I'm from Oregon. And not from Portland.
Once when I was donating blood here in Vegas, I had the lady look at my driver's license and say, "Oregon huh? Is it true they have great weed?"
Um, I wouldn't know?
We know if you're not from Oregon when you can't pronounce it correctly.
So true!! And I can almost always spot a non-native on the way they pronounce Eugene (no, I'm not from Eugene).0 -
I'm from Louisiana. No, I don't know any swamp people. No, I never lived by the swamp. No, I don't have a pet alligator. No, I've never hunted an alligator. :P0

you live in Oregon wtf is out there? Lewis & Clark right oregon trail......
Lol! Yes, for starters! Btw...I looked at your profile!0 -
I am from New Orleans and apparantly, everybody thinks we talk weird. We might say some things a little weird or make up our own words for things, but not everybody talks like that! In fact, only a small percentage of the population here does (aka Swamp People). IT IS NOT "Nawlins". It is New Orleans. No, I don't live in a swamp. No, not all of us are fat. Only tourists wear Mardi Gras beads outside of Mardi Gras season. No we don't have a parade for everything. Locals treat Mardi Gras like a family event and it's the stupid tourists that come and ruin it with all the drinking, flashing, and just being plain obnoxious. I do not add tabasco, tony cachere's, or salt to all of my food. I'm tired of hearing about Katrina and the devestation and aftermath. Should I go on? I love my city, but I can't stand all the misconceptions and portrayals out there by the media, movies, and tv shows.0

I actually just had to de-friend a long time friend (high school buddy of my hubby's) the other day because he basically said that because hubby and I live in Chicago we are SUPPORTING gun violence. WTF????? :noway:

Person:I was in Chicago...It really is windy.
me : well its called the windy city because of the politicians. Its not actually more windy than any other city.
Person: Really? Because it was really windy
me: ...pulls out gun0 -

Also, ANYTHING that fizzes is "coke". At least where I come from in Texas!
In Texas:
"What drinks do you have?"
"Coke, tea, water."
"Great. I'll have a Dr. Pepper."
In other states:
"Do you want a coke?"
"Yes, what kind?"
"....."0
