Texas.
WAIT!!!!! Just a few facts-
-We do not ride horses
-I do not wear a cowboy hat or boots
-I hate country music
-There is no oil well in my backyard
-We do have grass
-Tumbleweeds are uncommon in my part of Texas, a tumbleweed on a road even less common
-I do not hate gays
-I don't have a gun (though I know how to load, shoot, and take apart one)
However, I do agree with some Texas Stereotypes:
-I support capital punishment (almost everyone here does, trust me)
-I am against strict gun control (the second a personal gun is useless I promise I'll change my mind) _________________ A writer doesn't solve problems. He allows them to emerge.

I'm the half Greek living round the corner from Phang!
I'd also like to mention some facts about us English ones
Most important one I've wanted to make clear:
*We do NOT call tea chamomile!
lol I don't even think I can spell it and I wouldn't know what it was unless it sounded like the Greek word for it.
*We don't ALL like tea, although most do. (I do )
*We don't all sound like the Queen
*And it doesn't always rain everyday.... we do have sunshine!...a bit _________________ Did you know: If you plug speakers into your ears, your thoughts will be heard out loud

Also, it's kam-oh-my-ul, not kam-oh-meel; foh-rin, not for-in; and an-tee, not an-tai.
And as few consonants as possible! Broo haw haw.
Heheh, reminds me of something I heard - Jerry Springer considers Brits swearier than the kind o' people he has on his show. As was noted, this may be because he thought we were trapped in a Mary Poppins film, like 85% of all Americans. _________________ Stuff here

I like tea. Can't function wivou' a cuppa in the morning.

Nor do we all sound like Dick Van Dyke - cos he doesn't sound like any of us. (ah but I think Phangy has covered that point. )

A demographic poll would be interesting, actually... although you might not be able to do it by country -
By continent or time zone might be the way to go, to see how we're spread over the planet.

WAIT!!!!! Just a few facts-
-We do not ride horses (although I have been on a horse)
-I do not wear a cowboy hat or boots
-I hate country music
-There is no oil well in my backyard (But I do have a natural gas well going in)
-We do have grass
-Tumbleweeds are uncommon in my part of Texas, a tumbleweed on a road even less common

San Diego CA, where I, despite being born and raised here, have never quite fit in with the majority of deliberately ignorant masses who are vastly more concerned with surfing and smoking pot than, oh, ANYTHING ELSE. Not that either of those are bad things in moderation. But I am constantly shocked at the stupidity of people here. Constantly. And I'm not a critical person either, that's the scary part, I really try to give people the benefit of the doubt all the time. Not a lot of book readers here, know what I'm saying? _________________
Sector 17 -- Rebuilding... ... ...
In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said, "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter--bitter," he answered;
"But I like it
Because it is bitter
And because it is my heart." -- Stephen Crane

Auckland, New Zealand.
We're usually way behind the rest of the world in... well, everything. I especially hate how we get book releases later than everyone else, and I often hear complaints from my friends about the quality of the electronic hardware here.
At least it's clean, right?

Harlan, Kentucky, U.S.A
Just thought I'd go ahead and put my ten-cents abouta few things:
1) We don't all have a southern drawl... of course most do and some have one that is just terrible, but not everyone does.
2) We are not all hicks\hillbillies (no shirt, no shoes, curse, spit, drink, do drugs)
3) No everyone lives in a trailor park, the projects or a dark, solemn hollow.
4) We don't all "cling to our guns and religion", nor do we have "at least six junk cars in the front yard."
5) ABC recently ran a special entilted, 'Mountain People." Most of the "information" within that documentary is very much false, just incase anyone happened to see it.
6) Yes, we are literate... most of us.
7) No, not everyone cock-fights, is toothless, shoeless, uneducated, jobless and on welfare. _________________ "Write in the dark and watch your words take on a whole new light." HiddenHeartsCry

*points at my sig* That answer your question? I'm a few miles south of Leicester, Leicestershire, the East Midlands, England, Britain, Europe, Earth, Sol, etcetera.
It's not a bad place to live, but it's not exactly tourist country. Mostly farmland. Very little crime, but very little going on either. Great place to live, not a great place to have a life. _________________

Vancouver, BC, Canada =D
...or, more accurately, a small town near Vancouver. It's really the perfect place. It's a small, quiet little farm town far away enough from Vancouver that there's almost no crime or anything, but we're still only a 40 minute bus ride from downtown. Vancouver's right by the coast, too, and I can bus down to the ferries to go to Vancouver Island in about 15 minutes (or the Vancouver International Airport in 25-30 minutes). But we're also close to forests and lots of parks, and mountains for hiking and camping. _________________ You are the music while the music lasts
