i dunno how many times ppl have made the distinction that 'the suburbs' is not a very precise term and not exactly what people have a 'position' on in any case

Now, he is held up as a national hero. But he says the guiding principle is simple. "People here have five aims in life: money, a car, a house, a son, and respect. We give them that. Every family here is rich. Our target now is to make all of China rich."

ya but do you have respect and a son?
― iatee, Wednesday, 4 May 2011 15:31 (fifteen years ago)
I think they're thinking the son comes after I find a woman, unless I need to find an extra somewhere.

when people jam together, swapping 'moves'
Would honestly love to hang out with any suburbanite ever than someone who uses the phrases "jam together" and "swapping 'moves'" in reference to dancing on a light pole.

The "soccer moms make their daughters bring their little brothers over to a playmate" diatribe sounded like the "every neighborhood had a kid with a purple shirt, know what I'm talking about?" Cosby spoof.

"Don't you hate it when soccer moms leave their sunglasses on your patio and call you later while you're watching 'The Dog Whisperer' to see if you found them? I hate that!"

Why would you have a soccer mom over at your house unless you were a soccer mom? Honestly I don't want this crap around my children.

i love suburbanites who think if they don't socialize with the neighbors they despise that they're going to wind up in the townhouse development version of shirley jackson's "the lottery."

try living in the suburbs and NOT having kids. people look at you the same way they probably looked at train-hopping hobos who rolled into town turning the depression.
