How come rednecks sound so uneducated ?

There must be a school in the south that teaches redneck talk.

Why do liberals think they sound smart?

Must be the northern people thinking that. I’m from the south and I are smart…….(joke) The Northern folks think our accent is what does us in……… but if they record their voices and play them back, they’d sound just as uneducated.

Broken speech, many people in the south don’t like the southern slang anymore
They might sound un-educated but they,re not. I moved to NC from Jersey 2 years and found southerners r very smart. They narrow thinking. There not like city peeps, that wanna take things globally. Southerners wanna keep things to themselves, and that is not necessarily a bad thing, but I’m still movin back to Jerzey

Hey Ma them city slickers know nuffing when they go bush

i rekon cause we all live in trailers…and aint got no eg-a-ma-cation!

how come everyone want to move down here with us?

This here should be a number 10 answer for ya’ll. [smile]

Only a Southerner knows the difference between a hissy fit and a conniption fit, and that you don’t “HAVE” them, you “PITCH” them.

Only a Southerner knows how many fish, collard greens, turnip greens, peas, beans, etc., make up “a mess of.”

Only a Southerner can show or point out to you the general direction of “yonder.”

Only a Southerner knows exactly how long “directly” is, as in: “Going to town, be back directly.”

Even Southern babies know that “Gimme some sugar,” is not a request for the white, granular sweet substance that sits in a pretty little bowl in
the middle of the table.

All Southerners know exactly when “by and by” is. They might not use the term, but they know the concept well.

Only a Southerner knows instinctively that the best gesture of solace for a neighbor who’s got trouble is a plate of hot fried chicken and a big bowl of cold potato salad. If the neighbor’s trouble is a real crisis, they also know to add a large banana puddin!

Only Southerners grow up knowing the difference between “right near” and “a right far piece.” They also know that “just down the road” can be 1 mile or 20.

Only a Southerner, both knows and understands, the difference between a redneck, a good ol’ boy, and po’ white trash.

No true Southerner would ever assume that the car with the flashing turn signal is actually going to make a turn.

A Southerner knows that “fixin” can be used as a noun, a verb, or an adverb…

We don’t do “queues,” we do “lines”; and when we’re “in line,” we talk to everybody!
Only Southerners make friends while standing in lines.

Put 100 Southerners in a room and half of them will discover they’re related, even if only by marriage.

Southerners know grits come from corn and how to eat them.

Every Southerner knows tomatoes with eggs, bacon, grits, and coffee are perfectly wonderful; that red eye gravy is also a breakfast food; and that fried green tomatoes are not a breakfast food.

When you hear someone say, “Well, I caught myself lookin’,” you know you are in the presence of a genuine Southerner!

Only true Southerners say “sweet tea” and “sweet milk.” Sweet tea indicates the need for sugar and lots of it — we do not like our tea unsweetened. “Sweet milk” means you don’t want buttermilk.

And a true Southerner knows you don’t scream obscenities at little old ladies who drive 30 MPH on the freeway. You just say, “Bless her heart,” and go your own way.

To those of you who’re still a little embarrassed by your Southerness: Take two tent revivals and a dose of sausage gravy and call me in the morning. Bless your heart!

And to those of you who are still having a hard time understanding all this Southern stuff, bless your hearts, I hear they are fixin’ to have classes on Southernness as a second language!
And for those that are not from the South but have lived here for a long time, ya’ll need a sign to hang on ya’lls front porch that reads “I aint from the South but I got here as fast as I could.”

Bless your hearts, and ya’ll have a blessed day.

well i’m a redneck and from the hills, but i’m not uneducated. i’m just country man…………..

a redneck is a slang term for whitey, in black language and it means someone whose skin is capable of turning red when mad……………

this is an old term and not thought of today like that………

you’ve now been educated by a redneck………….
