We used to have a group of Mormons stop by our house when I lived in VA. Zac and I would answer the door shuffling a deck of cards and whatnot. We would sit there and talk/argue/whatever with them for quite a while.
They stopped by quite often, but they weren't always the same guys. I think they sent us their newbies for training or something.
Personally, rednecks bother me more than any group of people than I can put my finger on. As you can guess, I was very popular at High School in Southwestern Virginia.
Rednecks are certainly bad sometimes, but Hicks are much worse. You won't find anybody more abrasive or irritating than someone who actually thinks he's a cowboy.
I've got plenty of Recneck in my family. If I ever find myself related to a Hick, I'll shoot the person responsible. In the ass. Several times.
