I’ve noticed this odd difference between us. This only seems to apply to people from large metro areas.

Say you’re at a pub and you ask an Aussie where they’re from, they’ll say Perth, Sydney, melb etc. the standard. Ask an American where they’re from they seem to refuse to say there from LA, NYC, etc. instead they name the satellite city which is part of the metro area. It would be the same as a guy from Brisbane saying nah nah not from brissy, I’m from morningside.

I mean is it just me who’s noticed this or am I taking crazy pills?
