[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because our society places way too much value on being from urban, coastal cities, judges "flyover country", and people want to feel special, valued, important.  They dont want to apart of the "lower class" that the media so abhors.  So they fudge the numbers and say whatever city they've lived in, for however brief a time, that will give them the nod of respect they crave.  Even if it's not honest, even if they know it's not true.  It's like everyone out there, wanting people to like them, to respect them, to know them as they want to be known.[/quote]

Everyone wants to be accepted [/quote]

NP here.  But the way to be accepted is to not be a liar.  I have a good idea where people are from, and I have a good idea when people are lying.  Own your sh&t and get some therapy if you are so embarrassed by what shaped you, because that is seriously effed up.

For instance, DCUM loves to hate on certain areas, if you have been reading long enough, you know this by now.  So what?  I care what DCUM thinks? C'mon.

If you are from a "rich" area, you will be judged, if you are from a "poor" area, you will be judged - that is not on you, that is on the person doing the judging. I refuse to take on their agenda, let them be ignorant, it's not on me. If you travel or have lived enough places, you get a good handle on where people are from, just by talking to them. [/quote]
