Self-explanatory title.
Without knowing the context, maybe Mid-Atlantic Dopers?
Got it in one. BADs are Bay-Area Dopers, but I haven’t seen that abbreviation in a while.
whoa! Now WTF is Mid-atlantic?
Roughly anything within 300 miles of Washington, DC.
Mid-Atlantic refers to the middle of the USA’s Atlantic coast. Around the Maryland, Virginia, and District of Columbia area, I suppose.
Ah. Ok then. I was wondering until today why I had never been invited to join the MADs. SADs unite!
Mid-Atlantic is actually about halfway between New York and Lisbon, Portugal… so there are very few Dopers from there. And the ones that are, well, that explanation would be all wet.
Hey! You stole that line from someone years ago writing a piece about Barbara WaWa…er, uh, Walters.
Someone said of her accent it was Mid-Atlantic…somewhere between NY and London.
So are Florida dopers FADs?
Are there any NADs?
The mid-Atlantic is about 6,400 feet below the surface (and about that much from the floor). The area is sparsely populated except for a few Dopers who’ve crossed the mafia and have been dumped in the East River.
No way I’m prepared to argue with someone from New Jersey about that…
Looking for NADS? Try here…
Grim
No, they would be the Flori-Dopers.
So are those of us in the Reader’s home town CHADs?
No, they’re ChiDopers.
To clarify… when I said SADs, I meant “Southern-Area Dopers.” I don’t live near ANY ocean.
No, no, no. You got it all wrong.
MADs are “Mothers Against Dads.”
(unless you’re talking about MPEG Audio Decoders)
A LITTLE CONTEXT WOULD HELP…
oops, cap-lock slip, too lazy to fix it.
