GTKY/BuzzFeed

Because it is slow here--and this board needs a distraction.  Plus, it's always good to get to know you gals better :)


Where are you actually from?

    BuzzFeed got it right (well midwest):
    You got: The Plains

    You’re a corn-fed, all-American, freedom-loving guy or gal, right? Straight out of the heartland, you’re friendly and hardworking, but also know how to have a good time. While you may not have the flash of the coasts, you are reliable and know how to throw down with the best of them.

  • Texan here!

     

    You got: The South

    Whether you are a charming gentleman or a cheerful belle, you are a Southerner to the core. Sweet tea, football, and hot summer nights are what you LIVE for. You aren’t afraid to kick back, relax, and take things slow, because you know life isn’t a race; it’s meant to be savored

     

     

    In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!

  • Pretty close.  I'm more rural Midwest, but this describes me pretty well.

    You got: The Great Lakes

    If you can survive a Midwest winter — especially with lake-effect weather — you can survive ANYTHING. Yeah, you know how to bust your ass and be a survivor, but you also like having a beer and spending your summer at your favorite lake. Whether it’s cheering on your favorite football or basketball team and enjoying a good tailgate, you know how to have a good time. At the end of the day, isn’t that what matters?

  • Wrong! I've never even been to the Rocky Mountains.

  • I got Pacific Northwest. Which would be most accurate for where I grew up (In southern Alberta, Canada). But I currently live in upstate NY (although I did select Yankees for the baseball team I hate- we're a Mets family)

  • PNW way to go Buzzfeed! Love my coffee and rain.

    3 years. 5 losses.

  • Apparently I should live on the opposite side of the country. Lol :)


    You got: The Mid-Atlantic

    You’re rough, tough, and love playing the underdog. You love sports, winning, and competition in general (that’s what happens when you live in or close to a city), but also know how to kick back and enjoy a day at the beach. But most of all, what matters to you is family.

  • You got: The Pacific Northwest

    Yeah, there’s rain, but there is so much more. Seafood, coffee, and oh yeah, just about the coolest people in the world. Let me guess, you’re wearing flannel right now, correct? Enjoy your evergreen climate, put on your raincoat, and continue being the alt-rock superstar that you are!


    hhmm, I live in NJ

  • Not even close... I got Pacific Northwest. I live in MA

  • I got the plains and I live in Pennsylvania. For what it's worth, I grew up in a rather rural, backwoods country town where people drove their tractors to school so maybe that is more like the plains....
  • Also got the Rocky Mountains. Also wrong.

    I'm from California originally and living in the Midwest now.

  • Erm...so very wrong. I live in PA and spent the first 11 years of my life in DE. Buzzfeed, you lose!

    You got: The Rocky Mountains

    Why aren’t you enjoying the great outdoors right now? Whether it is just your backyard or maybe even one of the national parks, you make the most of living in one of the most beautiful areas in the country. You’re strong, outgoing, and not afraid of a little challenge — always looking for that Rocky Mountain high.

  • I am from Texas and I got the Southwest.

    You got: The Southwest

    GET IN THE POOL. When you’re as hot as you are — both literally AND figuratively — you need to know how to cool off. Whether it’s with a marg, a beer, or some agua fresca, you know how to chill out when it heats up. Life is good in the Southwest, and you should be living it.
