Feed into my superiority complex:

My last name is Boulerice (aka Bowl-of-rice)...

For years I have dolled out solicited and unsolicited advice to friends. Ive learned Im pretty damn good at it. Post your questions, from fun and amusing to dark and serious.

If (when) you find resolution, please post them as well. I will connect questions to resolutions so I won't leave you in mystery, like that bitch Dear Abby does.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
Email me at gboulerice@gmail.com with your queries. I will respond and post in a timely manner (according to me). All posts will be considered anonymous unless you specifically want me to post your identity because you like fame and attention.

Transplant Rejection

Dear Bowl-of-Rice,

Ive recently moved to the
great (well, thats debatable) state of New Hampshire - from New
York City. I often stick out like a sore thumb when out in public.
Whether it be my accent, my loud personality or my funky/unique style.
When asked where I am from - answer with NYC. I dont always get... a
warm response, usually the first question out of their mouth is, "DO YOU
LIKE THE YANKEES?!?!?" - My question is - what type of response should I
answer with when asked if I'm a NY'er? Quirky and Smart? Defensive and
Bitchy? HELP!

Dear Immigrant,

I would suggest that you simply and quickly declare hatred of the Yankees. This is not really a gray area if you want to have friends in New Hampshire. Having grown up in that state, I can tell you right now, they are very good people, but they are definitely not "nice".

Friendships in NH are usually formed over a mutual hatred over something, rather than a mutual love of something. Discover what people that you want to know hate, and develop hatred for that same thing. You will be Ms. Popularity in no time.

Sincerely,
~Bowl-of-Rice

ps. i know many loudmouthed smart ass quirky NH people. you should fit right in in no time.
