This dude knows what's up. If you're throwing a party with a bunch of women, put on some really lovely country about drinking (like every song is about drinking) and it'll be good to go in an hour.

The most annoying thing to me about all of this is that bro trucks have become the new ricers/krauts. I still see plenty of lowered Civics and VWs but they're usually being driven rather reasonably. It's the jackasses in their pristine, jacked up F-Series and Dodge Rams who are tearing rear end through neighborhoods and slamming the gas at every green light.

Oh and of course there's those coal rolling fuckers.

That has nothing to do with country, it's in fashion right now. Those trucks are being bought buy the skinny jean lumberjack city dwelling hipster crowd because it adds to the illusion that they are really outdoorsy and go hiking every weekend.

As for the rolling coal people, let them ruin their engines, long term better for the environment when they've blown up the truck they owe 60 grand on and have to ride the bus. That fad is already pretty much over now.

Why is Johnny Cash just so good? He's the only country singer where after a few moments I like whatever he is playing (usually) regardless of what style the song is written in.

How did he cut across so many lines?

its always weird when i leave texas bc im used to seeing giant cracker-rear end trucks as a road majority

i drive mr poops truck when i need to haul something its twelve stories off the ground and i dont even know why im legally allowed to operate it like i had to learn to use side mirrors and poo poo bc looking over my shoulder just wont cut it

thats the only place i listen to country i turn it to the outlaw country channel on sirius and then i pee in fate's eye and dare it to stop me from getting to home depot

Best thing is when you see them out with their parents and mom and dad are dressed nicely as they get out of their Infiniti, and then junior climbs out of the back door dressed in his redneck costume and his F350 is parked next to his mom's Lexus in their driveway in their gated community which is miles away from the nearest farm or country thing.

Also drugs and being just a cool dude. He did a lot of amphetamines and barbiturates and was almost killed by an ostrich.
Modern country is all pretenders that consume mostly light beer and cigarettes and have never been attacked by livestock.

Has anyone actually seen a coal roller in real life? I've seen it online, but it seems pretty rare to actually see IRL.

All the time. Central Indiana hotspots: Kokomo, 465 and surrounding areas from the airport to NewPal, Greenwood, Noblesville (aka Nobletucky) all of Madison County, and of course a few strays here and there.

Although I generally have a strong opinion against country, I do have to confess to liking a handful of Johnny Cash and Hank III songs. Yelawolf's country songs aren't the worst things ever either.

The only "country" thing I can get into is Nascar. Even then, many of the rednecks are gone now. Compare Nascar now to 1996.
