Lots of folks used the last question to figure out where other commentors live. So let’s cut to the chase:

Selangor, Malaysia — please send help.
Guatemala City :D
Southern California. We should build a secrete city, “Eureka” style if you know what I mean. :)
we’re close…..in Tehachapi
The New York City Metropolitan Area (Jersey City, specifically).
In the Netherlands. Above the rivers of course :)
日本 (Japan). I used to reside in Holland for a short time though. Nice place.
ooh, whereabouts? On the main island, Honshuu, or Hokkaido or Okinawa or Kyuushuu (if I remember correctly)
In Tokyo.
Jealous! 日本が大好きです！
I’m in ATX aka Austin (アスチン）LOL!
Upstate New York…
Vernon, Texas. Yes, VERNON, TEXAS! Sheesh!
Dude! Where is that?
Way up North, near the OK border, close to the panhandle…
You still movin’ to big D girl?
yup! In a few weeks…
In the Netherlands. Above the rivers of course :)
South London, UK. BRAP BRAP BRAP! Bruv, mans ain’t wanna roll through our area, cuz we got it locked down! Ya’ get me? Hol’ tight all the Atheist/Agnostic mandem! Big up to Mukz, Juice and all the mandem inside. Shout out to my girl Wayo, shout out to Shcoobzie, shout out to Scribz, shout out to Richard Dawkins, shout out to Christopher Hitchens. And most importantly shout out to all my bredrins on Unreasonable Faith, we on dis ting! Blap! Blap! Blap!
I am so sorry. I just couldn’t resist it. :-( … But yes…I’m from London.
Oh and one more thing: JHEEZE!
LOL. I used to live for a time in Southhampton and we went up to London quite often… Morrisons and Tescos still here? And you have Now….Thats What I Call Music at like 109809?
I think it’s on 75. It actually has a guy on there called Tinie Tempah who I kinda know. And yes Morrisons and Tescos are still around.
I want your babies.
You’ll have to take them from my cold dead hands you bastard.
I live about 3 to 5 miles from Mark, up a hill and then down it again. (I don´t know him personally, he just said he was from Streatham.)
BRAP!
I’m not an atheist, but…Melbourne. The one pronounced ‘Melben’ by the locals, rather than the one in the US.
It’s okay. Non-atheists can be from places, too.
:-)
Sacramento, California, USA. I’m trying to move out as fast as I can.
Congrats … the first American who thinks they should put USA after their location … :-)
I don’t have much patriotism for my country. If I could, I’d move to somewhere better. Preferably somewhere with universal healthcare.
It’s just me having a little jovial dig about the number of (warning stereotype starting) Americans who think (expect?) that everyone else should automatically know that a place is in America and not somewhere else. Probably made worse by the lack of knowledge that can be displayed from anywhere outside of the USA!
It’s the same little bug bear I have when someone quotes part of the US constitution to support their argument i.e. this is a blog that is used by more than just Americans so don’t expect everyone posting to be American.
Oh. I was thinking more like how people not in the US use the dd/mm/yyyy format instead of mm/dd/yyyy format. But yeah, I guess empathy is my weakness and I realize that not everyone would(or should!) know where Sacramento, CA is located.
Yes, US citizens are arrogant, but there is a great body of common knowledge that exists in the world. There is but one California, Texas, or New York. If I tell a South African that I live in Los Angeles, he is going to know where it is.
It’s also true for other iconic world locations. No one has to denote Italy if they say they are from Rome. Stockholm, Tokyo, London, Capetown, Sydney, Buenos Aires, Bangkok, Kabul, Mumbai, etc. There are many places in the world that don’t need their nation to be identified.
And im in Oregon in the USA. :)
You’d be surprised by the amount of people who think Buenos Aires is in Brazil…
I wouldn’t be surprised at all. In US primary and secondary schools, South America (for some unfathomable reason) is tied with Africa for absolutely least-studied area of the world.
I thought Brazil was an imaginary place, like Middle Earth, Narnia or a Libertarian Utopia.
Either that, or its a nut…
