The other day, a Southerner explained to me the difference between a "Yankee" and a "Damn Yankee".

A "Yankee" comes South to vacation.

A "Damn Yankee" comes South and stays.

The last words from a southern redneck is "hey guys, watch this".

Born in central Ohio but we lived 40 years near the Mason Dixon Line. I like and understand the middle of the country, North and South. Middle Americans are warm and gracious and polite and know where milk and eggs come from. I really don't know WHAT a red neck is but suspect it is someone who was raised in the country. If so, they are generally good folks.

I heard "damn Yankees" all the time growing up in Manhattan in the fifties. Dad was a Brooklyn Dodgers fan.
