I brought it here so we wouldn't further ruin the YRYR thread.

Smokey wrote:
Jed Clampett says howdy, y'all (and that's how it's spelled, you ignorant dorks).


Clampetts came from the Ozarks, you fool!

Did Jed Clampett say "Tarnation"? Yes. Did Yosemite Sam say it way the fuck before him? Yes.

Is Yosemite Sam a hillbilly? No, that's already been established thanks to Suga.


Clearly, the way to determine whether or not my statement in YRYR that 'Tarnation' doesn't make a hillbilly is to determine which character people would first think of in terms of the use of "TARNATION!"

There should also be a debate as to whether or not the exclamation is more associated with hillbillies or prospectors/old western folk.

Frankly, it doesn't matter in the end, because fuck Smokey.

I've never even heard of Yosemite Sam outside of Looney Toons, so I can't vote I guess.

That's the exact Yosemite Sam we're talking about.

Just like the term "redneck" applies to people outside of the deep South, so does the term "hillbilly" apply to people out West, too, like the aforementioned Stumpy. Was everyone out west a hillbilly? Nope. Did Sam have an incredibly rustic accent and shoot his guns in the air every five seconds? Yep. What does that remind you of? Hillbillies.

Yeehaw, y'all.

Makes me think of Yosemite Sam, but Smokey's right.

Sorry. :no:

Smokey's ignorance is not correct.

It's like this, see?

Okay, so over in east Asia, you've got the Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, Taiwanese, etc., right?

They're all different but they can be classified under the label of 'Asian', but it would be incorrect and potentially offensive to refer to a Chinese person as Japanese, yeah?

So, here we've got Hillbillies, Cowboys, White Trash, Hicks, Old-Timey Prospectin' Folk, etc., right?

They're all different but they can be classified under the label of 'Redneck', but it would incorrect and potentially offensive to refer to a Cowboy as a Hillbilly.

Checkfuckingmate.

Two questions.

Did either of them fuck their cousins? If yes, they're a hillbilly.

Did either of them fuck their cousin, but not their gay cousins? If yes, they're from North Carolina.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, and HOLY SHIT YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE WRONG.

Chinese/Koreans/Japanese are all different nationalities with different cultures, different values, and different pretty much everything else. There is no discernible difference between Hillbillies, White Trash, or Hicks. As for Prospectors and Cowboys, those are occupations, not lifestyles, so a Cowboy can be a Hillbilly, and This is not German, so Why the Fuck are we Capitalizing All These Fucking Words?

You're telling me that in a country as large as America that the different regions Appalachia/Ozarks, 'Old West', plains farmland, etc. that there isn't differences in cultures, values, and basically everything else? What America are you living in? It certainly isn't one based in reality...

Come out west and tell somebody that being a cowboy or a prospector (i hear there's still a few out there...) isn't a lifestyle and that they're hillbillies and see how quickly you get punched in the face.


I capitalize what I want, when I want, however I want, because I'm a champ.

Chump.

Tell me how a country bumpkin in the Ozarks is markedly different from a country bumpkin out in Utah. I'd be interested in hearing how the differences are as numerous and varied as those between a Japanese man and a Chinese man.

I didn't say that cowboys/prospectors are hillbillies, I said that they CAN be hillbillies. As for cowboys/prospectors being occupations, not lifestyles, answer me this: Can you or could you ever make or have made money by being a cowboy or a prospector, and can you or could you ever make or have made money by being a hillbilly? Illegal activities like brewing and selling moonshine or freak occurrences like discovering an oil well in your backyard don't count, I'm talking legitimate and at least semi-steady incomes.
