[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's like I'm a weirdo if I tell people "I'm a New Yorker" if I am not even from New York. Weird!!! Does not matter how many parkways or museums or restaurants I know. I'd be an imposter[/quote] New Yorkers aren't as possessive of NY as Washingtonians. If you live in the City for three decades you definitely call yourself a New Yorker. It's a state of mind as much as place of residence. -New Yorker [/quote] The irony, of course, is that the multiple generation Washingtonians ("my grandparents and great grandparents are buried here!") as descendants of settlers on Indigenous land. Not that they would ever think about that, despite their "liberal" bona fides.[/quote] I guess that depends on your definition of “settlers”. In my case — 3rd Gen here — probably not. I do think about that though, among other things. [/quote]
