Narnia.

Narnia? Someone needs to come out of the closet!

I'm originally from San Diego, CA - born and raised.

Now, I'm living in Pasadena, CA (Los Angeles Area).

When I see Fern, I plan to find out what set(s) he claims!

Austin, Texas! I've lived here my whole life!

No I don't have a Texas accent.

I'm from Puerto Rico, but we moved to the US. I lived in PR for eleven years and never even knew racism existed until we moved to the States. We got scared into the corner (Florida) and we've lived there ever since. :)

Me too! Except for the brief stints in Dallas and Wichita Falls. And yes you do - but only when you say "bad." ^.^ I used to not have an accent, but I'm developing one.

Grew up in the Bay (peninsula!).

Moved to the North Coast.

Currently living on the Central Coast…

Rah to the Central Coast, I live in Seaside now!

Seattle.

I don't think, in my entire forum posting history (not that there's much, that is :) ), I've ever seen anyone mention that they're from Washington.

…I'm not alone here, am I? ._.

You most certainly are not.

I lived in Minnesota most of my life, but then decided that Minnesota is mind-numbingly boring and moved to Washington for college instead. One of the greatest choices I ever made.

I generally only have one when I'm doing an impression of a Texan (or a Southerner).

As a 2nd generation Austinite myself, I have the right to do that, so nyah! lol!

Also, if I'm talking to someone that has a real thick Texan accent, I might lapse into one (temporarily).

We, the people of Austin, should get together and have coffee or something.

YES! Party it up! We need to make all the other DDers jealous that we live here. I mean, it IS one of the best places to live EVAR!

Alas, I would disagree as it isn't hot enough for me there :P

Winnipeg, Manitoba is more my kind of heat.

Well, I just moved in with my parents. So, I guess I'm no longer a West Virginian. I'm a west Virginian. Eh. I'm moving the opposite direction that I want to be. Born and raised in West Virginia, but I feel like a New Englander. Someone take me north! I'm going to die out here in the tobacco fields!

Hey, that's not fair… :(
You guys just mentioning your state or city while the rest of us non U.S. people list our countries.


Well I don't know where Ohio, Nevada, Nebraska, Wyoming or all the rest of it is… Except they all feature in various old cowboy movies :)

You're welcome to list cities and provinces/territories too. ^_^ Perhaps it is you being unfair for assuming Americans don't know any geography. (Okay, so most of us don't. I could look it up.) Somehow, I feel like saying "Virginia, USA" would insult people's intelligence.

I wouldn't list a city anyway. I recently moved from the biggest city in West Virginia. I guarantee that most Americans haven't heard of it. (Or hadn't until they released a movie set there a year or so ago. :-P ) Actually, my dad met a postal worker in Tennessee who didn't know West Virginia was a state.

Heh, fair enough, Ozone. I'm from the United States! As a bit of trivia, I read that when Americans go overseas, and someone asks where they're from, they say "from America" or "from the US" or something. Unless they're from Texas. Then the majority forego the country completely and just say "Texas." ^.^

Just for you Ozone:http://www.mapsofworld.com/usa/usa-maps/world-map-usa-political-enlarge-view.gif

But please don't think I've missed the point entirely. I would actually like to here more details than, "Australia." It's a big-ass place.

And yes Texans do say Texas. Texas is not a true part of the US. I like to think of Texas the same way I think of Puerto Rico, it's American, but not quite part of the union.

On a related note, have you noticed that folks from the USA refer to themselves and their production as "American," claiming the entirety of two continents. Wouldn't United Statesian be better?

Probably - but that's too many syllables for most of us knuckle-draggers.

lol!
