depends on where you are really. i live in lafayette, and the whole "prep" thing hit a few years ago. i also see many posers. but in the smaller towns, it gets countrier. and with governor blanco trying to get broadband more accesable, that stereotype might just change.
sorry for the double=post, im new. but anywho, that reminds me of a story. one time, my dad took on of his friends who happened to be black on his first fishing trip, farther than he had ever been form home, at a camp ground, very redneck, as in rebel flags at every houseboat redneck. well they were fishing and tons of people in boats were going really fast an makin a lot of waves. not knowing of racist rednecks, he said, "HEY!!!! YOU'RE FUCKING WITH OUR FISHING!!!" MY DAD FREAKED OUR AND WAS LIKE, "DUDE SHUT UP MAN THEY'RE GONNA KILL US!!!1 DONT YOU SEE THE REBEL FLAGS!?!?!?!" sorry yall im just full of coffee and little lanyappe (southern/cajun for extra) facts about louisiana.
northerners (yankees j/j) like southern food, namely crawfish and gumbo, but lots of fat and lard are involved, and healthy food is considered somewhat blasphemy. for example, my family considers food made north of I-49 bland, and when my dad or i cook beef, theres a gravy that is about 50% grease/fat. tastes good too.
he's right, not to be a racist though (which i am not), the south is populated with african americans as well as whites (many racist), but certain parts you will not see a black man for miles. why? because there are people who are just mean to african ameicans so much that itll scare the biggest black guy with the deepest voice stereotyped man senseless, some whites too. growing up in south louisiana, i hear the n-word a lot, most of the time with a heavy accent.
depends on what is considered boring, and that vaires greatly from person to person. if youd want peace and quiet, a place like that is whered you go. i live very close to towns like these, not mink (come to think of it, ive lived in louisiana all of my life and i havent heard of it)but similar, although with land lines and cellular phones, and with like, about 100 people, it can be very nice

I don't blame 'em for the tight security. There's bound to be a terrorist attack (actually saw it in a dream).
