Post a stereotype that applies to you.
Myself, I'm a divorced guy who's learning to ride a motorcycle. :D

Anyone else?

32. Hey, welcome margaritamama!
I do, but my inflections aren't as harsh. I don't speak in caps nearly as much I feel comfortable writing them.

And I'm more promiscuous with my hugs here. :hug:

I learned along time ago you can't make everyone happy so just please yourself. Then you know what everything else falls into place. Thanks for the welcoming!

49. Thank you!
I pick my battles. I usually have to wait for a really good struggle. People are scared, in general. And on this board, if you're literal-minded you'll get crushed!

40. I like big butts and I can not lie

You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waste
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung
Wanna pull up front
Cuz you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring

54. Southern "redneck" girl who's finishing her PhD in history.
My daddy raised me to be independent. I enjoy gardening, raising my chickens, driving the tractor, tooling around in the jeep. I like riding the dirt bike, the go-cart, driving the pick-up. I can build anything I need, change the oil in my car and do other minor repairs, do electrical and plumbing work. In my younger days, I'd dustroll anyone who pissed me off, and, yeah, I've been in my share of fights. I drink beer, and enjoy sitting outside by a campfire.

I'm a proud southern democrat who can hold her own in any debate. I'm finishing my doctorate and consider myself an intellectual--I'm well read and love to discuss historical methodology with other historians.

I'm divorced, have a kid, and don't date because I look down on the redneck guys around here. :D
