I consider myself to be a serious cyclist and I do not remember the last time I wore a jersey while riding a bike in the summer. Some cyclist just don't know what to do with all of their crap, so they need the pockets. Who wants to be any hotter than they have to be.

You have to remember the pilgrims left 17th century Europe because it wasn't religious enough for them

even if you have the greatest upper body around, it doesnt look right going shirtless in public unless you're at the beach or pool

I run cross-country, and we always go around running shirtless on the streets. A lady drove by us one time and told us "Fellas, you look marvelous."

According to my count:

12 say it's acceptable

1 says its unacceptable

Riding a bike shirtless on a warm summer day = NOT redneck
Grocery shopping shirtless (on any day) = Redneck (and disgusting)

LOL, How about parent-teacher conferences?

mmmm, that one is questionable...I would have to say it comes down to what type of shoes he's wearing. and if his body looks like Daniel Craig did in the new 007...

What about showing up to court shirtless?

How about a job Interview?

Hey, I got a good one for ya:

I wear dentures (because the front top was knocked out answering a bar fight when I was a police officer), and I was going to an interview (the job I have now by the way), and after about 5 questions into the interview, I was trying to answer the 6th question, and my top dentures dropped in my mouth, made my lips flapppppp.......and fell on the table in front of me. The persons interviewing me (there were 6 of them), just starred and got red in the face. I think they were more embarrassed then me at the time. I just picked them up and popped them back in, and spat of the answer like nothing happened. I=redneck..........LOL.

One shall not drop dentures and flap like a duck during an interview. One of them voted to hired me because I kept my cool.cYea, My insides were fricken on fire.

Chill, not to go off topic, but did your police department / insurance company / union offer anything more permanent than dentures? There are various implants available.

Sorry for your loss while serving and protecting...

I may be straight but that was one hell of a body

All the medical expenses were paid (and even now I can opt to have implants, and have been thinking here lately in doing just that).

I got hit with the back thick end of a pool cue, and this was the incident that my wife told me to choose: Her or my career. I have had ribs broken, collar bone broken, and two fingers at various times in 12 years.

The dude got 16 years in prison for a one night drinking binge (10 years for the: Agg Bat on LEO, and 6 for drug possession).

Its all good. My back up was about 30 minutes away, and I had to go in alone in a bar, and in most cases, an LEO isnt among friends in a bar.


You might be a redneck IF: You allow your dentures to fall out of your mouth during an interview.

I wasnt embarrassed. I thought it funny actually. My dumbass, LOL.

My favorite of the redneck jokes is: If you were smoking during your wedding ceremony....

I'm sorry Chillen....but I laughed so hard at your story I didn't laugh at you just the story...and def. not how you got there (the fight)...

And yes it was CCR..
