Someone stick a sock in her mouth. A dirty, stinky, crusty sock.

An old stinky Jock strap would be more to her taste than a sock.
I think it was BCP who used to have a date night sock. The sock was the date and he went all the way with it.
That Bette Midler would have the nerve to call anyone else "strung out and illiterate"....

She was a fluke for a few years then Hallmark went into business with their fluff movies and the white trash movies failed to draw crowds.

You gotta to give it to those West Virginians though, a tough bunch, close knit, and if you don't belong, (as a visitor), and go against their culture in some way, say some off colored remark, maybe even look at them funny to give the impression you are mocking .... they will come together and make any necessary corrections. Politeness carries the day in West Virginia. I wonder why there haven't been any burnings and lootings by BLM or Antifa types in West Virginia? Hummmmm?

Sounds like home to me. It's a bit like that in some places here in St. Mary's County.
Places that haven't been completely taken over by the come-downers.

It it only acceptable to degrade and dehumanize a group of people based on their socio-economic status if they are White.
