Americans of TFF

[El Wray]

Hey fellow Americans!

This club is designed to talk all things American. Whether it be our wacky government or other nefarious concerns, this club is for you!

Requirements:

1. Live in the U.S.

Thats all!

If you want to join, post a little bit about the state or major city you live in and any other details about it you want. I will start.

I live in Orlando, Florida. Technically, half an hour from Orlando, but who is counting? We are known for Disney and Universal Studios, but we have so much more! Like a seedy downtown area or the seventh largest American university.

Join, and tell your American friends!

FINALLY!!!! AN AMERICAN CLUB HAS BEEN MADE!!!! I was starting to get a little concerned. We can't have those Aussies rule over this place now can't we?

Well, I live in the U.S. obviously. Southern California to be exact. We have some stuff here. I live an hour or so away from Los Angeles and the beach cities like Hunnington Beach and Long Beach. I live somewhat close to Anaheim which has Knott's Berry Farm and Disneyland. (Darn you for having Walt Disney World. ) And yeah.

Oh and I forgot to add that we have a lot of Mexicans over here? Some illegal. Some legal. You know the whole immigrant thing? Some of them opened up some awesome Mexican food restaurants. And I don't mean Taco Bell or Del Taco food. I'm talking some REAL Mexican food. And it's good!!!

I've been wanting one of these for a while now. Those blasted Aussies and then Europe before them (are they still dead? That's sad) always made me feel so excluded.

Yay America!

I'm from Little Rock, AR. We're famous for Bill Clinton and...

As of now, I'm in Savannah, GA for college. I wanted to leave AR to study theatre, but I'm fond of the South (it's really not that bad) so I just went a little deeper. Savannah is pretty touristy and we have history and ghost tours running all year. There are a few films that were shot here including Forrest Gump. So... that's neat. Never try to get somewhere in a hurry on a sunny Saturday, though. It's impossible. Tourists and horse carriages and trollies everywhere. And you can usually count on a wedding in one of the squares.

Weird, though, because Savannah can go from beautiful historical stuff to awkward ghetto stuff in like... a building. One second you're sightseeing, the next second, you wonder if you went through a wormhole.

I do like Arkansas, even if I left. It's home and there are some great hiking trails.

So yes. I am a Southern girl.

Hey new members! You are both in. On another note, I don't know who you used to be, Dimarik. Fishie?

So true. Savannah is worse than any Orlando ghetto. I actively feared for my life.

Tell everyone to join! Maybe we will have events and the like.

An American club.......finally. I was wondering when we were going to get one of these.

Well I am from Southern Illinois just about thirty minutes away from the Indiana border. A town called Vincennes, that's in Indiana, has quite a few historic stuff there. There is the Harrison House where President Harrison lived. I'm not sure of all the stuff there but there is a lot of famous people from there. They are all from around the Revolution and the Civil War so they are pretty old. And there is a monument, I forgot the name of it but its there.

Hello, My name is Brandon and I'm...*sigh*...An American...

I first knew I was an American when a random Vietnamese child came up to me, claiming I killed his daddy, and then preceded to kick me, during the 60s.

I guess I just wanted the support of my fellow Americans, in this time of darkness in my life.

*bows*

Thank you.


Also I needed a more focused perspective from others during the coming election, than TFF, at large, can provide. If you're like me, and I know I am, then being an American is a constant affliction. Remember, it doesn't have to be this way...you can always vote straight democratic. ><


Now that I've offended everyone... I'M OFF! *flies away, cape trailing in the wind*

[El Wray]

Hey Flash, you are in!

You, and Dimarik, should reveal your real names. Americans don't use no formalities (or usernames)!

I get you guys having Mexicans, but we have a huge Mexican community south of my town. How did they get all the way to Central Florida? Stereotypically, they all pick oranges.

EDIT: Man, I cannot keep up. Sinister is in too, of course. Welcome, fellow genius!

That's correct. You can put it as Dimarik or Fishie. Either one is fine. It'll be a long time before I change my name back to Fishie.

haha I have no idea. Florida isn't that far off from Puetro Rico too, no? But they're not Mexican.

That is true. You do see Mexicans selling oranges or some other fruits on freeways and stuff. You even see them selling roses and ice cream.


EDIT: Ah. My real name is Dimitri.

Okay, first topic: As Americans, who are you for in the presidential election? After flirting with McCain, I am on the Obama bandwagon. Unfortunately, my guy never wins. Florida is still a "battleground" state, so my vote will count, at least.

I am pleasantly surprised with how well this club is doing in mere minutes.

[Sinister]

I join you on the Obama bandwagon with great joy. I sneer at yet another Clinton. And, like you, I considered McCain. I would've voted for Ron Paul. Didn't like Huckabee, mainly because of the name. j/k

More than anything...I somewhat concerned who Obama will make his running mate.

[El Wray]

I liked McCain because of his maverick attitude. It would make me vote for him over Clinton, honestly.

I would bet that Obama makes Bill Richardson his running mate. All the sudden, the Latino vote will gravitate towards him.

Sinister, whats your first name? Thats our (my) policy.
