Most are lame. San Josean San Franciscan New Yorker some a bit more interesting Angeleno from LA. Sidneysider from Sidney Glaswiegian (or Shinewiegian)from Glasgow or Shinola then there are the charachter ones, like being a Cornhusker because you're from Nebraska (it was the "Bug Eaters" in the late 1800s) or a Buckeye from Ohio...but you are not Granite from New Hampshire...it's quirky What are some of the stranger ones you know?
