OT - trash talking with transplants

[Hiking Gamecock]

I don’t know how anyone else here feels but I think people who move to Columbia from out of state are more intolerable than clemson fans.

I know a guy who moved down here who’s a big Michigan fan. Came here for cheap real estate and warm weather. Loves the Big10, talks junk about Southern teams, and dodges questions like a politician when you ask about Michigans record vs USC.

I’d rather be arguing with people in Pickens County than big10 fans living large off of our economy.

How’s everyone else feel? Would you rather be arguing with Big10ers or taters?
I’ll take the southerners. I’m tired of these transplants.

What about Ohioans? How many of them have you seen landing in Columbia?

More than I’d like, but no where near Myrtle beach/hilton head levels. Surprisingly, and I never thought I’d say this, Some of the Ohio state people I work with have been pretty decent.

Plenty in Greenville. Now in my neighborhood we have the Chicago clan who is soliciting for homes to move their family and neighbors from Chicago down here as well. They've turned the HOA into a political machine and will do the same with local politics. Lord, help us!

They'll vote Blue after having fled Blue also.

The word DAMN YANKEES are more than fitting to all of those dang transplants dirtying up our beautiful state, worse than litter.

Haven't learned a thing from their mistakes and will bring misery wherever they go.

Honestly, I wouldn’t ask the overall record question. Know it’s just trash talk…but Michigan has the most wins all-time and just won a National Title. Is there anything we really should be saying?

But I get why it is annoying. This is what happens when you move to a city where the team has been historically poor. Those fans aren’t quite as loud in places like Tuscaloosa and Athens. They just want to make sure we know there is such a thing as big-time football and that they don’t believe we’re part of that. And the worst part is, they are right.

So yea, it’s acceptable to be pissed. You’re going to be pissed regardless. I’d just let them say their piece and get away from them as quickly as possible.

If you go to the trouble of moving to another state to get away from failed policies, why would you still vote for people with the same failed policies? You will get the same results as what you were getting away from. That makes zero sense.

They’re freaking everywhere.

“Vote Blue, no matter who.” That’s their motto.
