Johnson County Kansas 

A county in Kansas where wanna-be's who have no other claim to fame try to impress others by saying, "I'm from Johnson County". Makes no difference whatsoever that the person may be poor as crap or redneck as anything, they think that being from JOCO is the be-all-end-all. Maybe one day they will realize they are still from KANSAS!!!

I'm uneducated, don't have a pot to pee in, but I'm from Johnson County Kansas. Be impressed.

I live in Johnson County Kansas. I am a loser and have to tell people where I live in hopes of impressing them.
