Democrat campaigns know better than to call my area's telephone prefix. TFM.

    This can hardly be considered a TFM at all simply because the exact opposite is true in other area codes (who the fuck calls it a telephone prefix, are you an illegal?)

      (area code) telephone prefix – number. That second set is more specific to a smaller area. At least, I hope that’s what he meant.

    This means you must live in upstate NY, or a shitty part of Staten Island. Either way, your a GDI.

      One would figure JewYork would be an excellent area for a Democrat campaigning to call.

    Ok, so we’ve got the city ( 212, 718, 917, 646, 347) which is decidedly liberal, the Island (516,631) also tends to vote liberal, you’ve got the Hudson Valley (845 and 914), also very liberal.

    So you live in the middle of no where? Because that is basically the rest of New York

      Staten Island isn’t so liberal. But it’s a bunch of Guido’s, and is even more GDI infested then the UES and UWS.

      Both Rockland and Westchester have some very conservative areas, but if you look at a map, they gerrymandered the shit out of it

    So I’m a little cracked out on addy and writing a paper on social forces that shaped america, and I’ve been wondering this for a while, and I’ll set some context:

    From 1865-1948, the South was the “Solid South” for Democrats. As such, that means most of the founding fathers of our fraternities were probably Democrats. The South being a solid basis of Republican support only started after the LBJ administration signed the Civil Rights legislation in 1963. By being staunchly Republican, are we in fact being TFTC or are we making our founding fathers turn in their graves?

    I may also be a little drunk, but I have been wondering this for a while. Is it frattier to be a DixieCrat or a Republican. One is a statement of maintaining family and cultural tradition, whereas the other is a statement of sound economic policy and states’ rights.

    Lines on Lines and drinks on drinks, get your work done

    1. The term democrat and republican have switched meanings. Like Lincoln was the ‘founder of the republican party’. The republican and democratic parties switched meanings decades ago. If Lincoln were alive today, he would be the biggest liberal democrat. The South has always been conservative, not republican or democratic. Some people think you can’t be a liberal republican or a conservative democrat, they are wrong. Back to history class with ya

      Disregard the current usage of both terms & look at it from a conservative vs liberal point of view. The South has always been conservative, despite the political party associated with their conservatism.

      ^ A woman with political knowledge? I can respect that. Especially since she’s right.

    1. Area code. Prefix? what the fuck?
    2. New York’s electoral votes almost always go to the democrat, so they probably call you every fucking election
