They call me ... Sarcasmo
I've lived in St. Mary's all my life and I do not find the term SMIB offensive. I just figure that the person trying to call me a SMIB is just jealous. Between my wife and I our lineage can be traced as far back as the Ark and Dove, and if that means we are SMIBs then so be it.

I've lived in St. Marys all my life too. I just laugh when people us the term SMIB. If you feel that the meaning is So Many Intolerable *****es then I'll just say Thanks for the compliment!

So, if you are 2 out of 3, I wonder if that makes you a SMIB?

Just to balance things out - re Calvert County:
http://dcregistry.com/users/calvert/page1.html
You know you are in Calvert County when:
you see hairstyles you haven't seen since the 70's.
you see ugly wishing wells on people's front lawns to cover a less-ugly septic cap.
you know people who honestly believe that beer out of a 10 oz. can is BETTER than beer in a 12 oz can.
you see that pickup trucks outnumber cars by 2 to 1.
you get so used to the putrid smell coming from the Lusby landfill (410-326-0210) that you hardly notice it anymore.
when you ask your kid what they did in school today, they reply "we watched the movie Flubber!" Does anyone else care that their tax dollars go for entertaining children in schools rather than educating them?
you realize that people don't know that in the rest of the free world, the LEFT lane is considering the passing lane. If you don't know what that means, maybe I need to explain it to you. If you are driving in the LEFT lane, you should be going A LOT faster than the cars in the RIGHT lane. Got it? Also, if you need to make a left hand turn, you don't need to get into the left lane 10 miles before the turn-off, ok?
when someone says they are going "up the road" you know what road they are talking about.
a new Food Lion store opens and they shine a huge spotlight at night, as if it's the premier of a blockbuster movie in Hollywood. Hollywood, California that is....not to be confused with Hollywood, Maryland. In case you don't know where Hollywood, Maryland is - it's up the road from California, Maryland.
every household has all the necessary condiments in the kitchen: salt, pepper and Old Bay seasoning (perhaps in a gallon size jug bought from a warehouse store).
when flipping past the local cable access television station, you see that they are still advertising "Breakfast with Santa" with a November reservation deadline (and it's currently February).
you've laughed at the Mattress Mart Mascot and wondered how much money he makes to wear a mattress costume every weekend and wave to people on Route 4.
after a while, you are able to correctly identify SMIBs when you see them.
you can tell the socioeconomic status of your neighbors by looking at the appliances they throw out in their front yard...almond for classier people, white or avocado colored appliances for the less fortunate.
during deer hunting season, your neighbors hang a dead deer from the tree in their front yard and they think there's nothing wrong with that (it happened to me!!!!) I live in a residental neighborhood, not in the boonies.
you start thinking that Taco Bell is real authentic mexican food. Restauranteurs...I beg you...please....yo quiero Taco Bell, but we need a decent mexican restaurant!!!
a night out on the town involves going to a Wal-Mart (if the Tiki Bar is closed for the winter).
your county commissioners in the early 1990's enacted a "cat leash law" but vote AGAINST making it mandatory for people to provide suitable shelter for dogs that live outdoors!
A bit of advice for people moving into this area...your move here will be less traumatic if now you start weaning yourself off of going to the mall to hang out and to shop. The nearest real mall is 45 miles up the road!!
Don't like my site or think I am being unfair to Calvert? No problem, just let me know where your "I love Calvert County" webpage is at, ok?
