There is a golf cart in my neighborhood with the word "MASSHOLE" in big letters across the front. Yup, they are from Mass. In fact there are more people from MA in our neighborhood that there are from NH or anyplace else.
Nobody makes a big deal out of it there....maybe we all should do the same thing here.
Have a happy and safe Labor Day weekend, everybody.

I grew up in Massachusetts so that makes me a mhole also, everybody is in a big hurry to get somewhere, so I moved to Rhode island, not much better there ether. So I moved to Maine where the pace is much slower. It took me a year to realize what an ass is have been, driving around like a Maineack, I just thought that everybody drove like that. So the point I’m tiring to make is it doesn’t matter where you live if you have out-of-state plates your form “away”. And the locals are going to give you a nickname it’s not a “slur” it’s just a funny way to identify the out-of-staters.

I've lived here for 10 years now, still have Mass plates on all my vehicles. I'll never submit!

I rode that out for a while as well until my licence needed to be renewed.

I saved a TONNN of money on my car insurance by switching not to Geico, but to a NH resident! Might be worth while to investigate if you haven't already.

"I rode that out for a while"...that's so funny because my wife asked me all the time...how long are you going to ride this stubbornness out?

I have the drivers license. I live here year round so I wasn't going to play games with my CCW permit. That could get me in real trouble. I registered my motorcycle in NH. My cars still have Mass plates. One of the biggest reasons I didn't register the cars in NH is their law saying I'd have to remove my tinted windows (Live Free Or Die). That, and not being able to give fellow drivers in Mass the finger. In Mass we see the middle digit as a sign of affection, unless it's an out of state license plate. Then, it's plain rude. I don't want to be rude.

I think we should shorten this term of endearment even further to M'oles.

LOL! I moved to southern NH over 30 years ago and couldn't wait to change my plates! : )

...and now my license says "Moultonborough." Even better!
