If you could make a little Eeyore emoticon to go with it, that would be peachy!

Down With Sucking!

Isn't sucking going down anyway?

But not all of the Bitter East Coasters are depressed like Eeyore.

I think there's two variations:
1. Bitter East-Coaster: someone who is bitter about being on the east coast.
2. Bitter-East Coaster: someone who is on the east coast, but not (necessarily) bitter about it.

Whatever you anal retentive control freak. I have just always been looking for the perfect oppertunity to use "Eeyore" and "peachy" in the same sentance. Now my life is complete.

Guess that would make me #2, bitter and on the east coast. :evil:

If you're bitter (and clearly you are), you're #1. For #1, the person is bitter. For #2, the coast is bitter.

But if you're life is complete, then you're not bitter, so you'd be a #2.

I'd better stop it before I confuse myself further. :confused:

Now wait a second, I demand to be #2! Err, umm wait a second, let me put that another way....

I am bitter dammit. I live on the east coast.

I am not bitter because I live on the east coast.

I'm just bitter.

So that's clearly #2.

So I need definitions 1a and 1b. If you are bitter, you are a #1. So #1a will be bitter because of living on the east coast, and #1b will be bitter and living on the east coast.

Or you could just eliminate the hyphen entirely and be ambiguous about it.

But some days I AM bitter because I live on the East Coast and some days I'm just bitter.

So you're a #1, and you waver between sub-definitions a and b.
