I thought it was fine. Not as funny as the “You know you’re a redneck if...” jokes, maybe.
I once brought some Marines from southern states with me into upper New York state, which they found, to their amusement, to be very much like home except for the accent.
Exactly true. I’ve lived in NYC, upstate NY, LA, SF, Chicago, Texas, Japan, France and Germany and some of the people in upstate NY are not what you would call the most sophisticated or tolerant people on the planet.
Most people that complain about the South have never been there.
