    You can mock the cowboy hat
    And her kid who sold some smack

    You can mock dude with his gun
    You can mock those unearned runs

    You can mock their pension plan
    Mock their short attention span

    You can mock the Sunshine laws
    Seems they had some tragic flaws

    Mock them voting in the hall
    You can mock them one and all

    ... if you approach green lights by pressing on the brakes

    ... If your attempt to turn left onto Kingston Pike ends pathetically with you stopping your car in full while blocking both lanes of oncoming traffic, then backing up, finding that the car behind you has filled the wait lane. So you back up so that at least one lane of traffic passes

    ... If you drive as if you have nowhere to go and all the time in the world to get there

    ... you might be a Knox Countian.

    ... but you're definitely from East Tennessee!

    ....if you have yet to discover the purpose of the turn signals on your car
    ....if you wouldn't use them if you did know
    ....if you slow to 30 mph while merging onto the interstate

    Sorry - can you tell I've had a bad day, traffic-wise?

    You might be a Knox Countian if...

    ...banana republics refuse you entry, citing doubts about your visa because of "irregularities" and "government malfeasance" at your point of origin.

    ...even Cocke Countians pity you.

    You might be a Knox County Commissioner if...

    ...you take "open process" to mean that anyone can bid on your vote, not just the developers!

    ...if you never, never, ever, fucking ever use your turn indicators. (sorry, sore spot with me)
    Farewell, but you will be
    with me, you will go within
    a drop of blood circulating in my veins
    or outside, a kiss that burns my face
    or a belt of fire at my waist.

    I was told that the real reason people don't use their signals around here is because... they don't want everybody knowing their business.
