ainaweth1) Go to Google.
2) Type in "you know you're from (your state/country) if...".
3) Click on a link to a list.
4) Post it here and bold the ones that apply to you.
You know you're from Texas if:
1. You measure distance in hours. - What, doesn't everybody do that? ;P
2. You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day. - A few times, probably...
3. Stores don't have bags; they have sacks. - Well, my dad sometimes says "paper sacks," but I don't.
4. Stores don't have shopping carts; they have buggies. - (???)
5. You see a car running in the parking lot at the store with no one in it, no matter what time of the year.
6. You use "fix" as a verb. Example: I am fixin' to go to the store. - Not me, but some relatives do.
7. All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit, vegetable, grain, or animal. - Some, but not all.
8. You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked.
9. You carry jumper cables in your car...for your OWN car. - What, we're supposed to carry cables for OTHER people's cars?! XP
10. You know what "cow tipping" and "snipe hunting" are.
11. You only own four spices: salt, pepper, ketchup, and Tabasco.
12. You think everyone from a bigger city has an accent.
13. You think sexy lingerie is a tee shirt and boxer shorts.
14. The local paper covers national and international news on one page but requires 6 pages for sports. - LOL
15. You find 90 degrees F "a little warm." - If it's the middle of the summer, yeah.
16. You know all four seasons: Almost Summer, Summer, Still Summer, and Christmas.
17. You know whether another Texan is from southern, middle, or northern
Texas as soon as they open their mouth.
18. There is a Dairy Queen in every town with a population of 1000 or more.
19. Going to Wal-Mart is a favorite past-time known as "goin wal-martin" or off to "Wally World."
20. You describe the first cool snap (below 70 degrees) as good chili weather.
21. A carbonated soft drink isn't a soda, cola, or pop... it's a Coke, regardless of brand or flavor. - Everybody always says this, but I've never known anyone who called all sodas "Coke." o_O
22. Everyone around you understands "ya'll" and "yonder" and use them commonly. - We say "y'all," but not "yonder" unless we're being intentionally humorous.
