Creighton forum talking UConn

[Scrutineer]

"Ooh, look at me, I'm UConnSwag11 and I know all about what people from different places are like!"

You're such an idiot!

So tell us how he's different than the many people here who routinely and repeatedly comment about how everyone in the South is a toothless rube or everyone in the Midwest is a back stabbing phony?

This multi-page geography discussion only proves Creighton is not the buzz generating rival some would have them be.

Space Ghost Coast to Coast was so good.

Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio are the midwest states. I would potentially put Western PA in that category.
Montana is Canada as far as I'm concerned.
Wyoming and Colorado are the Rockies.
Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, and most of the Dakotas are the Plains. The Fargo area I would consider the Midwest.
Missouri is meth country.
West Virginia is applachia, coal, and crack heads.
Kentucky is caves, coal, and crack heads.

The generalization of people from different regions being real nice, fake nice, kind, fake kind, tell it like it is, etc. has always been dumb.

For my money the two most obnoxious fanbases are ours and Syracuse - not even sure who I'd put as 3.

When I first read this my thought was “us obnoxious? No way”
After reading this thread that I thought was going to about what Creighton fans were saying about then realizing that it actually had nothing to do about Creighton’s fans I changed my mind. We are obnoxious and very weird.

This must be the first and only thread you read!

Typical of people with nothing of import going on in their lives so they live vicariously through something like a basketball team.
Have to admit there is some of that here as well.
A confident smile and nod says way more and disarms them as they try to discern what you just did.

When you write scripts for what other people are supposed to say or do according to you as you "discern their motivation" says volumes about your own ability as a playwright. That's pretty rarified air up there isn't it?

Disagree. People in the south and midwest might be nicer to your face but they will talk about you the moment you turn around. It's a fake niceness. There's more BS. In the NE there's no BS. I llived in Virgnia nad have family in Georgia, SC, and Louisiana. Down there all the time.

Every place is provincial, especially small towns and cities, no matter where you go.

Here's a story told for my benefit during lunch with the corporate staff of a large healthcare organization I was interviewing with in Maine some years ago.

An old "Mainer" was talking with his new neighbor (who'd moved to town ten years ago) and asked him how he and his family liked the area.
The young man said "great and the best part is my kids fit in so well I guess they're just like natives now, right?"
The old "Mainer" said "nope".
The young man was puzzled and asked "why wouldn't they be? They were born here".
To which the old "Mainer" replied, "just 'cause your cat has kittens in the oven you don't call 'em muffins do ya"?

I didn't bother because it all seemed repetitive. Sorry if I missed the punch line.

I don't get it.

Sure it is.

They all love Fleet Farm stores. It's a common bond of Midwesterners.

Here's the story on the difference between Fleet Farm and Farm and Fleet.
