Are you "country"!

[Oddfellow]

I can remember my great grandmother having no running water and an outhouse. My granddad used to break a garden with a mule, which I also helped him do. He had no phone and well water. Slaughtered our own beef, poultry, and pork. Both grandfathers quit school in the first grade to work on the farm and could barely read and write, but still made a good living through grit and determination. My father raised tobacco, kept chickens, raised cattle, and hay. This was all in the 1980s-90s. I would consider myself country.

Does a 40.5 lb flathead catfish in my apartment tub count?

Sure.

Guess that question would depend on what someone would consider "Country"
I was raised in the country, 10miles from any town, My brothers house was the closest neighbor.
We hunted, fished, camped and lived a simple life. Some of my family still does.

I now live in town don't kill or grow everything I eat. I buy a lot at the store.

What people think are country people because you go buy a pair of boots and listen to Morgan Wallen and Luke Bryan are not country people. They are posers.

Your country/redneck if you've ever been too drunk to fish.
Your country/redneck if you've ever butchered a deer in a hotel bathtub.

My buddy says that you've only been drunk if you've shit your pants.... apparently I've only been drunk twice.

Country people are cool, rednecks are annoying and trash. They are not the same thing.

Yes! Dude, I am so psyched to see this in the wild. I've only ever heard this concept in terrible, pandering, cynical songs. I honestly had no idea that this was something that people actually said.

How about a dead coyote in the fridge? Does that count as country?

Until 2024 we had an outhouse and collected rainwater. We had highspeed fiber optic broadband internet 3 years before we had running water. Welcome to the Boston Mountains of NW Arkansas!
The year before last we trapped/killed/butchered 75 hogs and last year we did even more, but I lost track of the number north of 80. That doesn't count the dozens and dozens of deer and a couple of head of cattle butchered for our neighbors each year.
A few years ago I served bobcat and coyote tacos at a dinner party.
We still have the outhouse.
My biggest flathead is 39# caught on 6# line. We cleaned it in my kitchen.

Down here we can tell the trash from the local based upon how many Busch Light (the official beer of littering in the Ozarks!) cans they leave in their wake when driving around...

Geez, I hope I am country enough for this group. or redneck enough. Whichever.

As close as I get.....

If you remove the clown and a striped shirt this might as well be a pic of me with my exwife. Although the ex seemed less unpleasant personality wise than what you are riding there...

Bro. We talk about the style and fit of premium clothes, how we smell in the woods, and our diet when camping. It’s more gay than country around here.

Aaaaand........
