Redding

What is Redding?


1.

Voted the Best Small Town in CT, Redding retains authenticity in the face of prevalent mini-mansion developments found in the rest of fairfield county. Looking for a gas station, restaurant, or ATM? Good luck. Roads rarely accomodate two cars at one time, but this doesn't stop us from pushing 60 mph. Although a percentage of adolescents attend private school, most of the youth in Redding develop their drinking stamina in the grips of public school. It's safe to say that most Barlow students have tried most drugs by highschool graduation. Kids have known eachother since their requisite involvement in youth soccer or lacrosse, and your best friend's dad was the coach. "Best car" in highschool was awarded to a super-expensive SUV, but the car you loved the most were your friends' old school volvos and you mostly traveled around in hoardes of Jeeps. We push drunkenness beyond all social acceptability, and listen to music that you will never hear on the radio. Popularity is a meritocracy; interesting people reign. Also, we're proud to be from a blue state and while the rest of Fairfield County voted for Bush, we were Kerry all the way. See you at the late night funk party!

Want mansions, trees, and alcohol- try Redding. Full of preppy kids, their 'ghetto' counterparts, and the drug-loving Eastonites who inevitably influence quite a few Reddingites to join in a game of 'ruit or a smoke around the really expensive car -or in it (Hotboxing). Currently at the Redding-Easton public high school (Joel Barlow) there are quite a few cars priced over the average starter home, including 3 BMW i-series, an Escalade or two(one black and one white), a yellow H-2, a few wranglers with a couple sporting the necessary snowplow and enlarged tires, and, of course, the Audi. Everyone at Barlow wears either a polo, a Northface, and American Eagle (with a side of Birkenstocks and pot) or black, black, black, and more black. Oh yes, and the occasional "bootylicious" wanna-bee and the kids that come to school so wasted they have forgotten to change their clothes for days.

"My house- 8 o'clock, you coming?"

"Yeah, yeah sure, what should I bring?"

"How about some of that expensive stuff and some plastic cups. Park the jeep behind the house. The Redding Police may be drivin' by, ya know?"

A smallish city, vastly expanding, consisting mainly of caucasians. Those residing in Redding who aren't caucasian usually stay in groups of large numbers, since a large part of the white population are racist assholes. Residents are usually one form of white trash or rednecks, slutty whores or actual prostitutes. filled with tweekers, ignorant morons, and religious fanatics, this is a city that no one ever visits voluntarily, but once someone ends up in Redding they find it extrmely difficult to ever escape. A vast black hole of filled with shit, and very few intelligent persons.

"We traveled through the northernmost area in California until we came across a somewhat interesting looking place called Redding, little did we know it was actually a vast shithole filled with mornonic tweekers and slutty whores."

The best small town in CT, Redding is host to many of the stereotypes also found throughout Fairfield County, CT. Most families reel in over $150,000 a year, and live in $600,000+ homes, with more than a handful of houses priced at over a million dollars. This is to be expected after all, it is Fairfield County.

The younger generation in Redding attends Joel Barlow High School. Those attending the high school share their learning environment with their fellow Eastonites, making up a student body of about 1000, giving you an idea as to why Redding is the best small town. Due to the small student body, most sports team are unsuccessful, especially football and hockey, although soccer fares considerably well each season. School spirit is nearing an all-time low. A small number of students choose to avoid JBHS and go to private school, but remain close with their public school counterparts.

The school is plagued with wannabe kids yet to find their purpose in life. JBHS is home to no shortage of emo kids and ghetto wannabes. Cliques based on these dress styles and fake personalities form among the entering freshman quickly. The emo kids band together, and the ghetto kids pretend to be 'down' in the 'rougher cities' like Brideport, see B-po, and Norwalk, despite the fact many of them probably only visit relatives in these towns.

By far, the most consistent stereotype among Reddingites is the trademark North Face fleece wearing, Jeep Cherokee or better driving, DMB listening teenager, who is not ashamed to buy weed or alcohol with his parents cash. Unless you are an emo bitch or a ghetto punk, the most popular music to listen to is Dave Matthews Band. When asked why, you typically justify with the comment, "Because it is just so chill". Compared to the nearby, and wealthier towns of Westport and Fairfield, Redding teens sport their pastel colored polos less, but there is no shortage of preppy looks either.

For enjoyment, partying is the name of the game for Redding kids. Beiruit, or 'ruit, as it is commonly called is quickly becoming Redding's favorite pastime. Drugs are fairly common as well, and there have been a considerable number of drug busts at the high school for such a small population. Rich kids with too much time on their hands...

"I left my iPod, cell phone, and dime bag in my North Face. Shit, my Jeep is still running, I forgot to turn down the DMB music too. I'll be right back"

"Must be from Redding..."

In redding there is nothing to do, thats why so many ppl get drunk or high here. there is alot of money, but i dont think the kids show it. i mean we were polos and expensive clothes, but we dont act like snobs.

But while mom and dad are at work or parties, the kis deffentally know how to have a good time, and never get caught. Joel Barlow-the highschool in Redding is shared by the easton kids, The highschool is a shit hole that is still being worked on.

overall redding is a nice place where kids know how to party.

"Damn you can out drink anyone i know, where you from?"

"Redding"

"ohhhh. that explains it"

See redding, is, a, nice, place, no thanks
