A redneck joke is a joke about rednecks—working-class, rural, southern white Americans.[1] For example,[2]
A genie comes upon an African-American, a Jew and a redneck. He grants each a wish. The African-American wishes that his people be returned to Africa; the Jew that his people be returned to Israel. Once the redneck realises that all the blacks and Jews have left America, he wishes for a beer.
These jokes can be a form of classism, depending on the teller. Jeff Foxworthy is a comedian that specializes in telling redneck jokes.[3] For example:
- "If you've ever cut your grass and found a car, you might be a redneck."
- "If you've ever been too drunk to fish, you might be a redneck."
- "If you've ever made change in the offering plate ... guilty ... you might be a redneck."
- "If you have no cars that are mobile and 14 cars that aren't, then you might be a redneck."[4]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
