According to what I've heard, he could use an Arrogance Meter. I saw Billy Mays advertising one for $19.95 plus S&H, and he was throwing in some carpet cleaner stuff. I'm just worried that he might not ever use it. |

I don't see Hillbilly as being a racial slur at all. It doesn't have anything to do with race. It's more of a cultural thing. If you live in the South Eastern "hills" of the United States in a community of naturalist, city-shunning people- then I'm pretty sure you've embraced being a Hillbilly. It's a culture of music, stories, and hardwork that doesn't necesarilly carry any negative connotations.
I suppose you couldn't say the same for Baldnobbers, but I grew up in the Ozarks and never gave the term 'Hillbilly' a second thought until I moved to California and had some people looking a bit shocked when I said it. But I said it kindly. I've always enjoyed Branson with it's Call of the Hills, Silver Dollar City, and whatnot. I suppose it's all about the intent behind why you're saying it that could make the difference. Off topic: Being overly PC is just annoying to me. I'm white, but I'm okay with White men Can't Jump...dance, etc. Because, it's sometimes true and funny. |

That won't last long though. Hispanics already outnumber whites in Fresno and many other places in California. Besides, I don't think this is a numbers thing anymore. And...as Ricky Gervais said, "it's funny because it's racist."
