So I took the "Which neighborhood of Dallas are you?" quiz on Facebook. While I was surprised to get "Ted Bundy" on "Which serial murderer are you?" and "Chester A. Arthur" on "Which president are you?" on this one, I appropriately got Lakewood/Greenville. That’s the only outcome I’ve seen any of my Facebook friends get so far, so I could only guess which neighborhoods are possible outcomes. It would be cute to have "Which EAST Dallas neighborhood are you?"
Read the Lakewood/Greenville description after the jump.
Here’s the description:
“How’s that liberal arts degree working out for you? Have you taken the dog for its third walk today? Do you want to live in Austin, but are afraid to leave your friends? This cozy, tree-lined nabe is a Mesopotamia between two well-worn watering hole districts. You like to get your drink on and play kickball. You’re either a lush or ironically a lush.”
Hey, I DO like to play kickball. And that reminds me that I should walk my boyfriend’s dog. I don’t even have a dog, but you know, it’s fun to walk other people’s pets. But, man! Hold up. Along with the corrupt abbreviation “nabe,” the part about Austin is annoying as Highland Park traffic. I love to visit our friends down I-35, but I don’t want to live in Austin, thank you very much. Is anyone else turned off by the phrase, “Man, I really want to move to Austin, but [fill in the blank].” And if so, does that mean the author of this quiz is right about our nabe? Hmm.
