I am offended you would call yourself a redneck, you need to pick a more
PC name so you don't offend yourself.  

For those of you without a funny bone, this is a joke.

All this social sensitivity sure makes being a redneck difficult. Oh how
I long for the good ole days of social crudeness.

First the ethnic stereotypes. Now we make with the blond and bald jokes?

Isn't this supposed to be a university? Shouldn't we serve as a model of

social sensitivity?

This is why I suggest we develop a new figure of ridicule, a scapegoat
that would pass any test for political correctness. Such a figure would
have to be free of any gender, ethnic, or hair bias. In short, we need
as the butt of our jokes (for butts we must have) a figure not of this
earth.

I suggest, then, that we use the term "Martian."

Thus...

How many Martians does it take to screw in a light bulb?
What did one Martian say to another Martian?
Three Martians walk into a bar...

You get the idea.

Hmm. On second thought, "Martian" does have a traditional human gender
bias. 
And folks from Le Mars, Iowa might get upset.

Rats! Same problem with Venus.

Ahh, I've got it! Uranus! Think of the scatological possibilities...and
all completely politically correct!

All we have to determine now is what to call a resident of Uranus.

A blond was sitting next to an elderly gentleman on a city bus.  She
noticed 
the headline of the newspaper he was reading read "Twelve Brazilian
Soldiers 
Die in Battle."  Upset by the news, the blond asked the gentleman "How
much 
is a brazilian?"

Let's try to avoid the use of the "b word" when referring to those of us
who happen to be "follicle imparied!"

Are bald jokes banned as well? According to my student reviews this
would prevent me from showing up to work.
