And from Texas too... that’s gonna leave a mark.
Change your location on your profile page and then you can see who’s in your neck of the woods.
There’s some good FReepers in MA.
PS: At least your farther away from some real dubious characters.
Being an American, I don’t think you are exclusive.
Boston is really a shortened version of it’s real name: Bozotown.
We will pray for you...hang in there..You have been called to action!
Visit the historic sites. A LOT!
Go to the FR local board for Mass, a lot of fine people there, introduce yourself. I was a Masshole for 42 years and I knew many of the Mass FReepers personally.
On a related note By the way, Ted Kennedy has been alcohol free now for over 2 months
Been to the RMV yet? That place is the perfect example on how government works around here.
Just tune in AM 680 any time except the morning show.
Good luck and welcome. Lots of good b-ahhs here and — believe it or not — there are many conservatives here even in the Cambridge/Somerville area (right across the Charles). As someone mentioned the issue beyond all the college students, professors, limo-liberals and typical wackjobs lefties is the unions (especially the public unions). The corrupt democrats have the unions in their pocket, so even though many folks I grew up with share many of the values I do (lower taxes, less gov’t, 2nd ammendment, etc..) they’ll never vote against the democrats. It’s annoying, but it is what it is.
Also be aware that it’s a b@#$ch to get a License to Carry (LTC-A) in any of the cities here. I managed to get one, but Boston is a real PITA to have to deal with.
Again... welcome.
Look up the illegal Guatemalans that worked at Mitt Romney’s house over 11 years and get them to tell you stories of how right wing he was as their Governor.
Sorry, can’t help you. You’re screwed.
The most important thing to remember is that you can't argue with them because their culture is different. It's like if you went to the deepest jungle in Africa and the local tribe found out that you have an iPod. In this case, your iPod is reality, and the liberal natives of Massachusetts can relate to it no better than savages can relate to wireless internet. When they become frightened, they chant things like “Bushitler,” “No blood for oil,” and “Change you can believe in.” They generally won't attack you because they fear physical combat. It has bad magic. However, there are occasional incidents among some tribal members who have drunk too much alcohol, which they call “fire-water,” or “likka.” If you believe that you are threatened by one of these natives, tell him that you are friends with Chief Dick Cheney. They don't like Cheney, but they're afraid of him, so they'll leave you alone. They also have no idea that Texas is bigger than Fenway Park, so they'll believe that the two of you barbeque together on Sundays. Massachusetts liberals are not very smart.
They got good food and drink. Lots of historic sights to see. The subway used to be free when in uniform. Get off base every single chance you have, get out and do and see stuff. It really has outrageous falls, pretty winters (cold as hell though) and postcard Christmassy.
Who did you piss off ?
Good luck getting back home !!!
