It excessively annoying if you're not from the area.

Ha ha! My college sweetheart is from STL, and after 5 years of dating him, I started asking that same question. I usually asked it as part of the "who do you know?" game--at my college, most of the STL kids came from a handful of schools.
He, on the other hand, was classist about it in that if people went to certain private (ie, non-Catholic) schools, or public schools in "certain" cities, he'd get all populist-snobby about it.
I found St. Louis to be one of the most provincial places I've ever visited, at least in that regard.
