This is a statement on the many people I have met who are one generation removed from the trailer park. They like to put on the Scarlett O'Hara accent.

I remember , when I was younger, guys would go to an auto parts store and buy a bunch of chrome or gold crap to stick on their "less than" cars. Now they put more money into them. They buy fairly expensive rims and chop them down. The result is the same. It's still a Pinto dude!

You cannot buy culture. You can rub and rub, but you will only end up with a shinny rotten apple. If you are not truly interested in such things you wont pull it off . BE WHO YOU ARE!
