MARTHA STEWART'S TIPS FOR REDNECKS
1. Never take a beer to a job interview.
2. Always identify people in your yard before
shooting at them.
3. It's considered tacky to take a cooler to
church.
4. If you have to vacuum the bed, it is time to
change the sheets.
5. Even if you're certain that you are included
in the will, it is still considered tacky to
drive a U-Haul to the funeral home.
DINING OUT
1. When decanting wine, make sure that you tilt
the paper cup, and pour slowly so as not to
"bruise" the fruit of the vine.
2. If drinking directly from the bottle, always
hold it with your fingers covering the label.
ENTERTAINING IN YOUR HOME
1. A centerpiece for the table should never be
anything prepared by a taxidermist.
2. Do not allow the dog to eat at the table...
no matter how good his manners are.
PERSONAL HYGIENE
1. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this
is a job that should be done in private using
one's OWN truck keys.
2. Proper use of toiletries can forestall bathing
for several days. However, if you live alone,
deodorant is a waste of good money.
3. Dirt and grease under the fingernails is a
social no-no, as they tend to detract from a
woman's jewelry and alter the taste of finger
foods.
DATING (Outside the Family)
1. Always offer to bait your date's hook,
especially on the first date.
2. Be aggressive. Let her know you're interested:
"I've been wanting to go out with you since I
read that stuff on the bathroom wall two
years ago."
3. Establish with her parents what time she is
expected back. Some will say 10:00 PM; Others
might say "Monday." If the latter is the answer,
it is the man's responsibility to get her to school
on time.
THEATER ETIQUETTE
1. Crying babies should be taken to the lobby and
picked up immediately after the movie has ended.
2. Refrain from talking to characters on the screen.
Tests have proven they can't hear you.
WEDDINGS
1. Livestock, usually, is a poor choice for a
wedding gift.
2. Kissing the bride for more than 5 seconds may
get you shot.
3. For the groom, at least, rent a tux. A
leisure suit with a cummerbund and a clean
bowling shirt can create a tacky appearance.
4. Though uncomfortable, say "yes" to socks and
shoes for this special occasion.
DRIVING ETIQUETTE
1. Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles;
Even if the gun is loaded, and the deer is in
sight.
2. When approaching a four-way stop, the vehicle
with the largest tires always has the right
of way.
3. Never tow another car using panty hose and duct
tape.
4. When sending your wife down the road with a gas
can, it is impolite to ask her to bring back beer.
5. Do not lay rubber while traveling in a funeral
procession.
