      I think you need to review the order of conversation here and what you have previously said, implying that crossing an imaginary political boundary that separates one state from another has some sort of relevancy.

        I never said the borders of the states were the borders of culture. They are merely convenient units to show the breadth of a culture. In fact I split states several times once we got to drilling down at your request. And none of this makes Indiana part of Southern culture. It is firmly Mid-West and part of Ohio River Valley culture built through the 150 years or so the river was the main mode of transport. In fact it’s this same culture that reaches down into Western Kentucky. Which is why Kentucky is only debatably southern, switching depending on which map you use.

              Claiming that you will doxx yourself by saying how much time you’ve spent somewhere and where you went is some weak-ass shit.

              “OMG, she spent 3 weeks in Lafayette in 2013! Now I know who she is and where she lives and how much money is in her bank account!”

              Weak-ass.

                  I am going to take this absolute refusal to say where and when you were in Indiana to mean that you’ve never been to any part of Indiana for any significant amount of time and thus all of this has been you not having the faintest idea of what you’re talking about.

                  So I guess I can move on with that resolved.
