the psychology is "you can live in your car but you cant drive your house" which is an epithet from the racist south...

It's just amazing. Where are these people the rest of the year? Is it that fairs being them out en masse?

One thing I always think about is "how can I tap into their money?" They're dumb so it should be easy to get it from them. Even if they have just a little, there's so many of them it adds up.

Mardi Gras parades bring out more freaks than the fair.

Bingo. I see it all the time. A perfect example are my son's friends. I can tell usually within the first 15-20 minutes when they come over which of them come from good homes and which come from trashy ones. And it has nothing to do with what brand clothes they're wearing or what gadgets they have, instead it has everything to do with what sort of manners they have and how they act. I think one reason why so many people are so trashy nowadays is because they mistakenly think money makes them immune from being seen as trashy. We as a society have lost sight of the fact it's our manners, how we treat others, and how we present ourselves in general that matters when it comes to not being seen as trashy.


Great post. Louisiana is one of the trashiest states in the country so, for the most part, people that live there, even the ones with money, are going to be trashy.

There were people in another thread saying that you can't be trashy and have yeti coolers, boats, F250s, etc.

Exhibit A

What defines "trashy"? Is it a combination of multiple things? Being overweight might not be inherently trashy but being over weight and wearing a crop top exposing your belly tattoo, trashy.

No teeth?
Terrible hygiene?
Having your kid with you on a school night at a fair listening to a cover band while drinking bud heavies?
