My new neighbor Ozzie, who grew up in the Bronx, thinks that the South is a place “without much culture.” Ozzie acts as if he is an expert on the subject, even though his Southern experience has been confined to living in the D.C. suburbs for a few years before retiring out here to the Blue Ridge Mountains last year.
(It should be noted that Ozzie’s real name is “Osgood”, but he is very sensitive about that fact being public knowledge. Don’t tell anybody…)

In my rural county we'd get these types. A very high percentage of them weren't shy in telling us how unknowing we were and would act as the long hoped for knight to save us from our misery. The others would act the same but they usually were more reticent about it. And most would be gone back where they came from within a year. Its as if they saw a brochure about the romance of country living. Hoping your neighbor gets straight or skedaddles.
