This thread is mostly to satisfy my curiosity about you bastards. I notice we have a lot of well-traveled heathens posting, and think maybe we can talk about that. Pull up an ottoman and grab a cuppa by the fire.
Where have you lived? And feel free to provide any details you want.
I'll start:
- Altus, Oklahoma
(Born there, parents moved when I was 6 weeks old)
- Riverside, CA
- Big Bear Lake, CA
- Apple Valley, CA
- Fallbrook, CA
- Long Beach, CA
- Benbrook, TX
- Ft. Worth
- Dallas
- Boulder, CO
(Filthy land of hippie fucking scum. Nuke it.)

- Somewhere in Ohio
Didn't stay there too long and fucked if I can remember what I ate for breakfast let alone what the town was named
- West Grove, PA
Lots of trees, hills, and Amish folk. Also being near Philly has the perk of delicious cheesesteaks.
- Champaign, IL
Too fucking flat, cold, and everyone here fights all the damn time about the Cubs and the White Sox when really, baseball is just fucking stupid. Watching them all cry when they lost the Super Bowl was great though. Go Eagles.
Also spent a month and a half in Montreal, Quebec for work. That was probably the best month and a half of my life, though I don't remember half of it.

and now Ipswich, SD which has 900 people and is boring and such. But it's South Dakota so I'm not really surprised.
Nice. I am about to graduate from there (here?) in about 4 weeks, then head up to Chicago.
How the fuck did you end up in the middle of Illinois after spending so much time in Asia? My only guess is Peoria but you would have been pretty young at the time...
My little brother was born there. Must've been 1986-87? I don't really remember it. you weren't even born yet, were you
You cut me deep DP/WaM.
Haha, TFS is like 7 or something.

My brother's been there since 1997, but he's a douchebag and chooses to live places where you can be a douchebag.
