You might be a Redneck if...

I delivered mail for 25 years and I've seen 20 boxes taken out by the snowplows for every box taken out by a car. Heavy wet snow from a plow going 50 does it!

That's a good point. I never actually considered that. Not that it matters much; ours is a communal mailbox system, and all that we ever get is junk mail anyway, so the kid gets off with checking it once a week or so.

There was a story going around a while back about a drunk driver who would routinely leave his local bar and purposefully hit every garbage can he could along the way. One day in winter (this took place in Canada), a neighbour of the pub had had enough of having his cans demolished, so he filled his can (it was a big one, but I forget how big) with water and let it freeze into a giant block of ice. Drunk does his thing driving home until he reaches said can, at which point his engine crumple zone does its job, and he had to stagger back home leaving the remains of his car and the iceberg it had run into.

back in the 70's in the rural town I live in there was a few high school kids that would stick a pipe with a hook bent into the end into the jack slot/tube on a vw beetle. They would hook the mail box posts an take them down. One guy got tired an put a cast iron pipe into the ground in a 3'x3'x3' cube of concrete. Legend is when they hooked it it spun the vw into the ditch.

To be fair, those folks could be from Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee, or Arkansas!

Naw... they're locals. And I suspect that they are on the back there because they wouldn't fit in the back seats.

Spent all their car payment money on moon pies.

Moon pies and RC Cola! I loved those as a kid. Have not had either in 55 years!
