3) Southern Illinoisan to a Chicagoan. ;-)
There is an old feud here in Illinois between the north and the south of the state. I don't take part in it, in fact find it kind of funny. But there are some from this part of the state that highly resent the term being used to refer to them by "them pushy northerns". :)
I proudly claim my hillbilly ancestors from the Ozarks/Appalachians and don't mind admitting I enjoy going barefooted. One of those ancestors got an Illinois land grant from Lincoln for fighting for the north in the Civil War. And if I needed armor on my car, I'm sure I would find a way to get it done. (imagine a smilie with gigantic bare feet)
