"They" Have a Word for "Us" Too

I live in Silicon Valley. Like other valleys, it is surrounded by mountains. I work in those mountains. All this time I was going up there thinking to myself, "look at these little towns full of mountain folk, who would live up here?"

Then I started dating a mountain man. It turns out that he has a word me for me too.

Flat-lander.

He sits high on his mountain, well above the smog layer, looking down on my big city thinking, "who would live down there?"
