He needs Oakleys, a goatee, and an antivax Facebook profile frame to complete the costume.
And about fifty pounds of weight
And a search history littered with bear cub porn.
We’ll also accept Grindr on his phone.
nah this guy has a Sniffles account.
A what?
Bear cub porn is hairy chubby gay guys.
Unless they’re a furry, then it’s pedo shit.
Either interpretation is valid.
But isn’t that just “bear”? it’s the “cub” part that makes it sound awful
I think the cub part indicates it’s younger guys too, but honestly I don’t watch porn so I can’t really say for sure.

You forgot the confederate flag!
Or maybe a Punisher tattoo.
Backwards American flag in black and white
I bet someone fused those two before!
I’m surrounded by these fucksticks. Send help.
– Trapped in Indiana
Everyday of my life brings me one day further from the day before I moved to NYC. So today, like every day since then was a good day.
I do not recommend West Virginia.
Just moved to Indiana, can confirm.
Indiana is funny 'cause Parks and Rec really didn’t have to exaggerate how annoying they can be there.
Hoosiers are… something
sorry g. moved out to California from indiana a couple years ago and never looked back. hope one day u can get out
Hey we have them here in California too! Ever been to the San Bernardino mountains?
Oh bro for sure. but living in the bay you can kinda forget that they exist lol.
Well I live in rednecklandia so yeah… Atleast those my age are bearable, fubar for boomers and gen x the silent generation are great though.
Move up to NWI, it’s more like an extension of Chicago
Edit: but without all the taxes
I got out of Indiana a few years ago and moved to civilization on the coasts. Godspeed.
No, you stay in the US
Yeah nawh mate.
Should have been adult child sized
I’d like a small men’s cowboy costume please.
I’m not gonna wear a ladies costume, I’m a man, man.
It’s my birthday 2003
Indeed
Adult on the outside, child on the inside!
Dog whistle included!
I live in a small town outside pittsburgh about 45 mins. I lived in a city my entire life from 18 to 36. I bought a house here and it’s quiet, but holy shit the people here are ignorant AF. When I say ignorant, I don’t use that term like rude, I mean literally dumb and uneducated. NO ONE around here can even spell. Fb is hilarious with the spelling they come up with or they will use a word that sounds similar to the big word they are trying to use but not quite right. Some day, I’m going to compile a list. They hate any race that isn’t white, they are misinformed, religious in thought but drinking every night, TERRIBLE parents… I yelled at my neighbor because her 3 year old son was half a mile down the road playing by himself on a 30 foot tall dirt pile and she was nowhere to be seen. When I yelled at her she said and I quote “iz he not allowed down thur or somethin?” I called the police and they came and told her she had to be outside when he was outside and she has been ever since. I’m sure she hates parenting. Trump support everywhere especially after he’s now a convicted rapist. It’s insane. I’m pretty outcast, i speak out when I see dumb shit, especially people selling these stickers. I call them white trash. People who know me personally respect me and I’ve won 1 or 2 over but man it’s exhausting. Had to buy a few guns when shit was getting real scary with the rednecks wanting to overthrow the govt. I’m surrounded by rednecks with guns. I miss the city. Sure there are all types of shitty people but atleast you get culture, good food, beautiful views, activities. We drive up every so often but it’s not the same. If our house wasn’t so big and beautiful and old compared to what I would get in the city for 3x the cost, I would move. Fuck these hillbillies.
Rednecks were originally left wing pro-union workers originally. So these people don’t deserve to be called rednecks.
Edit: had to double check. There were multiple meanings including the coal miners I am referring to. Apparently it could also mean white sun burned farmers in the 19th century
Rednecks are farmers given that name from having their heads down while plowing their fields. They were Klan back in the day and are right wing extremists now. These people deserve much worse than being called a derogatory name.
From the Wikipedia article on rednecks:
Coal miners
The term “redneck” in the early 20th century was occasionally used in reference to American coal miner union members who wore red bandanas for solidarity. The sense of “a union man” dates at least to the 1910s and was especially popular during the 1920s and 1930s in the coal-producing regions of West Virginia, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania.[18] It was also used by union strikers to describe poor white strikebreakers.[19]
I like how you glossed over the entire first part of the article to try to prove me wrong lmao. Clown.
lol bro skipped half the article, cherry picked the shortest paragraph on the whole page
I originally got the info from a tiktok. It appears that while that meaning is correct it’s not the primary meaning of the term. I would have thought that leftist tiktokers would do at least some research before releasing a video but I guess not.
I would have thought leftist tiktokers would do at least some research
Bro cmon.
Did you even read my earlier correction? I said the term has had multiple meanings. The coal miners were in the 20th century, the farmer rednecks were earlier in the 19th century.
Yeah you edited it after i posted it to save some face. Lol. Take the L.
Nah I edited it because I did more research. The original source I had was from a leftist tiktoker who left out the original meaning of the term. It turns out if you search for videos like this you can find more than one talking about the redneck revolt.
That being said I find it bizarre you can’t deal with the concept that a word has multiple meanings.
Edit: Also why are you trying to say stuff like “Take the L”. The whole point of discussing these things is to learn or to inform, turning it into a competition is wrong and leads to bad faith behavior and antagonism for no reason.
I found a misleading source of information that I should have verified ahead of time. I find it hard to believe you wouldn’t make the same mistake.
I’m starting to think there might be a reason some people assumed I was a racist redneck when I argued why I like small towns more than cities. Is that seriously what its like in some places? Here you will see the occasional truck covered in trump stickers but that’s pretty much it. There’s plenty of different cultures and views here. Not as much as a city of course, but that’s as expected.
It’s OK to like small towns, but most of the people who live in small towns, never left and have no aspirations to. It’s particularly evident with some of the more uh… shallow gene pool folk. They are so backwards, they know they would get ridiculed around people outside of their comfort zone, which I’m sure they would. They hate “pretty people”. City people are usually pretty people and there is like a weird level of jealousy based around that. I live in what used to be a steel town and when I tell you that everyone who lives at the bottom of the hill have mental issues and all have kids that have learning disabilities, I’m not joking. Heavy metals HAVE to be the cause of so many issues in small towns. There are kids here with growth deformities, 10 miles away there is a nuclear dump that is just chilling in the middle of a residential area. Tons of people got and get cancer there, people continue to live around it and die. I have no idea why lol. It’s insane. The govt put up signs but they aren’t even noticeable. If you drive past, my wife had to point it out. It’s fucking NUCLEAR WASTE. Seriously… I’ve been in fights with a lot of my neighbors over the way they treat their children. My neighbor across the street has 2 kids and 1 black step daughter from his wife’s other marriage, I feel so bad for her. One day I was outside and a group of young boys came up the street with a football, they were about 14. The dad was outside and from across the street I could hear them saying N*gger very loudly. The redneck dad just ignored it. He probably thinks the same thing and is embarrassed by her. I was shocked he just turned away and ignored it. If I ever heard that again, I’d say something l, I should have to make him look bad bit I really didn’t expect him to NOT say something. I pack heat everywhere I go out here, there was a crazy redneck yelling about Biden with a gun last summer at the ice cream stand. He got arrested but if I was there with my kids and someone pulled a gun, I’d have to pop them. Never had that happen in the city. Shits real in the battlefield.

