I'm from middle europe, you insensitive clod!
Actually Austria, but i don't wanna decided between west and east.
The Netherlands, near Venlo.
No option for Northern Europe/Scandinavia?
I'm from Finland... and not sure should i choose Eastern or Western Europe, as Finland is located at northeastern part of Europe.

We're been in EU for a while now and we're culturally pretty much like other Nordic countries (Sweden, Norway, Denmark), so i guess i'll choose Western Europe.

You can only have 8 possible answer in a poll..
Now tell us how you would have done that.

SoCal. but i hate the weather here (and the food too, i guess). if i were closer to the !@#$ coast, maybe it'd be a little more tolerable. i'm apparently too damn fragile for these 30 degreeF/day temperature gradients.

Hmmm. Definitely foresaw people not laughing, but didn't foresee anyone taking seriously. Just some lame humour, Jan.
How about this one (
voted world's funniest joke)?:
A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head.
The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: “My friend is dead! What can I do?”
The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.”
There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: “OK, now what?"

Sheesh, what like, Africa is the end of the world with no technology?? Africa is a huge part of the world that i don't think should be included along with Antarctica and "etc".
And what about the far east, japan?

Goshen, New Hampshire USA (probably the smallest town, eh might as well call it a village, that anyone has ever seen).
Currently I'm in Manchester, NH USA for attending Southern New Hampshire University.
I've heard of that reputation - from Swedes. And the cold one from Canadians as well. Seems that sometimes the stereotypes are driven by the ones being stereotyped more than anything else. Nex
