You might not be a redneck if . . .

When people hear me talk, they accuse me of being a redneck just like Jeff Foxworthy. But I have you know, I'm nothing like Jeff Foxworthy. I don't have a mustache. I wax.

I grew up in Amarillo, Texas. But contrary to popular belief, I'm not a redneck. I'm a green neck because I wear cheap jewelry.

Just because I'm from Amarillo, it doesn't mean I'm a redneck. It means I'm a hick.

People have a hard time distinguishing between a redneck and a hick. But there's a difference. Rednecks go to family reunions for the spoiled potato salad. Hicks go to meet their future spouses.

Hick is a four-letter Swahili word that means I think your tractor is sexy.

Hick is actually a Tunisian word meaning I think I actually look good wearing flannel.

Hick is an Indian word that means if I took my car off the blocks in my yard, Mom wouldn't have a home.

When people make fun of me for talking slow, I just tell them to quit listening so fast.

I used to talk a lot slower. In fact, I used to talk so slow that by the time I told a guy I wasn't that kind of a girl I was.

I've never seen a single hick with a blue tooth. But I have seen a whole slew of them with green teeth.