Yeah, but then you have small towns like Boulder Colorado which are much more liberal than you would find even in some larger cities.
And I grew up in the country near a couple of small towns, and we used to relentlessly make fun of rednecks and the illiterate farmers who live near the towns. One of the local high schools however had a dragon as a mascot. Apparently back in the 1980s and '90s, that was not okay because we accuse them of being KKK all the time. That high school could never live that one down.
small towns like Boulder Colorado
Boulder has a population of around 100k, I wouldn’t call it small or a town.
Boulder is not a small town. But even if it were, it’s a college town which, surprise surprise, always changes the small town dynamic.
I’ve lived in the city most of my life. Had a friend that lived in the country that told me to come out and visit. He was convinced that I needed to buy a gun because how dangerous it supposedly is.
I shit you not, the next morning he was threatening his neighbor with a gun. Turns out there is a ton of crime in the country. Nobody has a job so they constantly steal from each other.
He’s got that thousand-yard-squint. Very cool and masculine.
Thousand yard squint, that’s brilliant.
People where I live now are genuinely afraid of the city for sure. There is some merit, but only if you go looking to step in shit.
For me, I’m largely desensitized to city stuff from a lifetime, and I’m tired. I don’t like it anymore.
I’m not scared of cities, but there is something to be said about being able to get away from people…
Riding my bike in the city is way more annoying than when I ride on a gravel/dirt road in the countryside with animals and scenery
Also those f150 dudes crack me up. I can count on one hand the number of those I’ve ever seen hauling anything
And the f150’s you do see hauling shit are hauling loads that a f350 has no business hauling.
Do fake country guys really wear henleys? I like henleys.
Edit: I did research. Thank god he was wearing a long-sleeve tee and not a henley.
Nah, you did bad research. 🤨 But I do like that video. That’s a henley, henley definition: A collarless pullover shirt, characterized by a round neckline and a placket about 3 to 5 inches long and usually having 2–5 buttons. It essentially is a collarless polo shirt.
Country clothing is usually very simple, practical. Like the henley. It is a far too convenient piece of clothing to be owned by any one group! 🙂 I don’t like henleys, I love henleys. Just don’t wear it in combination with a dumbass cowboy hat. 😂 Or camo. 🤢
Not inbred looking enough
What are you talking about?
The guy looks like his parents are alcoholic siblings.
He’s talking about Eyes-too-close-together disease.
Fetal alcohol syndrome?
I equate eyes-too-close-together more with inbreeding than FASD
Well scientists say it is a key feature:
“Children with full fetal alcohol syndrome also have distinctive facial features – their eyes are close together and the area beneath their nose is flat.”

I’ve lived in a range of population centers, from mid sized towns of about 30k, to cities in the millions, and now in a small town of 5k spread through the entire valley. Its different strokes for different folks. The city was nice with lots of things to keep me occupied, but I could barley afford to do anything because my tiny apt cost 2.5k a month. Cities would be great if the CoL was addressed. Smaller towns on the other hand offer me plent of unspoiled nature to explore and a tighter knit sense of community while allowing me to live comfortably.
Each has its benefits and generalizing one side or the other doesn’t do it justice.
I see they know my ex husband before the additional 300 lbs.
They are all so tough until they actually have to be around people. Then they gotta strap up to get a slurpy.
That looks like nothing I’d wear.
