white trash



Wikipedia has the following definition:


White trash or poor white trash is an American English pejorative term referring to poor white people in the United States, suggesting lower social class and degraded living standards.


OR people who have fallen on hard times in the economic crisis..........

The term suggests outcasts from respectable society living on the fringes of the social order who are seen as dangerous because they may be criminal, unpredictable, and without respect for authority whether it be political, legal, or moral.


The term is usually a slur, but may also be used self-referentially by whites to jokingly describe their origins, as in the humorous book by Michelle Lamar and Molly Wendland :

The White Trash Mom Handbook: Embrace Your Inner Trailerpark, Forget Perfection, Resist Assimilation into the PTA, Stay Sane, and Keep Your Sense of Humor
(2008).

How to gather the nessesary information

SCORING BREAKDOWN:
0-300: Not white trash. We’re sure you have tons of other undesirables in your city, but they’re most likely not white trash.
301-600:  A little white trash.  There’s probably pockets of your city that have tons of white trash, but most of the city probably doesn’t have much.
601-800: Your city is pretty white trashy.  Not only are there pockets of white trash, but there’s a fair amount of white trash in every sector.  Most likely you can’t go very far without hearing the cry of an illegitimate child or seeing a car parked on a lawn.
801-999: Your city is in the white trash elites. You look down on other cities that have "parks" and "libraries."
1000+: Jerry Springer White Trash. Your city is crawling with white trash. The majority of shirts are sleeveless or mesh.  You most likely know someone who’s had the fact that they fathered a child revealed to them on a talk show.  Most times when you sit down to eat, the dish can be described by saying the name of the meat, and adding the word "casserole" to the end of it.
