Detroit has to be a Doberman. Woof Woof.
Chicago a Bulldog ( Schurz H.S. ) ( also resembles most city workers )
Florida is a Tortoise ( the Comcast Slowskies )
L.A. a pack of Wolves.
Oregon = Ducks ( too easy )
San Fransisco a Unicorn
San Diego a Coyote
New York a rat ( actually a compliment, very resilient )
( not to mention the obvious rat race )
Couldn't decide on the Eagle, so I guess that goes to all of us.
Chicago is a bulldog, I agree. St. Louis I like to think of as an eagle because of Anheuser Busch...when you drive along Interstate 64 through the heart of St. Louis, you see a big sign with a computer-animated eagle flapping its wings. New York would have to be an elephant, D.C. maybe also an eagle, I honestly don't know. This is a really silly thread.
Wow you people from Chicago are jerks, Omaha is in no way slow right now, maybe you should go and see. Our downtown is vibrant and expanding our suburbs are expanding and, our economy is so powerful . We have 5 fortune 500 companies in our metro which population is 830,000. Chicago has over 9.6 million and has 27 in its metro. Ratio wise, Omaha's is larger and our economy is most likely stronger than when Chicago was our size. So if you were to base
Omaha off its economic strength, It would be at least a greyhound.
Don't get too caught up in Omaha getting called a sloth. Sid in Ice Age was a sloth and he is a cool guy.
Also, all the "waste" that comes from these animals ends up in D.C. Nothing against the city, just a political joke.
Actually, we all just squirrels going after our nut, whatever nut that may be.
L. A. would be a Stallion, jet black. NY would be an a s s! (No offense) You know, not moving or lifting a hand for anyone, and chronically into itself
Actually, I think the real "jerks" are the ones who like to call other people names. Someone didnt like Omaha, big deal, live with it. You dont like Chicagoans (as dozens of your posts have pointed out), I could care less. Im not gonna lose any sleep over the fact that someone from Omaha doesnt like me. And personally, I found his description of Omaha to be quite funny, if entirely untrue.

For the record, I have noticed that it is often times the Chicagoans who initially go on the offensive by making callous remarks about various other cities, especially Indianapolis, St. Louis, and Omaha, and then when residents of these cities rise to the call to defend their turf from what they feel is unjust criticism, they are labeled as "Chicago-bashers." Why? Do folks in Chicago expect the luxury of being able to thumb their noses at other cities without garnering any backlash. When someone bashes Scranton into the ground I dish the dirt right back at them. When someone from Chicago says something unflattering and unpleasant about another Midwest city, shouldn't you expect an in-kind response?
