Not only that, but it forgets the best part, the west. But he's from Texas, you can only expect so much... [/pointless regional rivalry]

I am from Northern California, and yes-there is a profound difference. For instance, we rule.

I do believe this might just be weighted towards 'Other'....

Welcome to an international forum. ;)

Where's the Northwest, Texan?

Shouldn't you add the Northwest?

I'm from the western part of Massachusetts myself, so New England. Go Red Sox!

I'm from Finland. It's in northern Europe if you didn't know.

Where's the Northwest, Texan?

What? California's Canada, Idaho (which sucks because Maddox says so), feh! Midwest FTW! :P

The Netherlands, the cold & wet ones.

I'm from the city that has the tallest rollercoaster in the world. Sandusky, Ohio, The United States of America. Btw the roller coaster rocks!!!

Swilatia

You could say I'm in the mid-west. The island I'm on is quite narrow though, so I could just say 'mid'.

Let's see.... the WEST.

NW, just the West... everywhere I've spent my entire life living. :rolleyes:

I'm from Roe Dyelin.

What? California's Canada, Idaho (which sucks because Maddox says so), feh! Midwest FTW! :P

For there to be a midwest, there must be a north west, west west, south west, and east west. West, what a funny word.

I'm in a little town called La Place! Basically, it's the smack dead center point between New Orleans & Baton Rouge! And if you ever find yourself travelling south on I-55, you'll inevitably land in La Place cuz' that's where the interstate (I-55) ends!

I am from mt.vernon Illinois :)

Mid-Atlantic. I chose Northeast because its the closest to where I am, and Pennsylvania definately isn't New England.

Lillington, North Carolina, Greatest town in the world, in the greatest county(Harnett), in greatest place in world the South... no offense to anyone else

Our rollercoaster was in The Lost Boyshttp://www.webhostingtalk.com/images/smilies/pimp.gif
Rollercoasters do rock. (ours is also the oldest something, but I can never remember what...)

Depending on how you look at it, I'm either from nowhere in particular, or kind of all over. Born in Sacramento (California). Moved to Kenya when I was six months old. Moved to Sierra Leone when I was three. Moved to Malaysia when I was five. Moved to Botswana when I was nine. Moved to Italy when I was twelve. Moved to Belgium when I was thirteen. Moved back to California for college when I was seventeen, at which point my parents moved to Zambia, so that's where I spent my summers for the first two years of uni. My parents moved back to the U.S. right before I started my third year of college, this time to D.C. - so that's where I spent the summer before my fourth year. I graduated last June, and I now live (oddly enough) in Sacramento, where I was born.

I am from the USSR, comrade. :cool:

Where are all ya'll from? I myself am from Texas. And yes. I do have a THICK accent. :)

Texas, baby. Third Coast! H-Town.

I'm from where m=Monkeypimp is from. I feel priviliged and like an asshole at the same time. :D

China, a great country.
I am surprised that you could get through all the goveremnt firewalls :p

I'm from the state of Pennsylvania in the U.S. but I've always wanted to live in Europe...Finland or The Netherlands would be nice...

Where are all ya'll from? I myself am from Texas. And yes. I do have a THICK accent. :)
I'm from Texas too, although it already says it in my location. I don't have that thick an accent but people from other places would probably notice it.

Now, see ... you really are the next Mrs. Keruvalia. You're a sister, a Texan, and got country grammar. Woo! Holla!

What happened to the last Mrs Keruvalia?

There've been three. The 2nd one and I ate the first for her sweet, sweet essence. The third ... well ... that's just best left unsaid.

The third ... well ... that's just best left unsaid.
Yeah, a bit past the 'best before' date, eh? Happened to me once, too.

The third you threw up for her oily discharge?

Oh no. I live in Rio Grande do Sul. I just hope that you are not one of those idiots with Aregntine plates that make the BR101 one of the most dangerous roads in the world.

Oh and my location says which country I am in, indirectly.

Where are all ya'll from? I myself am from Texas. And yes. I do have a THICK accent. :)

Rock on. Same!!!

I'm from where m=Monkeypimp is from. I feel priviliged and like an asshole at the same time. :D

Is that what my reputation has come to?

With the name Kiwi-Kiwi and the staus Cybersheep farmer, not much is left in doubt. Lamb!

See my location to the left. It tells all.

I want to visit your place. Actually, I want to emigrate there. Can I put you down as a "friend or relative" living in NZ so I can up my points?

I'm sick of the US.

She can take her NZ mutton elsewhere. I want cherry, damn it.

I thought Kiwi-kiwi's whole deal was that she wasn't from NZ?

No, but 2 other posters implied as much.


Down boy.

Canada

Only 6 Canadians on this poll so far... come on guys...

Melbourne.

Ditto.

Cherry? :)

Sure, but you'll have to go searching for it. The Cherry Pie is a very elusive pastry.

Oh, is it now? I'm sure I can lure it out with a banana split.

Make sure it has plenty of whipped cream. If anything can attract a wild Pie, it's whipped cream.

Texas, baby. Third Coast! H-Town.

I'm also currently in H-Town, though I'm from Port Aransas.

And if any of you wanna hear how I sound, check the voice thread. I might as well be from Canada. :p

Im from Other...its pretty cool...I like the surroundings. Kinda white with a splash of blackness. Its cool Other is a nice place. neighbors aint to bad either. A bit small though.

Whipped cream does not come out for anyone. Wild pie may need to assist. The freshly baked aroma and warm, crumbly texture should do the trick.

Ah, but in Pie, they grow whipped cream on cream-sheep. As well as shaving cream. It's a bad thing when they get flocks mixed up.

Where the hell is the most important option, the motherfucking west coast, on your poll? California, one of the only four "great" states.

