ok, All Texans have a horse/pony.

All southerners sleep with their cousins (note: I'm pretty much from the south)

When I was a little girl in Poland, we all had ponies. My sister had pony, my cousin had pony. So, what's wrong with that?

Apu - you're either southern or not. you can't be 'pretty much' from the south. unless you're from pennsylvania. because although PA is north of the MDL, it's pretty miuch from the south.

people that "breakdance" are old school

p2an - Who'd figure an immigrant would have a pony?

Actually mighty, I think PA would be described mostly north east. Now DE is 'pretty much' the south.

All people with a southern accent and/or an appreciation for country music are legally retarded.

Q: How do you get from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia?

A: Through Alabama

I am from the South. My parents are, indeed, cousins. And in that way that only Southerners can manage, my parents are cousins more than once.

But I've personally not slept with any of my cousins. Who are also my cousins more than once.

I am also a crazy redhead. That fact notwithstanding, everything I've stated above is true.

my wife (who is from PA) would be appalled at even the thought of someone considering her state being in the south... (i'm from the south and she like to make fun of me =) )



keeping with the stereotypes...

all architects either design residential or commercial architecture.

Phil - I respectfully disagree. Philadelphia, sure, and maybe even the Delaware Water Gap are mostly NE, but the rest of pennsyltucky is 'pretty much the south.'

mental relapse.. all architects design either residential or commercial architecture..

ether - all in good fun, but of course she likes to think she's not from the south. who wouldn't?!?

don't get me wrong though. i love the south.

don't all southern people love boiled peanuts? i love me some boiled peanuts.

and bacon. gobs and gobs of bacon.

i hate boiled peanuts!

I have been to much of Pennsylvania, and despite the fact that they have a place named Intercourse where people drive around in horse buggies, I would say that there is nothing southern about the state. And I am from Kentucky, so I know. I quite like PA actually, with its mix of blue-collar grittiness and urbanity (there was my stereotype).

p2an, I thought you were a guy?

lb, where exactly ARE you from then? I didn't know that the South factored in to your map anywhere.....

I don't know that I can contribute a new stereotype to this discussion just yet.....still thinking.....

all northerners are rude and without manners

Don't forget BBQ! I say "pretty much" southern, because i was partially raised in a foreign country partially in ATL, which was also very far south of the MDL.

Trust Me, I'm From Jersey.

I've never had boiled peanuts, unless you count the ones people put in green beans some times, does that count?

And just from experience, I would say that northerners as a whole are less friendly than southeners as a whole. Maybe we just look around and smile more, but it seems friendlier.

all southern families have at least one guy named Bubba.

ha ha, that reminds me, my husband went to school with a kid named Robert Bobby John Reeses Blair. Say it outloud, it's fun. It wasn't the south either.

Isn't robert and bobby a bit redundant?

sure SH, southerners are friendlier, till' they bust out the chainsaws!!!

SH, yes, that's part of what's so funny. And they call him by all 5 names when they refer to him. Example that never actually occured as far as I know and is made up for explanation purposes: "Who is going to the game?" "Uh, Mike, Joe, Jason, Robert Bobby John Reeses Blair, Cindy, and Mary Beth..."

I can't contain my laughter right now.

This is the best I can do...
All Germans eat sauerkraut and wear lederhosen

All Ukranians are stubborn, crazy and members of the mafia.

you can trust a guy from New Jersey

My family goes long and deep in North Carolina, DubK, and though I was born in New Haven CN I would never claim myself as a Yankee.

Lest we stray of to non-architecture topics, the most important stereotype is that all architects wear black.

Jews are cheap.

and white people are greedy

when i first arrived to california in 1975, people used to ask me if we lived in tents and raised camels... i wish we were and i didn't know how to describe the environment i grew up to somebody from sacramento.





i didn't know where or which small district to start to explain how concrete ate all the donkeys long ago.

wow, thats sad.....

holy shit...is that a space rocket in that residential district?

It would be much cooler if you lived in a tent and had a camel.

actually i got a great discount when i bought mine.

wow, that's the most racist thing i've heard today, but damn its funny.

it's so funny in fact, you must be jewish

steer it back folks... focus...

WonderK, I think p2an was referring to a Seinfeld episode, hence my reply. If he wasn't referring to Seinfeld, I might sound like a complete ass.

DE is 'actually' the south.

Ok, I'll be the one to play the race card...

...all black people are great at sports, are good dancers, like rap and can't conjugate verbs...

...black women are loud, obnoxious and pushy...

...that Indians are drunk and lazy...

For the record, I can't play sports, I can't dance, and I try to speak correct English.

I am not loud, obnoxious or pushy-I am the exact opposite-and it amazes people.

I absolutely hate the taste of alcohol, and I have had a job for as long as i can remember...

Oh, I forgot-I prefer German dub techno over rap....

But are you eating fried chicken and drinking grape soda while typing that?

New Yorkers are all rude, pushy, obnoxious, and are prone to saying things like "bada-bing" and "fugettaboudit" for no apparent reason. I have to step over dead bodies to get to my apartment, and there have been twelve shootings outside my office within the past month.

Having grown up in the midwest, I have had absolutely no exposure to "culture", which is apparently opera and seafood.

Strwabeary - we also eat a lot of meat, potatoes and corn too.

Oh and all Cincinnatians LOVE Skyline and the Bengals.

all day labor is cheap

damn Gin, you must work on the same block as me

white people cant dance......

lets battle and i'll prove you wrong

No shit, phuyaka. This neighborhood has gone straight to hell ever since those damn ___________ moved in.
