (pronounced "Ta-lou-la"). This is Red Neck USA. It's scary. Were it not so beautiful, I don't know if I could handle it. Please see my previous posts as a reference.

Just noticed this thread, pretty funny, I wonder if Andy gets credit for creating the longest lasting thread, Good work Andy. Always like Docs observations (especially the truth about Polacks). Nice post Momma, Cookie, Rose, LLana and many many more.
I think this "Redneck" thread just points out that English is a funny language and the same words mean all kinds of different things in different situations to different people.

Having a laugh over here. I'm just waiting for bbbbblair to get voted back in so he can help all the lesbian and gay foreigners have a house in this country. After all - in the UK - you are welcome if any or more than one of the following is true :- a) Youre gay b) You hate the English people c) You have no intention of working d) You are an "ethnic minority" - if not - we will make you one. e) You are a helper of anyone who hates the English. f) You have no passport g) You know how to trainhop on the chunnel - obvious deviant skills required. Then - once in the UK, these people can fleece taxpayers for billions of pounds and make us half decent people struggle to keep a roof over our heads with our families, and put up with threats of imprisonment from the tax office for missing a 30$ monthly payment. ENGLAND SUCKS. Oh - if we want to leave say to Aussie - we can live in the Outback if we like. I feel a website coming on Mark (Happy really) |

getting caught up on Brit Humour with a DVD of "Little Britain", that is pretty funny and sad, as you pointed out, Mark, the UK is changing big time.
