@Brandy @Jeber I lived in OK briefly as a teen..for about 10 months. I couldn't make any headway as far as developing friendships because I wasn't from there, didn't go to school with them from kindergarten on up and being from CA I was doubly ostracized. It is not a friendly place especially if you lean left which, even back then, I definitely did. Weird blue laws, bringing your own booze to the bar, and even a mj roach could get you serious jail time (not sure if that's still the case).
@Brandy @Jeber Also back then most tv channels went off air by 1 am at the latest and it seemed like we had tornado warnings every other day. There wasn't much to do without friends. I went to one beer bar as my ID said I was 18 which was legal for beer then but grew tired of the music (country/cw) before I could even get a buzz. Worked 2 jobs to save up the $ to move back to the SF bay area and rent an apartment and never looked back.
