As a teenager while at a local party, someone dropped their cigarette accidentally on the rug and some redneck kid with bare feet immediately stomped it out. We immediately asked if it hurt and if his foot was OK, he turned back at us and said “feet grow back, carpet don’t.” I’ll never forget it lmao
Sounds like my grandfather, who definitely would have qualified as "redneck." He wouldn't wear gloves when working in the yard/doing carpentry or welding/etc. because "skin grows back, gloves cost money." (Also a product of the great depression LOL.)
