HI, this thread is in response to all the "You know you're a redneck when..." jokes. I don't like rednecks.

You know you're an intellectual when:

You'd rather listen to the Smashing Pumpkins than watch the Super Bowi.

You spend a lot of time thinking of chord progressions when you're at work away from your instrument

You'd rather look like an emaciated British rock star than a weightlifter.

You prefer coffee and a telecaster to beer and chicken wings.

You will only wear black, leather shoes with jeans, never sneakers.

You'd much prefer to wear a Lou Reed t shirt than get a tattoo.

You'd rather drink hot tea and research the great rock albums on the internet than attend an alcoholic fueled party.

You really don't encounter anyone like you in your daily life.

When an interestinv movie comes out, you very much enjoy going to Metacritic to read the professional reviews.

There's nothing more boring to you than a car chase scene in a film. Unless it's a long shootout, or a huge explosion.

You will live forever but you will be alone.

You must read while you eat dinner. You never eat unless you are reading at the same time.

You know you're an intellectual when:

You attract women by the way you act.
