For the first time ever #RedneckScentedCandles is a top trending hashtag on Twitter.
This morning hashtag #RedneckScentedCandles is the top trending hashtag on Twitter. The usual Twitter response to a top trending hashtag is to miss-use it to promote other stuff. Some is related, but most is not.
It always takes a while to get to the bottom of this. There is actually a Redneck Scented Candle on sale on Etsy.
WesternWax sells the Redneck Woman Scented Candle. It's a 14 oz Soy Candle in Upcycled Mason Jar selling for $20. The scent is an exotic blended fragrance of raspberry, cantaloupe, watermelon, jasmine and violet.
The text on the candle is what makes this candle an fun present: "A redneck woman can cook and clean, says her prayers and supports her country. She knows how to bait a hook, chug a beer, get dirty and drive a truck. But don't ever forget, she knows how to load more than a washing machine, and if you hurt her once, she'll shoot you twice!"