When I was growing up, the family would always have mixed nuts for the holiday season (American Thanksgiving to Christmas), and Brazil nuts *vexed the crap out of me*. I could handle all the other nuts just fine, but cracking a Brazil nut with a standard nutcracker is an art I could never master.
Well, it’s better being known for our nuts (hee) than for the half-naked chicks lounging by the beaches, I’m sure.
(Both are ubiquitous, btw.)
Well except the New York that is in the UK for example … :-)
There´s a California In Norfolk (that´s Norfolk, England).
I think we’re on -2 internets for Revyloution …
I think we’re on -2 internets for Revyloution …
On the contrary, there is only one real New York or California, and that should not be diminished by the usurpers of title, whether they precede the great and well-known true ones chronologically or not!
Clearly, there can be only one, and I’m pretty sure California the state could take California the Norfolk suburb with both hands tied.
I’m not sure that Norfolk should be that worried about a bunch of hippies!
They’re a whole lot of hippies living in a spot that will break in half with the next earthquake and led by Ahhnold. Surely that is at least slightly worrying!
I’ve been travelling around South America for nearly a year. When people ask me where I’m from, I just say London. If I said ‘Britain’ or ‘England’, the next question would either be ‘what part?’ or ‘London?’, so it cuts out the middleman.
It’s the same little bug bear I have when someone quotes part of the US constitution to support their argument i.e. this is a blog that is used by more than just Americans so don’t expect everyone posting to be American.
Well, we would quote the British constitution if we could, but nobody seems able to find it. :-b
I see what you did there. Uncodified ftw.
Agree +1 internets for Elemnope
I´m from Britain and I quote the Constitution too. It´s usually a good way of shutting anyone up who thinks that America was founded as a Christian nation.
When you’re discussing a general opinion or even worse something that happened in the UK then quoting the American constitution seems a somewhat strange thing to do …
Britain has a constitution, it’s just not in one document. It’s a series of documents starting with the Magna Carta in 1215 and includes: The Petition of Right 1628, The Bill of Rights 1689 (yes that’s right – we do have one) and The Human Rights Act 1998.
Yeah but Parliamentary Sovereignty could *technically* override those easily. There’s no legal limitations on Parliament *technically*. So Parl’t could if it wanted to punish everyone who wakes up before 9am, kill all Black people, institute Sharia law, pass a law requiring compulsory abortions for every first child and we couldn’t do shit about it, *technically*.
Thankfully we have some restraints which would make it improbable that they could do it.
And boy do I know. I had a law exam a few days ago.
I think that’s the point with the UK “constitution” … it may not be written down as such but it’s understood what it is and MPs do kick up a fuss if they fundamentals are asked to be changed. I just wonder whether Auntie Brenda a.k.a. the Queen would ever use her backstop to stop laws.
Um, the UK does have a constitution – it’s just spread over a lot of different documents.
That’s not a constitution. That’s a scavenger hunt.
Come to the UK – we’ve had it since the 1940s!!!
Pet peeve: Films that give famous world locations in subtitles as “Paris, France” or “London, England”. It makes me want to scream – I mean, I know that there’s a Paris in Texas – but I’m guessing it’s not a massive city and centre of world culture; if I had to express an opinion, I think I could probably tell them apart on screen!
What a funny diversion. But I have to say, after having traveled the world fairly extensively, and trying out different things to say when people would ask where we were from, there is a very consistent recognition of California. Didn’t matter if it was Asia, Europe, South America. You can say America, U.S., United States, etc., but when you say California, all of a sudden their eyes just light up. Not arrogance, just an observation.