You are confused, man. China does not launch( i dont certain this word is accurate or not) firewall on such website. Only some Falun Gong, anti-commuist and reactionary sites are banned.

I"m from colorado, but I'm living in minnesota.

I'm born and raised here in the Northeast (CT specifically). Eventually, I'd like to move to a state that's warm in the winter (I really hate New England winters).

Seriously too bad. I'm sorry for all of you (grew up in Folsom).

yeah, ameri-centric and euro-centric polls can be a bitch sometimes.

Especially when it doesn't say "not from the USA" but "now from the USA"

:confused: I have to become from the USA to vote? Arrrrgh.

Somewhere in northern EU, I'll let you people guess where from.

its really interesting reading that wiki article... this place has more history than i thought!


It was the original point of departure for the Pilgrim Fathers aboard the Mayflower. A memorial can be found on Town Quay. Since that time it has been the last port of call for literally millions of emigrants who left the Old World to start a new life in the USA, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and other parts of the world.

It was sacked in 1338 by the French, including the pirate Grimaldi, who used the plunder to help found the principality of Monaco. After this attack, the city walls were built, some of which remain as ruins today. The city walls include God's House Tower, built in 1417, the first purpose-built artillery fortification in England.

The Viking King Canute the Great is supposed to have defeated the Anglo-Saxon King Ethelred the Unready here in 1014 and his fabled attempt to "command" the tide to halt may have taken place in Southampton.

Although Stone Age settlements are known to have existed in the area, the first permanent settlement was established by the Romans. Known as Clausentum, it was an important trading port

The Second World War hit Southampton particularly hard, partly because of its strategic importance as the major industrial area on the South Coast and partly because of the city's links to the Supermarine Spitfire fighter aircraft, which was invented and manufactured in Southampton. Pockets of Georgian architecture remain, but much of the city was levelled. (the memorial by the Bargate, part of the old city walls, states that over 25,000 civilians lost their lives in the bombing of the city)

In common with most of the luxury liners of the time, the RMS Titanic sailed from here

Southampton is home to the world's oldest surviving bowling green

the Office of National Statistics have referrred to it as the Southampton Urban Area with a population of around 442,969 (2001 census)

The King Edward VI Grammar School, now a selective Independent Co-educational secondary school, was founded in the city in 1553 by William Capon. (my school!)

Southampton has England's second-longest stretch of surviving Medieval wall, the longest being in York

The city is home to the University of Southampton, Southampton Solent University and West Quay shopping centre, which was the biggest city-centre shopping mall in Europe when it was opened

It is also the headquarters of Ordnance Survey, the UK's national mapping agency.

Southampton is graced with many green spaces and parks. The largest of these is Southampton Common, parts of which are used to host the annual summer festival (designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest, the common includes 326 acres of woodland, parkland, rough grassland, ponds, wetlands, nature trails, a paddling pool, a children's play area, a model yachting pond, and a fishing lake)

The Liberal Democrats control the City Council.

According to the Sunday Times newspaper league table, Southampton University is perennially in the top ten for research (its primary focus), and has close links with MIT in the United States. Southampton is probably best known as an engineering, science and social science university. In the most recent RAE assessment (2001), it has the only engineering faculty in the country to receive the highest rating (5*) across all disciplines. According to the Times Higher Educational Supplement, Southampton has the second largest research income among British universities for the physical sciences and mathematics, and the third largest research income for engineering and technology.

Anglo-Saxon King Ethelred the Unready
Well, with a name like that he was just asking for it...

I like it here. So nice and warm, plus with SxSW last week... I'm NE Austin, where're you?
Yeah, this is a cool place to live. I live in west Austin currently. It is nice and warm most of the time although lately it's been a little chilly. Hopefully we'll have some normal weather soon.

Austin, eh? A friend of mine from Port Aransas lives there and works at a gym. I'm thinking about going to UT when I graduate (though I could pretty much go anywhere in the country).

Actually, a few people I know live in Austin... Heh, it sounds better every day.

Well, with a name like that he was just asking for it...
:D

they all had such great names back then. like before the normans rewrote history, Willaim The Conqueror was called William The Bastard :p

I thought that more likely. I just wanted to have a chance to write Rivadabia.
It's Rivadavia. I'm Argentinian and porteño too. :D

Dear OP: There's a world beyond USA and Canada. Just thought you should know. Remember that next time.

:D

Makes me think of an interesting question, what would our 'the' names be?

Like Pure Metal the Hesher.

Or Cannot think of a name the ... oh crap...

Where are all ya'll from? I myself am from Texas. And yes. I do have a THICK accent. :)
I'm from Texas too, though I barely have any accent. I do say "y'all" though.
We moved around a lot when I was a kid, but other than a stint in California, it was all in the south.

Hehz Im from Singapore. Some stupid little island in south east asia that has summer all year long.

Cannot Think Of A Name the guy who can't think of names (or maybe CTOAN the master of Veronica the beloved ;))

i think this almost warrants a thread of its own!

Yeah, I go down to the coast quite a bit. I know Port Aransas and Houston pretty well.

I'm from Maryland, which I consider to be in the Mid-Atlantic, along with Delaware, Pennsylvania, south Jersey, and Northern Virginia. I think most Marylanders agree that it's in the Mid-Atlantic.

Seriously too bad. I'm sorry for all of you (grew up in Folsom).

Haha, well I don't plan on staying here, it's too small for my taste. And I think I would have died of boredom if I'd grown up in Folsom. ;)

Northeast, Southeast etc. where?

I assume it's in the UK, as this is a British site.

I would say Northern Ireland is roughly mid-west in the UK.

Anyway, I live in Belfast.
