We could talk about banjo tunes, instead.

My signature on a canoeing forum is "Paddle faster, I hear banjos." ;D
Was Deliverance by chance set in this area? Great movie!

I had no idea of the origin of "hillbilly" or "redneck" until I recently saw a TV show about the origin of words. Both are used derisively, but both historically meant a particular ethnic group (originally Scottish in both cases), so equating either with stupidity could be considered an insult (accidental, in this case) to a group of people. In both cases, these are people whose ancestors immigrated to the U.S. under difficult conditions, and successfully settled a challenging area.I just assumed hillbilly was a term used generically, just as redneck is.
I think one of the greatest abilities a person can have is the ability to laugh at themselves. Our society is far too PC for it's own good. Most folks I know from Appalachia, or the Ozarks, or any other so-called "hillbilly" area would laugh right along.
If I ever get offended at a cultural pun directed at me, I might as well hang it up.
Deliverance did have some fun paddling scenes, classic movie.

So did 50 Shades of Grey. Oh wait, that was a different kind of paddling!
