This sounds like me! Except replace "dump" with "Goodwill" (my husband would say they are one and the same... unless I find something good for him! LOL!)

1. You take your dog for a walk and you both use the same tree.

Check.

4. You burn your yard rather than mow it.

Check

12. Your grandmother has 'ammo' on her Christmas list.


I'll do you one better. Mine shot her boyfriend in the hand with a .22 pistol. So, ... check.

14. You've been involved in a custody fight over a hunting dog.

Custody fight? How about fist fight? Check. (Well, I haven't done it, but I've seen it done, and it wasn't a hunting dog. That's all that kept someone from getting shot. See previous item.)

15. You go to the stock car races and don't need a program.

Check.

16. You know how many bales of hay your car will hold.


One. Check.

17. You have a rag for a gas cap.
Been there, done that. Check.

18. Your house doesn't have curtains, but your truck does.
Technical departure: My car had house speakers in it when I was a teenager.

19. You wonder how service stations keep their restrooms so clean ?
No, I don't. I KNOW how we do it. :lol: :lol:

20. You can spit without opening your mouth.

Check.

22. Your lifetime goal is to own a fireworks stand.

No, we leave that to the UPC folks around here. Seriously.

23. You have a complete set of salad bowls and they all say 'Cool Whip' on the side.
When I was a kid, we ate cereal from them. So, check.

25. Your working TV sits on top of your non-working TV
Have done that. So, check.

28. You've used a toilet brush to scratch your back.
I will exercise my right to remain silent. :lol: :wink:

Now what a minute, my wife is from WV and I don't appreciate you talking about her like that........just kidding! :D But Paully is right. You can make fun of rednecks but not COGOPers. It's funny that the thread was about the COGOP not TCOG. But it was TCOG folks who got upset!

This is the most insensitive post I have seen in a coons.....wait... in a long time. I think these people need prayer rather than being the brunt of someones cruel jokes. You posters should be ashamed to call yourselves Christians. This post should be removed as it is offensive to any Appalacian American.

Hey, who says this list isn't COGOP (or COG, TCOG,etc)?

Just read the list again and imagine them with beehives and long skirts and throwing in a few "halleluyers" or "whoop, whoop...Gloo-ray" and it may well be the same crowd!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