Can’t say I’ve ever been to Norfolk, what’s it like?
Flat.
Whenever I said I was from the US, people ask me if I’m from Texas, New York, or California. I guess it’s good that I can give directions from those places :)
Hee hee! Custador, you ROCK! My uncle used to be the big boss at Social Security in Paris, Texas. :D
Romania
Which part?
Eastern Ohio here.
NE Ohio, a little south of Cleveland.
France – here we don’t suffer much from religious fanatics, but we keep fighting every day – and we’re very worried about what’s happening on this front in the USA.
me too, and I live on the “left coast” as all my righty relatives like to say. Too many mega churches in my neck of the woods.
I meant…….me too about being worried for the USA
not that I wouldn’t want to live in your country. I visited last year and didn’t want to leave!
The left coast politically or geographically? I don’t get it.
I guess both. I always assume though, that my family thinks that California is nothing but the pagan land of liberals, but not so. I live in Kern county and that has to one of the most right-wing counties here.
I’d have to say the opposite of what you’ve observed. I’ve only seen liberals here. For instance, if I were to tell someone I were a gay furry, they’d shrug and be like “Cool.”
in Kern county? where?
Northeastern Pennsylvania, The Pocono’s
Hampton Roads, Virginia. I’ve been an avid reader of this site but never a commentator.
I lived in Norfolk, Virginia for a year. I love FM99, hows it going up there now? I still hear Shelly on the radio every once in a while. Too bad (Rumble?) left Tommy and Rumble in the morning. Now I live about 45 miles away.
Sorry Billy, I can’t give you an update on FM99. I don’t listen to broadcast radio save for the occasional report from the BBC on NPR. I hope things are well with you in your “new” locale.
I’m right across the Bay from you on the Eastern Shore.
Scotland
Edinburgh, Scotland here. :-)
Perth, Western Australia (though I was born in Bremerton, near Seattle).
Boston, Mass – metro west area
Lake Worth Florida
Sydney, Australia.
Although people here usually ask if I’m from:
1. USA
2. Canada
3. The internet
Australia does not exist. People would fall off the Earth. LOL
You know how they do it is they tie everything on with ropes. When I was down there I was amazed how well it works. Drinking is a little tricky.
San Diego, California, USA, and no I don’t surf or talk like Spicoli. I moved here from San Francisco and everyone there warned me how (religiously) conservative it was. So to test it my first week I wore a “Proud to be an atheist T-shirt” and the only reaction I got was a positive one from a cute girl working at a grocery store. Not so religious as far as I can tell. SoCal atheists, get yourselves to social functions if you’re not already so we can all meet each other face to face. The San Diego scene in particular is a lot of fun.
That’s ridiculous. Everybody knows you aren’t allowed to use the internet in Australia.
No, that’s only after they bring in the proposed Internetz filter. We can still use it for a while.
When is that supposed to come into effect?
Unknown at this stage, and I can’t find even a proposed timeline. That is likely to be partially because we are approaching a federal election, and new laws would have to be passed to make it legal. That is apart from the issues of technical difficulty, effectiveness, privacy, government secrecy and censorship, and personal freedom which have caused even the US government to voice their concern. There’s a summary of the issues on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_Australia
Unfortunately, the “think of the children!” cry is incredibly strong in Oz, so the current federal government will continue to push it if they win the election unless it becomes very obvious that it’s not technically feasible (which is possible). I’m not sure what the current opposition position is, but given the people currently in charge of the Liberals I suspect they think it’s a wonderful idea if it can be implemented.

