Your issue wisbech is you will always be a grockle to many as you weren’t born there. Same goes for the great state of Maine. You cannot be a “Mainer” unless you were born here, even if you moved here on your second day of life, you don’t count. I have actually been in Trump country in Atlanta for work for months and will get back to Acadia in 6 weeks, can’t wait. Trump’s trade war is actually depressing the price of lobsters as exports to Asia are down. I would be happy to pay 15 a pound though as it’s a hard life for a lobsterman.

Disagree, the lefties are far more shouty shouty on here. Steelyeye, that geezer in Holland, Wisbech, Maplesyrup, Maine, all sound off incessantly with their tired old soundbites. It's only really Hrolf and Stirling acting as the counter voices of common sense on a regular basis.

Sums up the Remain camp. Just look at the list of those involved with this "rag" (of course none of these would ever mis-lead the British public would they)

Wonder if that would work on Trump? I digress. The grockle topic and the Mainer topic are not one and the same. One is about tourism, the other about pride and a running joke about being "from away" as they call it here. How can you be racist against "tourists"??? Tourists are not one race, Park Road. Anyone living in a high tourism area, whose livelihood doesnt necessarily depend on it, probably aint too please about a massive influx of people in the summer. Also I simply said people from Maine dont consider you a true "Mainer" lest you were born there. That hasnt got anything to do with racism, Park Road, its related to the pride people feel in what is a unique state in these lands, and is kind of a local joke here.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |

This thread's getting confusing now. If you stay in Maine you're a Mainer, but if choose to to leave Maine, then return to Maine, you become a re-Mainer because you chose to leave.
Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry. |

Personally, the thought of yokels trapped in a quaint English wilderness that, is so far removed from reality, being racist themselves, and associating it with pride and uniqueness... amusing.

A Re-Mainer....very good. like it. Well I have lived in Atlanta for a year now and am heading back up soon, so I guess I am a remainer in more ways than one.

There is no political bias on HOL at all and I think that you are mistaking the fact that the right are more vocal on this site than the left but that doesn't equate to bias. No-one has been censured here for their political views but only ever for their posting style. One of your leftie buddies publically referred to me as a c*** yesterday and I suppose that if he is red carded (which he should be) you will squeal about political bias again TBF Aggers has been publicly called out for calling a journo a c*** not once, or twice, but thrice. And he’s still in a job
Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons. |

I find the fact that you were giving Maine as an example and not Cornwall and me only just realising it...even funnier.

I saw a sticker on a van only today which featured the Cornish flag and this message " Cornish by birth, British by accident, English never". They take it seriously here, albeit with a smile and the tongue firmly in the cheek. Nevertheless they always support Wales in rugby games against England. Bollox, We've got a holiday house near Perranporth and I've never seen the locals support Wales over England on many a trip to the watering hole. The Cornish not English thing is true when it suits them though. Curly haired, web footed inbreeds.

You were talking in generalities about the so called lefties on these pages. You put my name in there as being "shouty" together with others you consider to be left wingers. I was pointing out that the right wingers on these pages are actually more shouty IMHO and also tend to throw around vile humor such as rape jokes. Even Farage, the supreme overlord for many of you, said it was vile, so IT MUST BE TRUE eh, as everything Farage says is honest. But I've never made a rape joke, so how does that link in to your raving? I also think Farage is a complete tosser so I'm further confused. Edited by ChrisGC (14 May 2019 6.56pm)
