Hey, I bought my car in Edmond! I work for Enterprise, and we have our group's administration office there as well as a car sale lot. I got such a good deal on my car cause I bought it last November, but the only place I could get it from was Edmond! But, it wasn't a bad drive.
Well, I grew up about 45 minutes south of St. Louis, where people were just considered strange and uncouth. We weren't really claimed by St. Louisans, and I had several people from suburbs assume that I grew up on a farm, raised pigs, etc. But people there are still just as obsessed about high schools as people from the city.
Then I moved to near the Iowa border, where everyone likes to make fun of Iowans and how they are all amish and no one has electricty. Now I live in Arkansas, and as one poster so eloquently put, enough said!
I guess I just think it's funny that Missourians make fun of Iowans and Arkansans for the same things that those states make fun of Missourians about. And I have friends in Wichita, and I can't even begin to tell you how many times I've had to defend Kansas! Oh well.
