The area I live in has a LOT of people from the UK, either transplants or work abroad. I have gotten fairly good at understanding British English as a result lol.

Guilty. I picked it up from my sister a few years ago.

I'm guilty of saying 'Just sayin'..." a lot..

Murphy's Law states that the person who talks the most about how much they "can't stand drama" is most liikely the main cause of all drama that occurs.

YES.

Hahaha I did too, then turned red, then thought someone was messing with me. It was a British guy who enjoyed that particular trick when asking Americans for a cigarette.

The "cheap" store near my house is $6.50. The "regular" stores are ~$7.

One of the posters in Chicago told me she's paying $9+/pack. I'll be damned...

Ok, so I could have it worse...(*shudder*)


I keep saying, "When they reach $_____ I'll quit." But seriously, if I have to pay $9, I really will.

NYC is $12+ I know people who came across the river just to buy cigarettes.

I wonder if President Obama buys cigarettes when he visits Chicago or if he stocks up before he leaves D.C....

Random thought. ;)

Yea, my alma mater's city did a $1 increase (to help fund the Cowboy's stadium) and I swore on a stack of bibles that I'd be quitting the minute that increase went into effect. We see how that turned out. But...

...$12 is incentive to quit. That would be the point when Nicorette and I become close friends.

Those prices would scare my wallet SHUT!

Usually they're just under/over $4 in MI. There are always some $3 ones, though, when they come out with something "new."

I guess I should say something that is on topic. lol

I don't like when people say "what up doe?"

I still have NO IDEA how to respond to that.
