IMO, the people of SE KS are the absolute worst. Have a good friend from down there, an attorney, like a good and moral and ethical person, but oh man if I don't want to do something he wants to do it's "you fuckin pussy! you fuckin man of taste and distinction!" over and over again. It's like SE KS talk.
Well, due to its proximity to Oklahoma and Missouri, there is quite a bit of demographic spill-over. There is never a shortage of Busch Light, Mountain Dew, and methamphetamine. That said, while there is a ton of white trash, those people are still in the minority and your friend is probably just an bad person.
