Since Canadia has a thread, we need one too.

'Murica.


I'm from the great Commonwealth of Kentucky.

We residents of Commonwealths are a superior breed of citizen to all them lousy state-livers.

It is a shame, though, how far we've shifted from some of the original laws of William Penn himself!

Those on forum, refer to here, those not refer the to forum and soon after here. At least I suggest that.

In my (admittedly, very limited and northern) experience, social conservatives, as a group, have a greater tendency to dislike sci-fi, fantasy, and geekdom in general. And it's hardly succumbing to stereotypes to note that the deep south tends to be much more socially conservative than the rest of the nation...

Don't know that we do. Just none who have posted in this thread so far—and given that less than 2 dozen total people have posted here, this thread can't be seen as an even remotely representative sample—yet. :)

I'm just picking up on this thread (ventured into here while bored)... I had to laugh, though, because I was raised in Texas. Most of my family is in Texas as well.

Me, though, I'm in NJ now, but am technically "from" Albany, NY, even though I can't remember it.

Except I'm part Irish, and live in rural NJ close to the border with PA. No accent from either place, either! It's kinda like winning the lottery.

I do hate NJ tho. Damn guidos.
