[QUOTE=Elendil’s Heir]  
Well, as a fellow Buckeye, I want you to know that _I_ respect Chillicothe. I’ve even been there a time or two. And “Cleveland” means Cleveland, Ohio, USA, natch.  
[/QUOTE]

“Best Location in the Nation.” was the official motto. Of course, they never specified _which_ nation.

Or “the North Coast,” or “the Plum” (to riff off “the Big Apple,” cringeworthy though it was, back in the day). And we don’t need to get into the whole rhymes-with-Fake-on-the-Stake thing, either, do we?

Fuck you, **Giles**.

There. We should be all set to be in the pit now. 😉  
My location is a deeply held secret. It’s not even on the internets! (The last time I searched anyway.) Anyone from the North Shore in Massachusetts would recognize it as a local greeting/saying.

Yeat!  
[/QUOTE]

I grew up on the North Shore of MA and never heard this. I lived there for 35 years or so. Packy, wicked pissa, etc.. I know Yeat? Where the hell are you from?

My, that’s clever. Have you ever considered “The Universe”? Or “Location: location: location”? Or “Right here”? Or “Behind you”? The wit on display by you fucken comedians is simply paralyzing. I can’t stop laughing.

Or screaming. Or whatever it is that I’m doing when I’m shaking uncontrollably and making these agonized cries for assistance.

As Woody Allen said in a classic routine from the early 1960’s,

" My parents had very old world values. We were from Brooklyn, which is the heart of the Old World. Their values were God, and carpeting. "

😃

I figger that New York State is specific enough.

You know, I think a more appropriate place for this thread is “ATMB”–too bad I’m not a Mod, huh?

Frinstance, now I’m wondering if anyone was ever prohibited from posting a joke location. “Your Mother’s Pussy,” say. is it possible that some jokes would be deemed in unacceptable taste? Has anyone ever tried “Your Mother’s Pussy”?

As a location, people, as a location.

Although when you think about all the truly offensive nouns I rejected serially to complete the three word-phrase beginning “Your Mother’s \_\_\_\_,” having rejected them all (and I happen to know that my first choice ranks, **Twix** , as your least favorite word in the history of the English Language, though I have at least three others that many folks consider even more offensive) maybe it is a bit of a puzzle why I’m not perceived with more affection as a thoughtful contributor to a closely knit on-line community.

I mean, talk about fighting ignorance. It’s possible here (haven’t done a thorough search) that no one on the SDMB has ever wondered before about a “location” so insultingly offensive that it alone was cause for rejection of an application for SD membership. But do I get gratitude? Do I hear the swell of applause from my fellow Dopers? Well, do I?

Mine is the word the Omaha indians used for the Platte River. Which was, I believe, also what the Oto called it. And then the French came and made it French-o-fied. And then it became the name of the state.

And I agree with the others who have stated that it my location is important (which, to my knowledge it has never ever been) I mention it.

I used to say I was “near Hardscrabble, Indiana”. Then some dimwad with a bad attitude used it to tell me _I din’t know nuthin’ bout no illegals, nohow_, because he thought I lived in the sticks. There’s a whole lot of civilization between L.A. and NYC.

I live about 300 metres from Mink Slide.

Or, rather, from where Mink Slide _used to be_.
