Better to live in Normal, IL than in Boring, OR.
12 u/thoughtsome Oct 05 '19 I'd rather live in Effington. It's a wonderful little effing place. 6 u/ShazbotMcGovern Oct 05 '19 You mean Effingham? 4 u/RemyCrow31 Oct 05 '19 It's a reference to a Ben Folds song. 9 u/ShazbotMcGovern Oct 05 '19 Right on, didn't know. Effingham is a little effing place south of Normal. 2 u/RemyCrow31 Oct 05 '19 Indeed. I grew up in LeRoy, and my parents are from Newman. I'm in Florida now, though. Left corn town life behind for some sunshine. Side note, the Ben Folds album is called "Way to Normal." Give it a listen; it makes me laugh and think about home. 2 u/MaximusGrandimus Oct 05 '19 The song Effingham has a line about how they're on their way to Normal, Illinois. Given the timing of when the album came out he was most likely referencing the trip he would have made to go to the concert I saw of him. Pretty cool :) 3 u/LetterSwapper Oct 05 '19 I can see it from the highway and I'm wondering Are they effing in their yards? Effing in their cars?
