Martha Stewarts Guide for Rednecks

1. Never take a beer to a job interview.

2. Always identify people in your yard before shooting at
them.

3. It’s considered tacky to take a cooler to church.

4. If you have to vacuum the bed it’s time to change
sheets.

5. Even if you’re CERTAIN that you are included in the will
… it is still considered tacky to drive a U-Haul to the
funeral.

DINING OUT

1. When decanting wine, make sure that you tilt the paper
cup and pour slowly so as not to “bruise” the fruit of the
vine.

2. If drinking directly from the bottle, always hold it with
your fingers covering the label.

ENTERTAINING IN YOUR HOME

1. A centerpiece for the table should NEVER be prepared by a
taxidermist.

2. Do NOT allow the dog to eat at the table … no matter
how good his manners are.

PERSONAL HYGIENE

1. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this is a job
that should done in private using one’s OWN truck keys.

2. Proper use of toiletries can forestall bathing for
several days. However if you live alone, deodorant is a waste
of money.

3. Dirt & grease under the fingernails is a social no-no, as
it tends to detract from a woman’s jewelry & alter the taste
of finger foods.

DATING (OUTSIDE THE FAMILY)

1. Always offer to bait your date’s hook, especially on the
first date.

2. Be aggressive. Let her know you’re interested: “I’ve been
wantin’ to go out with you since I read that stuff on the
bathroom wall two years ago.

3. Establish with her parents what time she is expected
back. Some will say 10:00 PM; others might say “Monday”. If
the latter is the answer it is the man’s responsibility to
get her to school on time.

THEATER ETIQUETTE

1. Crying babies should be taken to the lobby and picked up
as soon as the movie has ended.

2. Refrain from talking to characters on the screen. Tests
have proven they cannot hear you.

WEDDINGS

1. Livestock, usually, is a poor choice for a wedding gift.

2. Kissing the bride for more than 5 seconds may get you
shot.

3. For the groom, at least, rent a tux. A leisure suit with
a cummerbund and a clean bowling shirt can create a tacky
appearance.

4. Though uncomfortable, say “yes” to socks & shoes for this
special occasion.

DRIVING ETIQUETTE

1. Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles; even if the
gun is loaded, and the deer is in sight.

2. When approaching a four-way stop, the vehicle with the
largest tires ALWAYS has the right of way.

3. Never tow another car using panty hose and duct tape.

4. When sending your wife down the road with a gas can, it
is impolite to ask her to bring back beer too.

5. Do NOT lay rubber while traveling in a funeral procession.

Things You’d Never Hear a Southern American Say

• I thought Graceland was tacky.

• No kids in the back of the pick-up, it’s not safe.

• Do you think my hair is too big?

• Honey, did you mail that donation to Greenpeace?

• The tires on that truck are too big.

• I’ve got it all on a floppy disk.

• Do you think this ball cap goes with this shirt?

• Damned if that polititian ain’t honest!

• We’re vegetarians.

• I’ll have grapefruit instead of biscuits and gravy.

• You can’t feed that to the dog.

• Trim the fat off that steak.

• Cappuccino tastes better than espresso.

• Wrasslin’s fake.

Birth Rate

An Alabama couple, both bonified rednecks, had 9 children.
They went to the doctor to see about getting the husband
“fixed”.

The doctor gladly started the required procedure and asked
them what finally made them make the decision — why after
nine children, would they choose to do this.

The husband replied that they had read in a recent article
that one out of every ten children being born in North
America was Mexican, and they didn’t want to take a chance
on having a Mexican baby because neither of them could
speak Spanish.

Texas Figgers of Speech

1. AS WELCOME AS A SKUNK AT A LAWN PARTY.
Self-explanatory

2. TIGHTER THAN BARK ON A TREE.
Not very generous

All talk and no action

4. WE’VE HOWDIED BUT WE AIN’T SHOOK YET.

He has a pretty high opinion of himself.

6. IT’S SO DRY THE TREES ARE BRIBIN’ THE DOGS.
We really could use a little rain around here.

7. JUST BECAUSE A CHICKEN HAS WINGS DOESN’T MEAN IT CAN FLY.
Appearances can be deceptive.

8. THIS AIN’T MY FIRST RODEO.
I’ve been around awhile.

9. HE LOOKS LIKE THE DOG’S BEEN KEEPIN’ HIM UNDER THE PORCH.
Not the most handsome of men.

10. THEY ATE SUPPER BEFORE THEY SAID ! GRACE.
Living in sin.

11. TIME TO PAINT YOUR BUTT WHITE AND RUN WITH THE ANTELOPE.
Stop arguing and do as you’re told.

12. AS FULL OF WIND AS A CORN-EATIN’ HORSE.
Rather prone to boasting.

13. YOU CAN PUT YOUR BOOTS IN THE OVEN BUT THAT DON’T MAKE THEM BISCUITS.
You can say whatever you want about something, but it doesn’t change what it is.
14. WE’RE IN TALL COTTON.
Things are going well

What’s for Lunch

An Irishman, a Mexican and a redneck were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building.

They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, Corned beef and cabbage. If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch I’m going to jump off this building.

The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, Burritos again. If I get burritos one more time I’m going to jump off, too.

The redneck opened his lunch and said, Bologna again. If I get a bologna sandwich one more time I’m jumping too.

Next day – the Irishman opens his lunch box, sees corned beef and cabbage and jumps to his death. The Mexican open his lunch, sees a burrito and jumps too. The redneck opens his lunch, sees the bologna and jumps to his death also.

At the funeral – The Irishman’s wife is weeping. She says, “If I’d known how really tired he was of corned beef and cabbage I never would have given it to him again” The Mexican’s wife also weeps and says “I could have given him tacos or enchiladas I didn’t realize he hated burritos so much.” Everyone turned and stared at the redneck’s wife. “Hey, don’t look at me,” she said, “He makes his own lunch.”
