Someone other than me needs to explain it to you. It's hard to explain how you are to someone else. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Oh and just so you'll know, I'm not REALLY a redneck, but I live in a rural area and it's just fun making fun of myself. And we DO have our share of Rednecks around here.

Here's something from Wikipedia.

Redneck is a historically derogatory slang term used in reference to poor, uneducated white farmers, especially from the southern United States.[1][2] It is similar in meaning to cracker (especially regarding Georgia and Florida), hillbilly (especially regarding Appalachia and the Ozarks),[3] and white trash (but without the last term's suggestions of immorality).[4][5][6]

In recent decades, the term has expanded its meaning to refer to bigoted, loutish reactionaries who are opposed to modern ways,[7] and has often been used to attack Southern conservatives and racists.[8] At the same time, some Southern whites have reclaimed the word, using it with pride and defiance as a self-identifier.[9]
