      Originally from Moscow so don't say stupid things like this to other Russians:

      Oh so is it cold all the time (snow all the time)? Um, no. Google it.

      Do you drink a lot of vodka? While this may be true for some Russians, don't assume all drink vodka. Way to stereotype.

      Are you a communist? I just say yes at this point and leave it at that.

      Oh here's a favorite: Do you know my Russian friend so and so? Why yes...it's not like Russia is huge or anything.

      Are you a spy? Just like the communist question...I just say yes.


      I know stereotypes exist for a reason, but come on!

      Being from NC - I have never heard it called this before. My daughter lives in SC and she doesn't call it that either! LOL
      It's just a joke, to make fun of our governor.

      New York takes the cake though, I mean do you know how many times i've heard "WOW SO LIKE, WHAT'S IT LIKE LIVING IN SUCH A BUSTLING CITY? DO YOU RANDOMLY MEET CELEBRITIES?"

      Becuase you know, apparently New York = New York City.

      Yep! Friends from other parts of the country visit NYC and tell me to come meet them. Sure, I'm getting in the car now. See ya in about...never!

      I live in Idaho. People seem to confuse it with Iowa, and if not, they seem to think I live in the boonies. No. There are cities in my state and it's beautiful. Shhh! That part's a well kept secret! :happy:

      Yes I'm from Iowa and I'm proud of it. No, it isn't the potato state or the buckeye state. No, I don't drive a tractor to work. No, I don't wear bib overalls (except in the 90's when they were in style for a hot second but I choose to block that out of my memory). No we are not all farmers, although we do have some damn good sweet corn!

      I am from Alberta, Canada; I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader, and I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dog sled, and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really, really nice.

      :wink:

      Haha, 3 posts in a row about Iowa and Idaho not being the same!

      People think that Iowa is all boonies also. Far from the truth.

      Hear this all the time!!!! Hot is hot! It being dry doesn make it any better!

      I beg to differ on this. I moved to NV from S Georgia. In GA is would be 105 with 99% humidity. That is infinitely worse that 115 and 15% humidity. At least in the dry heat if you step into the shade it feels cooler...even if it is 115 outside. :tongue:
