Gays -vs- Rednecks ... as neighbors

Long story how I got to thinking this .. doesn't matter ..

I imagined that my response to someone who said, upon my announcement of relocation to an area known for a high gay population, "fine, if you don't mind living among queers" .. would be .. "better queers than rednecks (like you..)"

Then I started thinking about just how true it is, not just as neighbors... but the whole marriage debate, etc ..

...ya know, ... standard comedy bits about: same-sex marriage -vs- same-family marriage, can't procreate -vs- spittin out a yard full of welfare cases, Camaros in the yard -vs- low-voltage lighting ...

Well, it was all funnier to me about 30 minutes ago.

Now help me come up with a clever bumpersticker...

this sounds suspiciously like an awful sitcom.

Or blindingly brilliant reality teevee.

We worship an awesome God in the Blue States, and we don’t like federal agents poking around our libraries in the Red States. We coach Little League in the Blue States and have gay friends in the Red States. There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq and patriots who supported it. We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America.

To be replayed over the title sequence during upcoming episodes of "Obama's Road Trip."

I had some redneck lesbians as neighbors. They were great fun to sit on the porch and drink beer with, but when they got into fights you could hear it for blocks around.

I worked in a factory where they were all redneck lesbians. I always thought if we were to do a tug of war between all the females in the factory and all the males, the women would dominate.

During break, they would all go outside and sit on their choppers and smoke. Seriously.

I guess this whole question hinges on whether you yourself are gay or a redneck, as those are the only two types of people in the world.

this sounds a lot like Monster meets Boys Don't Cry

JaXoN (JasonD), Thursday, 5 August 2004 16:45 (twenty-one years ago)

You guys do know that Jeff Foxworthy has a new show on "the" WB.

Huck, Thursday, 5 August 2004 16:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Monster was already a little Boys Don't Cry.

who is jeff foxowrthy? a gay redneck hybrid that is breaking down barriers in both communities?

"You might be a gay redneck if..."

Huck, Thursday, 5 August 2004 17:37 (twenty-one years ago)

"...you have new VW Beetle up on blocks in your yard."

spittle (spittle), Thursday, 5 August 2004 18:26 (twenty-one years ago)

"...you use confederate flag for window treatments."

Huck, Thursday, 5 August 2004 18:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Huck, did you see the Chappelle Show where there was the gay Klansman?

Michael White (Hereward), Thursday, 5 August 2004 18:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I saw the one with blind, black Klansman, was there a gay one in that sketch?

Huck, Thursday, 5 August 2004 18:32 (twenty-one years ago)

"...you clean your shotgun with a Bore Snake instead of with patches."

Pleasant Plains (Pleasant Plains), Thursday, 5 August 2004 18:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, he comes up to the door of middle class black family in his pink (duh?) robes (no hood) and proceeds to say very sweetly to couple, "We took a poll around the neighborhood and we're all wondering if you'd like to move back to Africa?" It was on the show where they had skits that didn't make the grade, like the Playa Hataz, etc...

if you are smart you'll choose to live where the gays or jews live

You try to install a jacuzzi but end up with an above ground pool.

You consistently mistake merlot for Miller

aimurchie, Thursday, 5 August 2004 18:53 (twenty-one years ago)

...you have a bidet on your front lawn.

Huck, Thursday, 5 August 2004 18:57 (twenty-one years ago)

you make your mother use it

Best thing about living among lesbians: sometimes the mailman mixes up our Netflix rentals. *sizzle*

Harold Media (kenan), Thursday, 5 August 2004 19:29 (twenty-one years ago)

When does "Will & Grace" address this burning issue?

In Memphis I had both gay men/women and rednecks as neighbors. The thing that got them all together was gardening, big competition to see who had the, uh, biggest roto-tiller...
