28. I may live in JOklahoma
but I do not consider myself part of the JOklahoma community. That would require some shared sense of future. I have been a jobless schmuck for over 2 years now and do not anticipate finding work here anytime in the forseeable future.

No reason to identify myself as an Okie when:
(1) there is no place for me here;
(2) I do not share majority Okie values and do not consider myself part of the Okie community; and
(3) I can't wait to relocate elsewhere.

JOklahoma has been my worst nightmare. I was approaced and recruited. I relocated from another state in 2001 only to be laid-off along with about 30% of my co-workers just over a year later. Some of them also remain jobless. Personally, I hope to moon the Tulsa City Limit sign when I finally vacate the armpit of the Bible Belt.

I really am embarrassed to live in crazy red f*cking JOklahoma. More embarrassed about that than afraid of you knowing who I am.
