Trailered Up

Kari posted this survey last week, and I've been meaning to take it again.  It's the Find Your Spot test, where you answer a series of questions and the site determines which cities you'd enjoy living in the most.  I haven't taken this survey in at least a year, and I don't remember what my original results were, so let's see what they are now...

St. Louis, MO
Cincinnati, OH
Seattle, WA
Norfolk, VA
Charlotte, NC
Oklahoma City, OK
El Paso, TX
Kansas City, MO
Evansville, IN
Springfield, MO
Indianapolis, IN
Louisville, KY
Phoenix, AZ
Chesapeake-Virginia Beach, VA
Tuscon, AZ
Forth Worth, TX
Nashville, TN
Bloomington, IN
Bellingham, WA
Columbia, MO
Detroit, MI
Toledo, OH
Orlando, FL
Omaha, NE

OMG WTF?!?1!  I suddenly feel so white bread.  I mean, Kentucky?  No Minneapolis, either, which is kinda weird.  Must be the ridiculous taxes here.  And what's with all the snowy states?  I specifically stated that I don't like cold winters.  Hrmph.  I smell a rat.

Oh, I see.  It's run by a guy who's both an attorney and a real estate broker.  (Snap.)

Speaking of white trash, I heard pretty much the funniest thing ever on Sunday night.  I was standing out on the patio of Azia with a few friends, one of which was Josh.  Josh is a chef at Cosmos, originally from Hawaii, and a super cool, super funny dude who uses surfer words like "super" and "dude" a lot.  If you've ever known anyone from Hawaii, you know the accent I'm talking about.

Anyway, we're standing outside the main door and a small group of girls walks out.  They're acting weird, looking in our direction.  Suddenly, one of my guy friends recognizes one of the girls.

Friend: "Ohmygod."
Josh: "What's up?"
Friend: "I used to have sex with that girl."
Josh: "Du-u-ude!  Are you serious?  That girl is trailered up!"

I wish my italics and exclamation points could do the accent justice.  Because to hear the way Josh talks, and to hear the absolutely genius phrase "trailered up" come out of his mouth... I just wish you all could've been there.

I think I'll go drop this quote on Overheard in Minneapolis.  Taylor tells me the site is doing very well.  16,000 hits between Saturday and Tuesday, with 3,000 unique IP addresses.  That's, like, way more than Rex gets.

I took it before, and again now. I still come up with Minneapolis as number one, and Cleveland as number two. Though, once I look at the average temps and dewpoints, Cleveland should clearly be number one.

Whah? Are you baiting me, McKinnis? I get 12K/day, you honky. Used to be 20K, back when I was better at updating. Plus that site once got you a free trip to San Francisco, so step off!

See? You could have stayed in Omaha.

Of course I was, Rexie.
