I pit Dopers who don't share their location!

Nice to meet you, neighbor. I trust my Location field meets with your approval?

Pthpth. If you don’t know where my location describes or have to guess, then you’ve never been there.

Ayuh. :wink:

Nope. They’ve got gambling in Purgatory, too, but the big difference is instead of giant, “98% PAYBACK!!!” signs, they say, “THE OTHER 2%!!”

:smiley:

You know, this isn’t my real name, either.

As a random aside, Rambo: First Blood 2 is really rubbish. Now all you’ve got to do is work out where’s showing that movie at 00:24 GMT and it’s all gravy, dude. Oh, and just to throw you off the scent: y’all, bloody hell, shrimp on the barbie, allahu akhbar, vive la France and suchlike. What what?

Bugger.

I use a popular nickname for the nearest big city (I don’t live in it, but I work in it), one which reflects one of my interests, as well. So, you learn twice as much from mine, in just one little “bit” of information. Pretty cool, huh? :cool:

Yes. Carry on, neighbor.

Ditto.

I used to have my exact location, but because I’m so popular I had to make it a little vague so all the dopers would quit stalking me :slight_smile:

Lies and propaganda!
You probably hate me. Mine changes as the mood strikes me. Usually it says New York. But, in the past week it has also said “at home” “at work” and “in the TARDIS”. Blame the Admins for allowing me to change it. Blame the software for making it so easy to change. It’s not my fault I tell ya…

While I am pretty sure I know where you live, your location seems appropriate to me. You’ve dropped enough hints in various threads to narrow down your IRL location, I think.

Rigamarole: LA is pretty big, maybe you should be more specific.
Are you actually in LA proper or a nearby suburb that makes up the Greater LA? :confused:

:smiley:

This seems like a very silly pitting. I think I understand why many people don’t list their locations. I like providing the general locale as opposed to the town. But some people wish to be anonymous and others don’t wish to be defined by their location.

If you want my exact location, talk toFaruiza or Roadwalker. Otherwise, the general area will have to do. :smiley:

Mine’s pretty Google-able. It’s a line from a song by the Standells. The line that follows is “Boston, you’re my home.”

See post #8. :wink:

(L.A. proper, if you’re lazy)

I don’t list my location because I hate living here and can’t wait to move. As What Exit said, I don’t want to be defined by where I live. Plus, I don’t think "Missouri’s red, white and blue ass-pimple* would fit up there.

Otherwise known as Branson.

We got another one?! :eek: <waves frantically>

OMG. We may be gaining enough for our own small town DopefestTM!!

We had another…actually my very good friend who turned me on to this place waaaay waaay back in around 2002 or so, but he’s not been around that I’ve seen. Which is a bummer, so now that it’s really on my mind, I’ll ask him why not, harass him, and see if he wants to chime in with his location.

The trend only bothers me when the subject in question plays the International Man of Mistery game, it´s very annoying; Aldebaran was the finest example of such beheaviour.

My location is perfectly accurate, although I suspect the OP wouldn’t approve.

You’re correct. I mean, it’s just so nondescript, how would I know what Earth is like? I’m from Los Angeles.

I do not share my location because I feel its about what I have to say, not where I am from, or indeed my race, my skin color, my religion, my weight, my age, sexual orientation or any other generally irrelevant factor. I am certainly not about to relinquish this aspect of my private life merely to satiate the OP’s curiosity.
