Even though Foxworthy's main thing was "Ya know yer a redneck if..." and could have been stupid trash a lot of it was actually really damn clever, especially if you were from the south or had an understanding of southern culture. I always liked his definition of "redneck" as "a glorious lack of sophistication." Like... yeah, that's absolutely what redneck used to mean. Now it's just strict adherence to trumpism, lifted trucks, Mossy Oak, operator beards, the jesus, and having a Black friend that's "one of the good ones."

Ron White used to come into a restaurant I worked at years ago. If you didn't pay attention you wouldn't realize it was him. Usually kind of quiet, would just eat and run. If you got the chance to actually get into a conversation with him though he's legit one of the funniest people I've ever met. Which... duh.

I agree, Foxworthy graduated from Georgia Tech he’s not a dumb hick and he may have some fucked up opinions that he’s just not stupid enough to say but his bits are super clever. And I don’t doubt that about Ron White, he’s what happens when clever and charismatic meet and don’t decide to become a cult leader
