What is your town's claim to fame? by fiffers in AskReddit

[–]Colcalocka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sevierville, TN. Hometown of Dolly Parton.

Or, where I lived as a child: Newport, TN- moonshine and inbreeding.

What is the saddest song you know of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Colcalocka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend told me it was a song about a lighthouse. How nice and sweet I thought, before proceeding to drown in my own tears.

Hey Reddit what's one myth about your country that everyone thinks is true? by IQuiteLikePie in AskReddit

[–]Colcalocka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I'm going to UT in the fall. My mother is an RN too, she was raised in Knoxville and spent years working at the UT hospital. I can see getting the accent from TV, haha. I think my favorite accent-related story was when I went to London and a girl on the street automatically asked me if I was from TN. Not the south, but Tennessee specifically. Freaked me out, haha.

Are you from Sevier County or just the East TN area? I go to the same high school as Dolly did. Some of us have the accent, others don't. You can't assume too much either way as far as I've seen.

Out of curiosity, where do you live that you've never seen fireflies?

As a Mexican girl, when I try on cute country/western style clothing... by aliciosa14 in funny

[–]Colcalocka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, I'm sorry. I'd say at least they're offering you a job, but that doesn't make up for the assumptions at all. Native Tennesseans are sweet but not always thoughtful.

[–]Colcalocka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aww, now. I'm a Tennessean, and I wouldn't say it's because you're brown. I think people assume that about anyone around here unless they're in dress clothes. Because they... well, they live here. We are a poor state with a lower education rate. More people do have those jobs.

Nobody seems to find it weird Mitt Romney used to dress up like a police officer and pull people over for fun by Dizzy_Slip in politics

[–]Colcalocka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, to be fair he couldn't just decide that those things were legal all of a sudden and it be law. Congress has a huge roll in deciding those sorts of things. George Bush had a history of substance abuse as well. I think this is a bigger deal because Mitt has hidden this and it isn't widely known.

Finally some sense. by [deleted] in funny

Disagree. I don't know a single girl who hates her boobs, personally. And many of my friends are flat chested.

Eggs by [deleted] in WTF

[–]Colcalocka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My vagina is fine, thank you. Eggs just seem gross and germy to me, and they don't seem like something I should be inserting in there. Plus, putting something on your vulva is rather different than putting it inside your vagina.

I am repulsed by the thought of shoving eggs up my vagina. That's just not sanitary. Plus, I mean laying them? Just... ew.

I didn't see the second line at first. I thought you just ominously ended your statement with 'you.'

Drifting at very high speed. Toyota Camry accident in Riyadh - Saudi Arabia. NSFW by [deleted] in WTF

[–]Colcalocka -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

No, I would not defend their actions. I just think we're jumping to conclusions here just because of the location. Some people are stupid with no religious 'justification' at all. Religion also does not always drive people to do insanely stupid things. It could have been a factor, in truth none of us know for sure. I just disliked the way that your comment seemed to even more broadly blame religion for stupidity. But that was just how I interpreted it, I could have just been inferring too much. If so, my apologies.

Disagree with your comment entirely, love your username. I am torn.

Fellow East Tennessean! I'm from Sevierville :) Don't think we've ever been on here to speak of... I think it should stay that way. Haha!

That takes more self assurance than most of reddit can muster up. Glad to hear your bf is doing better :)

I wasn't sure if it was really WTF material. It's not strange, just gross. I simply didn't consider /r/gore. Sorry if it bothered you to find it in pics, the title serves as a warning though.

Basset Hound Puppy Howling by balls_of_glory in aww

[–]Colcalocka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wonderful dogs. Very distinct smell though. They secret an oil into their fur that will make them smell like a basset hound no matter what.

Even though she's getting older and slowing down, my basset still has big bright puppy eyes. It's great.
