Living Up To The Stereotype...
 

Yes "BRO" I Live on Long Island. I curse... a lot. I say "yo", and i say it often. I sure as hell pump my own gas. I know what real pizza tastes like, and i know that a bagel is much more than a fuckin roll with a hole in the middle. All good nights must end at a diner - preferably with chicken fingers or curly fries, And yes it's a HERO, not a hoagie, or a grinder, and i wash it down with soda, not pop or cola. Two words...mother fucker. I dont go down to the shore - i go to the beach... And boardwalk brawls are just a part of the atmosphere. Yes, i have a DAWG, and i drink CAWFEE. I know that 55mph really means 80. When someone cuts me off, they get the horn AND the finger ...and expect it. I'm from fuckin LONG ISLAND...how do you like me now?


Whats your geographical stereotype and do you live up to it?

(Just thought this would be fun...please follow suit and reply)

Geez - I am not sure I can top that one! Not all of us that live in the Northwest are socialists and tree huggers! Not all of us drink coffee and live at a Starbucks (nasty coffee to begin with). Not all of us love the rain or the beloved bunch of losers known as the Mariners baseball team. Give me the good old hard working, conservative, down to earth, common sense folks from the mid west any day of the week. SOMEONE GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!!!! Whew - thanks for asking Thirteenthstep, I've been needing to get that off my chest for some time now. :bang:

I live in the Northwest and I DO hug trees... :p. I do not like coffee in the slightest nor do I enjoy a good microbrew... or any beer for that matter. I'm ok with the rain and like most other Seattlites I love it when the Mariners are doing good and care less when they suck. Yup, fairweather fan all the way! Not sure what other Seattle stereotypes there are... LOL

Southeast represent!

But seriously, I am not a redneck. I do own a gun, but I don't hunt, or fish. I can't stand country music and I don't wear tight jeans. I don't ahve sex with my brother, cousin, my uncle is not my daddy. I do not live in a trailer and i have all my teeth.

I do however drink beer from a longneck bottle, park in my yard, wash my car in my bathing suit and can't for the life of me figure out what shoes are supposed to be for? Why not just go barefoot?

:nopics:
:D :D :D

Lol...wow...you guys are great..thanks for replying...btw..Mariners do suck...you guys were good when you had Griffey, A-Rod and Randy Johnson...

2/3 now play in my hometown, and suck ass...and the third hasnt been the same since he left...

Call it the Seattle Jinx..

I'm a California girl.... totally, ya know? Until 2 weeks ago, I lived in the wine country and sipped a good red most every night. I love sushi, am ok with tofu (which one of my daughter's eats almost daily), and I defend my grown children's right to pierce and tattoo whatever they want (like I have a choice?), AS LONG AS they don't ask me for the money to do it! No, I don't have any tats of my own, and last week I had to unpierce my nose, which I HATE having been forced to do. Another of my daughter's was married last summer and her brother officiated at the ceremony.... complete with a 4" green mohawk ( I thought his grandparents were gonna vaporlock, lol)

lol...Cali...how wonderful..I love that place...me and my band, (Yes I have a band, I sing lead.) toured all over the country this summer from June to late July, hit up southern California and went into Napa for a bit, beautiful place.

BTW, think its awesome that you're so liberal and open-minded like that to let your kids dress, act and behave how they want within reason. YOU ARE THE STEREOTYPICAL KICK ASS PUNK ROCK MOM! GO YOU!

xXx

Thanks for the compliment, ThirteenthStep! Napa is very near where I lived prior to my move to SoCal earlier this month, I was in Sonoma County. Beautiful part of the world, as is my new home. Let me know if your band is ever in the L.A. area, ok?

I'm pretty liberal minded, yes... but you'd not know it to look at me. I look pretty conservative, until I open my mouth, lmao.

I am a Newfoundlander & a Canadian. Ergo, I have beer in my fridge all the time.

I love hockey, too, of course!

Since I've lived all over the country, I've somehow managed to fit many stereotypes.

I'm a pothead, yes I've lived on the west coast.

I have road rage, yes I live in the country's biggest city.

I'm an Irish Newf so I love to step dance as I drink my Guinness.

I live in the most multicultural city in the world so have slang/curse words from all over the world.

Gamysue, ya teefin' blood clot!! (Translation: Fuck you in Greek, Teef = thief in Trinny/Jamaican slang, blood clot = motherfucker in Jamaica)

Ya see me 'pon road, star, ya chat to me no more! (Translation: Don't ever talk to me again "superstar" -- Jamaican)

Again with Toronto, I have foods from all over the world in my fridge -- curry leaves, starfruit, Tibetan leftovers . . .

This jumbled message has been brought to you by the spliff-smokin', beer-totin' stereotype from the north

^^^ I hear ya, Steph... I like pot too, but don't dare indulge. You never know when someone might hand you a cup and point you to the little room down the hall... sigh.

Ahh...Toronto...how I love that city...awesome place to go to party. Raves, a great hXc scene and awesome people. very open, very liberal.

Great to see I'm not the only spliff-smoking, beer-totin, double-fistin sonofabitch to grace these boards

:x: to Steph

And yes, Stephie has an admirer now, ;)

I live in Georgia and no I don't dip snuff or chew tobacco. I have a pickup with appropriate sized tires not those monster mudders some have. I own guns but don't hunt anymore. I don't own a John Deere cap. I'm 47 years old and listen to rock and roll, yes the same things my kids listen to and classic rock as well. I don't consider myself uneducated, though I get the impression those above the Mason-Dixon assume such. I have hair halfway down my back and have for the most part always had long hair. That doesn't make me a stoner. I am most importantly a Pixie and that makes me special.



^^^ Another admirer Bro... she has lots of us.

I’m from Merlin. We have a special way of speaking here. The Merlin Dialect is spoken by the people long the western margin of the Chesapeake Bay, roughly bounded by a line starting at Towson, west to Frederick, then following the string of McDonalds along Route 50 to the Bay. These are the Lands of Merlin. They are divided into fiefdoms called Cannies (Anna Runnel Canny, Ballmer Canny, etc.). The dialect area is centered on a city named Bawlmer.

Some samples of Bawlmerese…

Arn - what you do on an arnin board
Bleef - what you bleev in, your faith
Canny - a state gubmit division, such as Anna Rundel or PeeJee Canny
Downey Ayshen - where everyone goes in the summer
Error - a time measurement of 60 minutes
Farmin - the people who fight fars
Farn Gin - used for taking farmin to fars.
Pleece - the people who uphold the law.
Sarn - what a pleece car or Farn Gin makes noise with.

(with apologies) :)

lol...Maryland...gotta love it...just dont get me started on Baltimore...

Baltimore gives all its residents the gift that keeps on giving...THE CLAP!