Come to US. We just had extensive healthcare reform.

Eastern North Carolina, USA (yee-haw!)
Near ECU or ECSU? I’m in N.E. NC.

Welcome back Nick!
I’m also from Canada; Surrey BC to be exact.
LAX sucks! I hate that airport.

New Paltz, New York (USA)! :)
Went to school there. Love that town.
I used to do work there over the summers in the New Paltz Summer Repertory Theatre, and come from the Hudson Valley, Dutchess County. Beautiful, I am taking a short trip there soon, I miss the valley and the river!
I love that part of NY state. I have family nearby and my daughter was born in Kingston. But, that was a long time ago and I switched coasts.
Ireland, South east coast.
In the Dallas, Texas area.
Same for me. Richardson and Garland specifically.
I grew up over there. Went to school in Garland. I’ve moved across town a bit though.

Omaha, Nebraska, USA. And yes, its scary religious here…
But Nebraska is a great album by the Boss.
I’m in Nebraska, too! Lincoln right now, but my folks live in Omaha. I was raised in the Bible Belt though, and lived in the Netherlands for a while (I’m glad to see so many Dutch people represented! Hi guys :))
Jesus is everywhere up here unfortunately, but I’ve met a surprising number of freethinkers, too.
And yeah, at least Springsteen remembered us, haha…

BTW, I am tagging meself as anti-theist so as to totally piss off all my conservative teabagging evangelicfal family and friends. Good times!
Hey Oblio, I was thinking of pulling a Hemant Mehta and going to Saddleback for a service and even letting them know I was coming. I just don’t want them to get a cent of my money in the process, do you have to pay admission like Disneyland?
I’m currently living in Cape May Court House, NJ (USA).
Madrid, Spain, Europe (at the moment)
Hola picha! I´m near Algeciras, Spain.

Twat. That is all.
When I read heaven I thought if only …
Where everyone is, in fact, from.

There is a town called Twatt on either the Orkney or Shetland Isles, I forget which.

Currently in Santa Cruz, California, USA for college, but originally from San Jose… I’ll keep you guessing as to which San Jose. =]
So you’ll be able to give directions to Dionne Warwick then?

San Antonio, TX…I know.
Las Vegas, NV
Northern California…exactly halfway between San Francisco and Sacramento.
I’ll add another country. I’m from Turku, Finland.
For some odd reason, I was Google Mapping Turku (I am a city planner/architecture nerd). Downtown Turku is pretty amazing! I love the main square, at least from google Street View.
East side of WA State, USA. Hint – the name of the town comes from a biblical description of an orchard in the desert – also an ancient name for Bethlehem.
Walla Walla? ;)
Yeah, that’s it ;-}
Northwest Indiana (near Chicago), USA
I’m from Cedar Lake, currently in Terre Haute for school/summer job.
North West Arkansas
Charlotte North Carolina, USA
Orange County, California
I am a student at Rose-Hulman, a well-respected engineering school which mostly caters to white Christian “Indiana boys” and is located in a culture-less shithole (look it up). This blog helps keep me sane.
Rose has culture, to bad it’s strep :)
Terre Haute is a town that has no redeeming qualities, it would appear.
Born and raised in Central Illinois, but am currently residing in Vancouver, Washington, USA.
Los Angeles – where myth and reality come together!
Windsor, UK
Austin, TX. An oasis of blue in a desert of red.
rAmen to that. I was stuck in Waco for work for 6 months and Austin was a breath of fresh air…….literally
Me too. So obviously I am not from here, as I have never met someone who was both an atheist and a native-born Texan (there must be one out there, somewhere?). I am Canadian.
I am! As is my husband! But I think we are the only two. LOL
NICE!!! Me too!
Im from sweden. I live in a suburb of Stockholm called Haninge.
for us “foreigners”, vant you people from USA spell out the state-names instead of writing NE, FL, OH. I have no idea what you mean! And if you dont write the US-part i would think you came from the Netherlands when you say NE and Finland when you say FL.
I visited Gothenburg once, I enjoyed sights. I would have loved to visit Stockholm, but alas …
My friend visited Stockholm. He met some awful people there who treated him badly. But he loved them. It was like he was under some sort of syndrome!
*comedic drum-roll*
Cardiff, Wales (a suburb of Her Majesty’s Glorious England).
Is it true what they say about Welsh men? ;)
Chiang Mai, [Northern] Thailand
Just how many lukers are there here?
Many
Dripping Springs, TX (gateway to the Hill Country)
Can I just say: Dripping Springs is an awesome name. You don’t often get euphemism / double entendre that subtle. Superb.
Posting to you from Boston, Massachusetts, USA. I just took a duck tour for the 2nd time with my BF and his mom, the driver says everyone from Mass says they are from Boston, but I live in Brighton right on the Green Line by Boston College and Cleveland Circle. Eagle Deli says Hello (I don’t actually have any reason to speak for them), but they are delicious big burgers — if you are in town, we should go!
Southern USA, Northern Texas, Where the West Begins.

