Default Re: You Know You're a (your state) resident if...

OK all I could find of Charlene's original mention of "ex" or "EX'was this

Quote:
you go to the ex every year even though you realize its slowly getting worse with each passing year...
so, while its a given that these are meant to be in part arcane by definition to non-residents, and hence, half of the insider humour; RM Ron and I are wonderin'..what in the he** is the EX ? First read several days ago I thought you meant the "ex" as in ex-hubby or boyfriend, etc., until I read the "ah-yes the EX" from others lol.... I am so out-of-the-Tranna -loop its not even funny.... I am at a definate disadvantage..... RON BACK ME UP HERE....course, I deliberately put cryptic and arcane terms any coloradoan would know in , and many out-o-state , or even in -state flatlanders would say huh ? on ....

so I live in a proverbial glass house... and msut not raise stones eh ? OK. have yer little insider jokes..... I'll get Brink and..and...uhm... yeah there is one lady up in Craig, Colo.- we'll talk witty and sparkling cryptic reparte in colorado-ese, and even worse, Boulder-ese, or Aspen-ese..... lol... and you'll be OUTSIDERS....and we will speak and nod knowingly to one another.... like cliques in High School.... lol
j/k guys - glad yer enjoying the thread.....
