It's associated with the rural south, so the counterpart insult should at least have metropolitan connotations to make it fit S.F. just as well as redneck does Carthage Texas. Since your words can be equally applied to anybody from anywhere without such bias, they do not seem to be as good of a match. | |
| Aug 10, 2017 at 22:12 | comment | added | armatita | @Tonepoet "people [...] who think they are better educated and more enlightened than [...]" and than the OP gave an example of San Francisco (which I assume could be from anywhere). Applying to the example: "Carthage, TX is to redneck as San Francisco, CA is to know-it-all" Does it not cover the apparent intentions of the OP? | |
