I couldn't believe how many of these fit the town I came from!!!
Those of us who grew up in a small town will laugh when we read
this. Those of you who didn't will be in disbelief...but trust me every one of these are true.
1) You can name everyone you graduated with.
2) You know what 4-H is
3) You went to parties at a pasture, barn, gravel pit, or the middle of a dirt road. On Monday you could always tell who was at the party because of the scratches on their legs from running
through the woods when the party was busted, see #6.
4) You used to "drag" main.
5) You said the "F" word and your parents knew within the hour.
6) You scheduled parties around the schedule of different police officers, since you knew which ones would bust you and which ones wouldn't.
7) You could never buy cigarettes becauseall the store clerks knew
how old you were (and if you were old enough they'd tell your parents anyhow).
8) When you did find somebody old enough and brave enough
to buy cigarettes, you still had to go out into the country and drive
on back roads to smoke them.
9) You knew which section of the ditch to find the beer your buyer dropped off.
10) It was cool to date somebody from the neighboring town.
11) The whole school went to the same party after graduation
12) You don't give directions by street names or directions but by references. Turn by Nelson's house, go 2 blocks east to Anderson's, and it's four houses left of the track field.
13) The golf course had only 9 holes.
14) You can't help but date a friend's ex-boyfriend/girlfriend.
15) Your car stays filthy because of the dirt roads and you will never own a dark vehicle for this reason.
16) The town next to you is considered "trashy" or "snooty", but ,
is actually just like your town.
17) You refer anyone with a house newer then 1980 as the "rich
people"
18) The people in the "big city" dress funny then you pick up the trend 2 years later.
19) Anyone you want can be found at the local gas station or the town bar
20) You see at least one friend a week driving a tractor through town or one of your friends drives a grain truck to school occasionally.
21) The gym teacher suggest you haul hay for the summer to get stronger.
22) Directions are given using THE stop light as a reference or the one stop sign on main street
23) You decide to walk somewhere for exercise and 5 people pull
over and ask you if you want a ride somewhere.
24) Your teachers call you by your older sibling's names.
25) Your teachers remember when they taught your parents.
26) You can charge at all the local stores or write checks without any ID.
27) The closest McDonalds is 45 miles away (or more).
28) The closest mall is over an hour away.
29) It is normal to see an old man riding through town on a riding
lawn mower.
30) You've peed in a cornfield.
31) Most people go by a nickname.
32) You laugh your butt off reading this because you know it is all true and you forward it to everyone who lives in
your town (because you know them all!!)
