A "poor area"

So, not Chicago, NYC, Ummm, I think that's it. Everything else is the Po

I don't think you have your Teletubbies straight ... I mean not mixed up. Tinky-Winky is the largest of the four, purple with a trianglular antenna and red handbag (hence the gay accusation). Po is the smallest, red with an erection-like antenna (yet somehow not accused of being gay).

Not po' as in poor, po' as in "podunk", i.e. not urban. (Cramped little apartments shared with roomies appear to be OK as long as they are in NYC.)

To some on this board, living in th po' is a living death, suitable only for those with intellects too limited to crave the urban life.

To me, it's living at its finest. A slice of heaven. :)

Hmm, perhaps there is a niche for a po'recruiter. Has this avenue been explored yet?

I thought it was short for podunk, not poor.

Some 'po is good. Some 'po is bad. If you find the right 'po, you can be quite happy there.

Anyone with even a shred of self respect would only live in select neighborhoods of NYC, Chicago and San Francisco. If rent for a studio is under $2K, you're in the Po'.

When the Zombie apocalypse comes, I certainly want to be hanging out with people from the po'. I mean, Phil knows the best place to get a mani-pedi at 3am before the good clubs open, but I need someone who can preserve pork.

True. Their carbonara where they use chicken and bacon instead of guanciale is pretty bitchin'.

I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
Ain’t too many things these ole boys can’t do
We grow good ole tomatoes and homemade wine
And a country boy can survive
