How to tell if you are a redneck Mechwarrior

This list I made would make more sense and be funnier if you've played a MechWarrior game.
Feel free to post it where ever you want, as long as you give me credit.
Also check these links out for a little more understanding of some of them.
BattleMech Technology
Mech Factory Also be sure to click the three links at the bottom of the page (Cockpit, Startup, Operations)


You might be a redneck MechWarrior if...

1 – You have confederate flags painted on your Mechs where the insignias usually go.
2 – Your water supply is filled with beer, not water.
3 – Out of the 8 Mechs you own, 6 of them are disabled and unusable.
4 – And not because of battle damage.
5 – You are such a couch potato, that your sense of balance has atrophied, impairing your ability to balance your Mech with a neurohelmet.
6 – You use an old house window air conditioner as a heat sink.
7 – The directions to your house include, "Turn off of the paved road."
8 – Police have confiscated your navicomputer.
9 – The neighbors have started a petition over your Mechs’ paint schemes.
10 – It is impossible to get to your house without a Mech.
11 – And your Mech usually steps on and crushes at least three dogs on the way there.
12 – Your Mech’s AMS (Anti-Missile System) fires at anything that flies in too close, be it paper, stones, or birds.
13 – When hunting for deer, you bring your Mech.
14 – And you kill the deer using your Mech’s onboard weapons.
15 – Such as PPC’s, gauss rifles, or LBX 20 autocannons.
16 – You are always complaining about the sad state of the paved roads.
17 – You’ve ever used a hemp rope to repair myomer damage.
18 – You designated nav points at the local tavern, cinema, convenient store, and Taco Bell.
19 – The air filter on your Mech has to be cleaned every week.
20 – Because of your B.O.
21 – You’ve configured one of the MFD’s (Multi-Function Displays) to tell you how much beer and donuts you have left.
22 – You have two giant, fuzzy dice hanging from the roof of your Mech’s cockpit.
23 – You mow your lawn and find a spare autocannon.
24 – You repair structure damage to your Mech using parts from an old, derelict Volkswagen bus.
25 – You bought your neurohelmet at a garage sale.
26 – And it was made in a third-world country.
27 – You use a weed whacker to dust the controls in the cockpits of your Mechs.
28 – You have configured the HUD to display beer cans over friendly units and donuts over hostiles.
29 – When the fusion reactor runs out of water, you pour beer into it.
30 – You use your Mech’s communications jammer to get your kids to stop talking on their cell phones.
31 – You bought an 8-disc CD player to put in your Mech.
32 – Getting a package from the post office requires bringing rations for the long trip.
33 – You watch DVD movies on your one of the MFD screens.
34 – You’ve ever stepped on a deer with your Mech.
35 – On purpose.
36 – The amount of roadkill on the ground is inverse proportional to the distance from your house.
37 – There is a gun rack inside the cockpit.
38 – You use your Mech to hold up one end of the clothesline.
39 – You’ve ever had to battle ecoterrorists.

And finally:
40 – Hostile Atlas Mechs back down from yer mamma!
Made you look

I think 36 is the best one. Of course, I'm not a die-hard Mechwarrior fan, so I didn't get all of them (like 17, e.g.)...
