You know you're from <insert State> when...

[TwentyOneAlpha]

Well I'll do this one up for coastal Georgia (very different from the rest of Georgia). I found a pretty good list on facebook, edited for the ones I've experienced myself and a few more good ones I thought up.

1. You think no-one over 70 should be allowed to drive.

2. Flip-flops are everyday wear.

3. Shoes are for business meetings and church.

4. No, wait, flip flops are good for church too

5. Sweet tea can be served at any meal.

7. You get annoyed at the tourists who feed seagulls.

8. A mountain is any hill 100 feet above sea level.

9. A good parking place has nothing to do with distance from the store,

but everything to do with shade.

10. You can tell the difference between fire ant bites and mosquito bites

11. It's not "pop." It's "soda" or "coke."

12. Anything under 70 is chilly (and anything below 50 is Fing freezing).

17. You know that anything under a Category 3 just isn't worth waking up for.

18. Spring and Summer are heralded by Polen season and love bug season.

21. You think people who complain about the heat in their states are sissies.

22. Stores don't have bags or shopping carts, they have sacks and buggies.

30. Ironically, you only crave Chik-Fil-A and alcohol on Sundays..when neither are sold.

31. "YALL" is a word.

33. Krispy Kreme dounuts are the only kind of dounuts you eat.

34. You call it a cold Christmas if you don't break out in a sweat in your new sweater.

35. You know the difference between a hillbilly, a redneck, and a Good 'ol Boy.

37. You understand that at least once a year your car will turn yellow with pollen.

39. You say "tuna fish sandwich."

40. You use "Sir" and "Ma'am" if there's a remote possibility that person you're talking to is least 30 minutes older than you are.

43. We don

I miss California.

You can indulge yourself with alcohol purchases on any day!

I have never heard of this no alcohol purchasing on Sunday? Is this a southern / bible belt region custom? That seems really funny to me! (athiest)

You can buy alcohol on Sunday in Montana too, where I was raised. Idk about Texas (the only other state I've lived in aside from the great, if constitutionaly-impared California!)

[Dililah]

Thump that bible. Yup. Also no liquor or wine in grocery stores but that all politic now.

Here in Tennessee where the great Jack Daniel's is distilled...you can't buy it in the county they make it. It still a dry county.

*Ahem*. In Canada, alcohol is available any day of the week, all day, everyday.... all year round. Not only that, but you can start purchasing alcoholic beverages at the tender age of 18.

I'd never heard of the no alcohol on Sundays thing, and I live in Utah. :eek:

Of course, now that I think of it, since there is no wine or liquor allowed in grocery stores, all you can get on Sundays is 3.2 beer. But at least it's something!~
