Just When You Think It's Safe to go Back Amongst the Rednecks

          So I'm at the gazebo at school today (gazebos are designated smoking areas at WGTC) and three ignorant-as-hell hillbillies come over, already in mid-conversation and showing no signs of slowing down, which is fine with me as the gazebos are generally where any and all topics can be discussed/debated. So as they approach, the apparent ringleader of this intrepid triad is saying, "...an' thet's when I said to 'er, 'Hey, lady. I know yer a damnyankee an' I c'n prove it.' Then she ast (yes, ast) me how an' I told 'er ta spell "Yee-haw." An' ya know whut? She kuddent. So thet's when I toll her she ain't had no business teachin' anglish. I was country raised, so I don't need no damnyankee tellin' me how ta talk. They thank there so smart just a'cuz they won the war, but nuthin's changed. It's all gonna be the way it was by the time its all over."
          The other two were adding their two-cents worth every now and again, agreeing with this inbred freak of nature at every turn. Okay, anyone who knows me, knows this is exactly the type of scenario I practically WILL into existence for the simple sake of reminding ignorant people just how archaic their views are, but for some reason I just kept my mouth shut. I listened, I laughed, but said nothing. I was reminded that it is ignorance such as this that keeps hate alive. These people should not be allowed to reproduce.
