[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, it's National Airport to Natives. Not "Reagan."[/quote]

We moved here 32 years ago and we call it "National."  Have we graduated to "native" status?[/quote]

I don't think anyone can "graduate" to native status? Weird question. I've been in DC a long time but I will ALWAYS be a native New Yorker. Always. I wouldn't view DC native status as an accomplishment though, they're #2 as the most insecure in comparison to NYC and love to pick a fight (Boston #1) no matter how much I kiss ass about how I love and choose the city.

I'm sure you will ALWAYS be a native New Yorker and I'm sure you will ALWAYS be sure to let us know. Thanks.[/quote]

Everyone is a New Yorker once they start paying rent.

A group of friends once chartered a boat in a fabulous destination and the captain asked where everyone was from. When Suzy said she was from NY, a legit native born New Yorker said, “WTF, Suzy? You’ve lived in nyc for like 2 years and now you are a New Yorker?” Suzy was embarrassed, so a friend quickly jumped in and said, “STFU, Mary! You might have been born and raised in nyc, but your parents shipped you off to Chaute for your formative years. You’re more of a New England a$$hat than a real hardscrabble New Yorker. I mean, you learned to drive in the suburbs.”

Anyway, New Yorkers win the prize for being the most fixated on native status…and they use definitions that are convenient. [/quote]

At least New Yorkers live somewhere cool, and have something to actually brag about. DC area people seem to think that everyone strives to live and die here.  Shoot me first. [/quote]

And you are from no where town USA that you left family and friends behind for something bigger and better?[/quote]
