Trucker Hats in Newport Beach?
What is the world coming to?
This is old, but I came across this article last night. A beautifully written satire about the influx of redneck culture into the liberal bastions of the “Blue States”.
“I’m not sure where we went wrong,” says Ellen McCormack, nervously fondling the recycled paper cup holding her organic Kona soy latte. “It seems like only yesterday Rain was a carefree little boy at the Montessori school, playing non-competitive musical chairs with the other children and his care facilitators.”
“But now…” she pauses, staring out the window of her postmodern Palo Alto home. The words are hesitant, measured, bearing a tale of family heartbreak almost too painful for her to recount. “But now, Rain insists that I call him Bobby Ray.”
And it just gets better and better.
