Here's a redneck musing for you...
A coworker of mine decided to tell me a "funny" story today. Her family is from Kentucky and her family line is rich with "You might be a redneck if..." examples. This was her best one.
One of her uncle's brothers (yes I know the semantics are stupid, but that's part of the fun) thought the joke about redneck saying "You might be a redneck if...the phrase "watch this!" is followed by a life threatening stunt." was pretty funny.
Well, not long after hearing this joke, he was on a cargo train (why, I do not know) and turned to his brother saying, "Watch this!". He proceeded to jump off the train.......and died.
Yes, that was the punch line. As my coworker laughed, I stood there not having any idea what to say. How do you respond to that?! I told her that it was kinda funny, and at least the idiot is no longer contributing to the gene pool, but that she may refrain from using that as a "joke." It's more of an anecdote to exemplify stupidity. She kept on laughing and said it was a always a funny story for the family to remember. Yeah.
Don't go to Kentucky.
