Anyone who believes that yankees are somehow superior, hasn't met the painfully parochial townees of New Hampshire, the gap-toothed swamp yankees crawling around the backwoods of Vermont and Maine, the "jobless-beret-wearing-dressed-in-black" sophomore pontificators on the sidewalks of Boston, your basic "Brooklyn Moron", virtually any politician in Rhode Island, etc., etc.

Yes indeedy, those yankees have a real lock on sophistication.

As we waited on the porch to be introduced to my cousin's new in-laws, my aunt issued the plea, "Please, please don't let 'em know we're swamp Yankees!" LOL!

We're just as rednecked as any Southern good ol'boys and just as proud of it.
