Eat like an adult, with some respect. - French Canadians will be allowed to continue living within designated zones within Maine, under the governance of the Canadian government. - French Canadians will be continue to be allowed entry, but may be forced to leave at any time for any reason. Example include failure to tip servers, rudeness, loud hon-hon-hon-ing, etc. - Beaches are for residents only August 15 - October 1st. - The "pledge of allegiance" will be replaced with a daily televised public shaming of Paul LePage, shown to all schools every morning. - The Capital will be moved from Digusta to Portland. - A wall will be erected on the border of New Hampshire. NH residents will not be permitted entry without a state permitted chaperone, and only on official business. Any spouting of NH political beliefs will result in immediate deportation. - Diversity programs will incentivize people of all cultures to move to Maine so it's not so god damned white.

Lived in Portland for 3 years, commuted to Kennebunk every weekday. Can confirm, Maine rules and it's beautiful, especially during the fall Some tips: - support the local radio station wjzp, the way music should be - farmers market at the park rules - Portland has one of the highest per capita restaurants in the COUNTRY - watch our for ticks - mud season is a thing - you must visit ll bean outlet in Freeport

That was always my station living there. Also, I kind quit buying much bean poo poo. A lot of their quality just doesn't seem there anymore, and I was fine paying high prices for their stuff because of their awesome return policy, but once they did away with that, they kinda lost me. Also, Linda Bean is a loving Chud so that sucks. All that said, its toally worth going to freeport, and the amount that that company does for that town is awesome. redshirt posted:I agree with everything here except for Freeport. But I am crotechy.

What is this choice vote something or other that y'all talk about? Also, good to hear that Stephen King, while weird, is good and has yet to be accused of being a sex pest/anit-gay/ racist etc... My grade 7 teacher was from Maine and apparently had a cousin who was an actress who worked on one of his movies (don't remember which one) but maybe that was more of a "yeah I'm from (place that famous person is from) and my cousin/friend's dad/friend of friend knows (famous person)" .

Ambassadorofsodomy posted:What is this choice vote something or other that y'all talk about? Ranked Choice Voting, allows us to vote multiple ways each election. Example: I vote the Democrat 1, I vote the independent 2, I don't vote for the Republican or I vote him 3. When it comes time to count the votes they will count my first vote as a vote for my guy, but my second and third votes are also counted and could come back to matter, if the election were close. Stephen King is awesome.
