What makes some one a "hillbilly"?

    I think that it just means someone from the country. My grandma told all of us our whole life that we were hillbillies- and the only difference that I saw between myself and kids at my school is that we lived out in the country. I dressed the same as them, had the same interest, except for maybe spending more time outside.

    The dictionary states-a person from a backwoods or other remote area, esp. from the mountains of the southern U.S.
