Though most probably are not, there are some Johnson County residents who think they are all that and then some. Hopefully their delusions never carry outside of their Overland Park or Olathe compounds. Some people are born with silver spoons in their mouths, some work to get it there. I say, of both, that they look silly with those spoons hanging of their mouths. I have lived in Johnson County now for several months and I know that when I use the restroom, it still smells (putting that politely:-). One family in Overland Park acquired three chicks...which have now grown into three chickens.
How do the elite of Johnson County handle such a thing? "I don't want my hometown to be considered out in the sticks," said one neighbor.
What does this person know about the sticks? Is she stereotyping people who live in the sticks as being something negative. But, most importantly, where the heck is "the sticks?" It's not even a place. It's a bunch of twigs.
"If we let these people have chickens, then next year we'll have cows, pigs and horses," said another neighbor. She must not know her neighbors very well, or misjudges them, because it is not likely on anyones mind to go buy a horse, cow or pig. So I don't know why this statement would be true. Unless chickens produce cows, pigs or horses. I have not seen an egg hatched, but I presumed that none of these come in them. I have nothing against cows, pigs, horses, chickens or sticks. I will not make a good Overland Park resident.