I have cousins in Springfield … very religious (one guess which religion).

The land of fruits and nuts! And we like Nancy Pelosi here!
SFBA also these past 3 decades.
Not all of us like The Nan (LOL). She’s another sellout. (lol)
For now, Arkansas :-(
But moving to Christchurch, New Zealand in the next couple years, permanently this time.
lucky you!
Columbia, Maryland, USA
Northern New York, right up top along the St. Lawrence River, USA. (Clarification necessary because most people seem to think “upstate” or “northern” NY is Albany.)
I used to live in Plattsburgh, I know what North Country is. :) I could not spend my life there, not much to do unless you like a whole lot of nothing or easy travel to Montreal.
This is by far the best post so far. Born in Fort Myers, Florida, moved to Norfolk, Virginia at 8, now living in the buy-bull belt of Hertford, NC. All of these are in the USA of course. Only liberal and atheist to be seen for hundreds of miles, I’m expecting to be taken captive eventually O_o
I know the feeling – we’re seriously outnumbered here.
Orangeville, Ontario, Canada

Houston, Texas.
Yes, I’m from Texas & I know many atheists & agnostics.
Balcarce, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The water hemisphere. Trying to counterbalance so many (north)americans, helped by some australians.
Will be an attempt to summarize the information? I get lost between the in-house comments.
Great blog, anyway!
Sydney, Australia
Montréal, Québec
Atheists are really easy to come by around here, but the US being our neighbor, I feel uneasy about all the fundamentalists there.
Maudite marde
Tehachapi, California…..pronounced (tehHATCHahpee)
would be a true slice of heaven if it weren’t for all the friggen’ churches! ;)
Another Tee who also lived in Japan (and England and Texas and…), my home is in the Pacific Northwe[s]t, right on the border of Washington state and Canada.

Geo-synced Orbit
A mountain top in Tennessee.
You’re the only Ten-I-See!
And yes, I will continue to make geographic puns.
Greatest state in the land of the free.
Bismarck, North Dakota. Geographically, it is very nice, but the culture here drives me batshit crazy. I could rant on forever, but the worst thing is probably the Native American/White divide…it makes me sad. Nobody talks about it, but the tension is screaming in the background.
Most of my adult life was spent in Fargo/Moorhead though. I really do love that town, it is culturally diverse and most people (that i knew anyway) embraced this fact. Although the Freethinkers still can’t seem to get those damned 10 commandments off the city-owned property.
I managed to visit Bismarck once, many years ago. It seemed like a pretty nice town. We toured that big concrete block, the State Capitol. and were amazed at the gorgeous woodwork all through the interior.
Oh, btw, I’m in Calgary, Alberta.
Taipei, Taiwan.
Originally from Johnson City, Texas. Not merely the gateway to the Hill Country, but the real deal. (My apologies to Russell. :-P)
LOL! Then tell me Johnson City’s original name (before LBJ)… just curious!
:D
Lilburn, Georgia USA, near Atlanta. Many down here still consider us CSA rather than USA but I think we lost that battle fair and square long before my time.
“Cow town” Calgary Alberta Canada. YaaaaHoooo!!! Come for Stampede. July. 10 days of mayhem where the locals head to the Rockies and hide out until everyone goes home.
Also the bible belt of the north. Or, Texas north, as many call it.
I spent a summer in Edmonton once; long days, nice folks. The side trip to Banff was awesome.

Berlin, Germany, overcast, rainy, 6th week. The Sun doesn’t exist. There is no god and I need more money. Have a nice day! :)

I heard it’s what makes dark grey clouds turn light grey.
