Wicked Awesome Evidence of Being Bostonian
Gotta love this list of 101 ways to know you're from Boston. I managed to get 67 of them - not bad given I've lived most of my life elsewhere.
Some of my favorites:
1. The Red Sox World Series win was, and will always be, one of the greatest moments in your life.7. Your social security number starts with a 0.
9. You know what a "regular" coffee is.
20. You order iced coffee in January
30. You intentionally give wrong directions to tourists, feel bad when they drive off, but then say to yourself, "Ah, screw 'em."
32. You're sick of the Kennedy's, but you vote for them anyway.
52. You know who Whitey Bulger is.
67. 4:15pm and pitch black out means there's just 3 more shopping days until Christmas
71. You can't look at the zip code 02134 without singing it.
84. No, you don't trust the Gorton's Fisherman.
90. You were very sad when saying goodbye to the Boston Garden.
100. You remember Jordan Marsh, Grants, Bradlees, Caldor, Zayres, or Ann & Hope.
101. You actually get these jokes and can think of even more.
One I would have thrown in for the Worcester crowd: "You know to bring your own bags to Spag's." That, and "You used to go to the Ground Round to throw peanut shells on the floor while watching Three Stooges flicks." -andy
