Yes, the eventual logic of gerrymandering is that the title 'Representative' ceases to be mildly amusing and becomes a rather unfunny and deeply unpleasant joke.

I have 13 MPs. All of them, save two, are completly anonymus party-line back-benchers that I don't know anything about. Then there's one former S minister Morgan Johansson (HP) and Deputy Speaker Ulf Holm (Neutral)

Valérie Pécresse is still a HP, albeit a mild one when compared to what the UMP is increasingly becoming...

I don't like how my hometown was gerrymandered into a district with Bill Shuster who is from out by Gettysburg while we have three or four other Congressmen of both parties who are closer to here than Shuster is. So, not only are we now represented by a Republican, but a Republican who probably has no idea where the hell Monongahela is. I'd rather be represented by Murphy, even if he's a Republican, because at least he's local.

According to Wikipedia, while Shuster currently resides in Hollidaysburg, he was born in McKeesport, so he has ties to the region.
