I ll start...

if your truck is older than your significant other, then, you might be a redneck. (true for me)

if you get your news and views from comedians, you might be a lefty.

If you were cutting your lawn and found a Ford, you might be a redneck

older! that s the spirit I was hoping for. funny and nice!

if you are really disappointed in the direction NPR and mac neil-lehrer are headed, politically, you might be a centrist.

(yes, I know it s Iffel and woodruff now. I once considered gwen iffel to be the best anchor on tv. I think maybe Margaret warner is now, (maybe Jeffrey green) but I seldom watch the show any more. I still listen to NPR tho. I get enough NPR channels to allow me to skip around the propaganda.) (npr on the radio and fox on the tv)

if your goat found your ford, while he was cutting your lawn, you might be a red neck....

If you agree with what's written on the op-ed page of the newspaper, you might be a lefty.

Oh yes, let's please devote an entire thread to reinforcing uneducated stereotypes. There isn't enough of that already on this site.

Guin, I was hoping my post might shut it up since I don't really think I'm the obvious candidate. But (sigh) it was not to be. Too subtle I guess.

wesw - it's oldr. Not older. At least have the respect to spell the man's false name correctly! My daughter's name is Lara and even my own father-in-law spent 35 years before he died calling her (variously) "Laura", sometimes with "Lairer" and "Layra" tossed in. In that vein, I should ask whether it is correct to address you as wesw or wes? I'd hate to irritate you

It's all in good fun. While I am not the author of this thread, I would think it's ok to make fun of "rightists" too.

PS
I know quite a few people who most would think to be rednecks and they make fun of themselves and have no resentment towards people making of them being rednecks.

ETA
Maybe this should be moved to "Laffs".

I was hoping we could make fun of ourselves.

maybe learn something about each other.

if you think farts are funny, you might be a red neck.

if you insist (but don t really believe) that billions of people have no effect on the earth s environment, you might be a conservative....

if your wife quotes rush Limbaugh, you might be a conservative.....

Maybe where you live, where the paper is the NYT. Not so much where I live.

NYT and my local paper Newsday
There used to be a weekly paper Suffolk Life that wsa right slanted, but that folded due to illness of the guy runnin it.
I miss that paper. When the elections were coming up, they would send a 100-150 qustionaire to the candidates and then publish the results. One could take the questionaire for themselves and compare which candidate most likely matched your views/opinions. Wish some other papers would do that. We get nothing but talking points and sound bites. That's no way to pick who one wants to vote for and not everyone has the time to go to the candidates website and sort through all the stuff.

No, sorry. You haven't got the "wit" idea yet. I'd say nice try but it wasn't really.

ETA:
Oh wesw you deleted your post - now THAT was witty!

wesw · Post by **wesw** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:39 pm

I have no idea of what you are talking about (he said innocently)

Status quo ante, then.

Was this directed at me?
I may not be very "witty", but people have said I do have a good sense of humor.
