I\'m kind of curious as to what everyone\'s idea of what a redneck is... everyone may have a different interpretation of the word. I\'m in TX and I can tell you that there are definite differences in people that consider themselves rednecks and what I consider to be rednecks...
Dictionary definitions:
1. Used as a disparaging term for a member of the white rural laboring class, especially in the southern United States.
2. A white person regarded as having a provincial, conservative, often bigoted attitude.
My interpretation of a redneck is the uneducated, cowboy-types that run around here getting drunk and spitting tabacco everywhere, then again I know that with comedians like Larry the Cable Guy, etc, it has been a little more glamorized (if that\'s what you can call it)
