So when the bubbas look around and see me, they figure "He's one of us" and they just let it rip.

I remember once back in the 80's this new couple moved in next door to us.

They came down from Ohio, and the dude worked at a Goodyear Tire Store.

Anyway they invited my wife and I over to get to know the new neighbors.

I guess the dude wanted to fit in with what he thought was southern culture because as an ice breaker he stated off this joke.

"Whats the difference between a nigger and a bucket of shit"?

"The Bucket"

Har har hardy har har.

What an asshole.
Could be an asshole attempt to fit in, or he could have been an Ohio cracker. They're sort of thick down by the river, along the south edge.

Also, see 'briar,' Ohio slur word for someone originally from the 'briar patch' (Kentucky).
