For Northerners ONLY, Please. (racist, borders, elect, states)

[carolinajack]

A safe place for Northerners to talk privately about themselves and others without argument with outsiders. trolls, Southerners, Mid WEsterners, and Westerners.

I'm a Northerner. Representin' Da Electric City! WOOT WOOT! What shall we talk about? Pizza? Mmmmmm...me hungry!

[BudinAk]

I'm from Alaska...is that far enough North? Actually...I don't really care where anyone is from...I even married a gal from Florida (about as far away from Alaska as you can search for someone...and still be in the same country), and we get along just fine. Your personality and disposition is far more important to me, than where you are from...
Hmmm...pizza? GOOD! Believe it or not, Alaska has a fair share of pizza parlors.... There is even one in Barrow, Ak, at the far north end of the state...advertised, I believe, as the "farthest north pizza joint in the world..." (probably true) Yum!

What is considered a Northerner ¿

[jhlcomp]

I guess that means someone north of southern Virginia?? And west of ...oh, gosh, who cares.

But is there a question here .. somewhere Carolinajack?? :-)

I would say I am a person of the world - no borders - I live in south Florida but that's just geography.

I'm from and in Texas and this whole thing sounds racist to me .....

I find this thread rather rude and condensing for someone who claims he is a christian.

It only took one page for this one to get heated.

Good grief.

BTW, I'm from New York and I'm thankful that God has put me here.

I just thought that was necessary for this thread. Don't want to get in trouble!

Thanks for reading, friend.

It's just immature if you ask me.

[spike1611]

I think some folks are actually upset about this thread!

Good heavens, folks! Just take a breather! It's not "immature" or "condensing [sic]" for a Christian to want to talk about the north, with and among northerners! Yikes! There's some serious hostility here!

Would you go into a forum that talked about Playstation and brag about your XBOX scores or whatever? No. But yet it's automatically rude and immature to want to talk about the north within a northern caucus. Good grief.

I know what's immature, and it's not the OP's idea. I, frankly, do not recall anyone asking for your opinions, either. But maybe that's just my amnesia kicking in again. Hmm.

Again, I'm from New York and I'm thankful that God has put me here.

Yeah, I'm still going to be careful, though. I've gotta make sure I don't offend anyone here, you know.
