It disgusts me. We are laughed at and made fun of for being Bama fans and for living in Alabama. It would be ok if it was once in a while but it's multiple times a day and frankly I am tired of being made fun of and being the only one with the stones to take a stand.
If you think it's cool to be called a Gump or trailer trash then frick you. Otherwise take a stand. Don't put up with it, it makes us look like pussys. At least RA any negative speech directed at Bama fans like Gump etc.

Forrest Gump, though fictional, accomplished more as an idiot-savant than any other person in the history of mankind. Why would I respond negatively?

Also, grow a pair and stop being offended. If these jokes hurt you, then it is likely that they hit home.

Gump is not a pejorative. Dude was awesome and wildly successful. I don't live in bama so sorry about your inferiority complex, but I do live in the heart of gator country and the locals are extremely similar... big deal we are in the south and trailers and rednecks are everywhere. I rather enjoy it vs the large metropoli I've travelled to. Embrace it and move forward man.

I honestly don't care about being called a gump. It doesn't rustle my jimmies. I know that I am not married to my sister, live in a trailer, or a sidewalker who gains all of my worth from UA football.

I also know that most Auburn fans don't act like little brother, and most LSU fans don't smell like corndogs. It's a message board, a world of absurdities, a place where jimmies are meant to be rustled and wit is your only defense.

Step back a little and gain some perspective.

I always wondered why those that live in Alabama take so much redneck shite from the Cajuns. Ive lived in 2 different towns/cities in Louisiana and they take a back seat to no one in trashiness. Quite often im one of the few on the Rant that are actually calling them out on this hilarious hypocrisy and i dont even live in Alabama. Southerners calling other southerners rednecks is about as dumb as it gets. And thats before bringing up the fact that there are plenty of poors in the north and whats the difference between living in a shitty slum hole apt than living in a trailor. I'd take that shite from no one.

For the most part, we're all grown men here. We really don't care if someone calls us names. Especially on an internet message board.

I doubt most here actually live in a trailer, but that's based on what little I know.

If it offends you, then by all means, RA them.

So blackpawnmartyr is the only other one who doesn't mind taking a stand for ride fans and the state of Alabama. Well fine, you fricking gumps can take the abuse from other posters with a smile since it doesn't bother you. Sellouts.

I mean it isn't like we don't call LSU fans anything. It usually goes both ways on here.

I prefer being called an Updyke. The rage that comes from the barners when they call us that makes me smile.

Don't you call Auburn fans "aunecks"?

I like "Gumpdyke" or Rickdaddy's "Gunt". When they mix it up, you know they're really mad.

2011, the first game in Auburn after the death of the tree, I had this old Auburn fan wanting to fight me. He called me an Updyke the entire game. Told me to take my arse home, and I told him I live 30 minutes away. Rammer Jammer had him saying "frick you."

Was I mad? Hell no. This old man wanted to fight me. It was great. Take it with a grain of salt, OP. Names and jabs come with the game. Deal with it and get the sand out of your vag.

One's level of offense to an insult is inversely proportional to intelligence.

I know he was for a while, then had an alt during the season. He's back now. He's fun.

You're going to get offended by name calling from anonymous posters on a message board?

Quit being a fricking pussy and log out.

I've personally always embraced the bammer. I don't think I've seen many self-proclaimed Gumps. Generally I've always thought of Gumps as the crazy, overly sensitive, constant crimson shade wearing rednecks.

It's a message board during the offseason. The only time I get rustled is during the season, after a loss. And then I just avoid certain boards for a few days.
