Bwahahahaha! And I love the comic that goes with the article!
Being a reformed Yankee (who quickly learned to move SOUTH of the Mason-Dixon line and appreciate the finer things in life, like, hmm, FOOD THAT HAS FLAVOR), we used to make fun of towns like this back home. Too bad people can't take a joke anymore in this society. But I'll continue to make them anyways
