Do you live in a bubble?

[Rain Man]

Are you insulated from the working class's mainstream culture in thought and history? Let's see who we have here.

I got a 45, which seems about right in the summary. I figured my score would be higher given where I grew up. If I changed one answer about my father's job, it would rise to 52 (he was a manager, but in very blue collar jobs). However, I answered the questions strictly.

I just took the pol because
it's a rain man poll
but guess this is to see how redneck you are?

and it didn't even ask about guns?

Yeah man, I miss it.

Just the peace and quiet and relaxation that comes with being on a boat with a line in the water.

I have a question about the 2nd question. My father was in a managerial position as a naval officer but the pay was crap. Does that count as a yes or no?

I lived off of $7 dollars a week, plus "Spiffs" for selling certain guitars, basses or whatever "competition" of the day the manager set, for three months. Things got better as time progressed over that first year but my roommate and I are still best of friends (even though we live in different Cali cities) and it's always fun to reminisce about the tough times, which in hindsight, were a total blast.

We made due with what we had and had some of the best times of our lives.

Funny isn't it. When you have a big bank account all anxieties go out the window. But... you look back at the times you where totally broke and living with friends and say to yourself, "Shit, I wish I could have fun like that!" Lmao

Yeah, I quit there too. I couldn't answer for sure in what I assume is the spirit of the question. My assumption is yes but I assume by the letter of the question its yes for most everyone.

You could grow up a millionaire whose first car at 16 is a new Benz and still click yes because you went to college and almost all of your neighbors didn't have degrees.

edit: just said yes and went ahead to get a 46. there were some clear, "are you a redneck type questions" but other curious ones. If I watched Mission Impossible but no other movies on the list am I more or less bubbled?
