It is an odd place to put that adjective--awkward--it doesn't belong. "Cotton-pickin important" is very odd term. I've actually never heard anyone use that adjective.
Kind of like Desantis with "monkey it up."
They are odd terms that most people do not use, but that these guys went out of their way to use.
Perhaps when the English speaking educate themselves.
On what? Vernacular English? Until I see you writing here in proper Queen's English, your statement doesn't carry any water.
Get it, "carry water"???? Hmmm, "carry water"? It's called slang. Perhaps you've heard of it. I'd say about half our spoken language is slang or came from slang. Oh my GOD!!!! Is "carry water" forbidden now as well?
Perhaps when the English speaking educate themselves.
It's not a matter of education, but of indoctrination; the Absolutely Politically Correct see any idiom which doesn't fit their definition of "sensitivity" as an attempt to turn back the clock. It's a scene out of 1984

Same old one-line answer, peddled by the same self-appointed elite, to the same simple mindset.

A couple of my now dead older relatives helped pick cotton. It was a hard but honest job. There is nothing wrong with that term.
