Acceptable Prejudices

Saw a comedy show at a club in Portland last night. Most of the "comedy" was vulgar and unfunny, but the low point was a guy who started telling "jokes" about people with Southern accents. (As it happened my date was from the South.)

This is one of those prejudices that it's OK to have if you are in sophisticated, elite circles. Disgusting.
