A MS Delta dweller complaining about poor trashy mountain folks
It’s odd for Delta whites to see a substantial amount whites in other areas of the country being poor as shite. A high majority of middle and upper class whites in the Delta live in bubbles on their own farms, or a handful of neighborhoods in 4 or 5 towns, and we only socialize with each other, so it shocks the less traveled of us to see whites living in poverty. We see the poorness of our area, but it’s like 95% blacks, so it doesn’t register until we are somewhere else.
ETA: For the record, this is not an excuse, and is a bad thing. It’s just the way it’s shaken out over the course of the last 75 years of agricultural mechanization.

Where else am I supposed to keep the horde of snakes in fish tanks I own and speak to in an almost-romantic tone? I keep them there in case one of my kin is gunned down by a mob boss in the big city so it's easy for me to transport them to exact Good-Book Vengeance (Old Testament) on the assassins in a whimsical fashion while my other cousins shoot bows and arrows and throw hatchets at them. You've never even been to Kentucky, have you?

Ever been to Puerto Rico? The buses are decked out in wild colors and neon lights. They deliver kids to school in the morning and are party buses in the evenings.

It’s a pretty solid place to store your girlfriend’s random chopped up body parts if you’re a psycho hipsters living in the Bywater.

So I guess I need to park mine behind the barn?
If I can get some tires that won't immediately go flat, I'll do that next week.

Removed the sides, top, and the seats. Used it to haul hay.

You haven't seen the monstrosoties that ride around Houma during Mardi Gras. Some are open tops, and others just lifted the top so riders can hang out the top sippin' an alcoholic beverage.
Then you have some double entendres for bus names.

Maybe because they drive for the local district?

I’ve got an old school bus but I converted it. They are typically cheap, usually pretty well built and maintained. I also imagine they are hard to dispose of.

No, they are sturdy. Around here in Florida in recent years, they have been cutting off the roofs and hauling tons of watermelons to market. They have so much weight, the sides bulge out.
They could have reinforced frames, but doubt these farmers would spend the money.
