2. Sounds like the Springfield MO I know...

Visited friends and family there. Have family located all around Springfield MO. It's the center of the bible thumping country. Nice people, not in your face people, but still. Don't let religious dogma detract from real life, eh? There are some things more important to worry about then the beard growth on someone's face, eh?

Come on now, let's be real. Unfortunately, this constitutes a big part of MO, and drives a lot of our state's economy, e.g., limit on gambling boats, formerly no alcohol on Sundays (eliminated years ago, although you still can't buy booze until after a certain time on Sundays). I love MO, but these people don't rule my life, and I'm one to tell them off if I need to (which I have, in running them off and keeping them from bothering my elderly father (located somewhat close to Springfield MO), they were hitting him up for donations!

Hypocrites. After that, I lost almost all of my respect for these slime bags, especially after trying to take advantage of my dad in his 'senior' moments.
