Well, unless someone is from the mid-west or south. Those people are all stupid and backwards. She really thinks that WE (she and I) are better than all those people because we have college degrees and grew up in California.
Living in Indiana drives her crazy. I laugh at her and tell he that I love Kentucky and wouldn't move back to California for a million dollars.
Isn’t it sad? My brother lives in Michigan, and he thinks of people in Indiana as southern hicks. Of course he also thinks Hugo Chavez isn’t so bad, since he’s taking back the people’s property from those evil outsiders. It’s hard to talk to him sometimes. He deplores any development and would greatly restrict other people’s freedom to buy and develop property, yet doesn’t want anyone telling him how to maintain his own property. Product of the 60’s, in many ways.
Sadly what you say is a mind set of many of them.
