I didn't say you were LIers. Merely on par with them. LI is less than 30 miles from the city as well. They ALSO don't pay city taxes, and are not a borough of NYC. Accents or no, LIers are another set of people who WANT to call themselves NYers, but are only so as members of the STATE. NOT New York City.
And yes, I get your meaning of how "upstate" is farms and cows and such, but once you leave the confines of the Bronx, that there is upstate.
