I Am American (southern)
I used to make fun of southernisms and southern people. I've been here so long that I've turned into one of them and realized everyone else I know is one of them too. It's the ignorant rednecks that I don't like. I pretty much hate anyone who specifically tries to belong to one social group. Goth kids. Metal heads. Stoners. Rednecks. Variation is the only thing that makes life intersting, even if repetition and familiarity are the safe and comfortable. I get along with anyone nowdays. Just find a subject I have something to say about and I'll present monologues for any moron. I'm going to buy a shotgun and take up hunting. shotguns are awesome. Any fool with basic motor skills can stop a burgular with one too. You have to be pretty close to be effective even with slugs, so no dead-eye required.
