Well, I'm sure a lot of us have seen funny stuff that sums up the region they live in and as such thought it might be cool to have us share the quirkyness.
Please do not feel compelled to mention specifics of where you're from and even in general, only do so if you're comfortable to (stay web safe). Anyway, I'm from the border of Suffolk and Norfolk (counties) in a region called East Anglia in the UK. Essentially it's often mocked as one of the country bumpkin areas and predominantly for *cough* inbreeding. Makes for some funny self mockery ![]() Girl from the fens Our really dodgy accent (Radio call in, try to listen through, it gets funnier) East Anglian Boy (parody of Kanye West 'American Boy')

Well, I just saw an old cowboy, tall, rangy man wearing a great big Stetson, leading a horse along Main Street, right alongside all the cars and traffic. Yep, I'm in a farm-town in northern California.

Yes! And Rachel Rachel is surprisingly still pretty accurate to the region. I didn't like that movie - when I start hating my location I think of it, hahaha. But mostly I don't mind the location, the weather is not bad usually. I just hate that there are so few buildings with elevators in these parts because I need to move.

Ha-ha, everyplace kind of sucks when you feel like being someplace else though. It looks very pretty there. I just wish I had a car.

I looked it up on Maps. Looks pretty rural where you live, am I correct?

It is pretty, but if you must come here...don't come in Winter or Summer. Winters are cold and snowy (though a lot less snow than what you guys get), and summers are hot, humid, miserable...But Spring and Fall are nice! lol

Summers are worse than Chicago's...winters are A LOT milder than Chicago's. You been to St. Louis?

I think I drove through a couple of times when I was much younger. The Chicago winters are horrible!

I've only ever been in Chicago in the Spring, but from what I see on the news, Chicago winters are ridiculous! Makes St. Louis look like a tropical beach! lol
