Funny shit about people in New England
My cousin had this on his blog and I just had to post it too...too funny!! Thanks, C!
If you dont live in new england you probally will not get it. Enjoy!
Forget Rednecks ..here is what Jeff Foxworthy has to say about NewEnglanders...
If you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through 36inches of ice and sitting there all day hoping it will swim by, you might live in New England.
If you're proud that your region makes the national news 96 nights each year because Mt. Washington is the coldest spot in the nation, and Boston gets more snow than any other major city in the US, you live inNew England.
If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September through May, you live in New England.
If you instinctively walk like a penguin for six months out of the year, you live in New England.
If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don'twork there, you live in New England.
If you've worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you live in NewEngland.
If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you live in New England.
And, you know you are a New Englander when: "Vacation" means going anywhere south of New York City for the weekend.
You measure distance in hours.
You know several people who have hit a deer more than once.
You have switched from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day and back again.
You can drive 65 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching.
You install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both unlocked.
You carry jumpers in your car and your girlfriend/wife knows how to use them.
You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
The speed limit on the highway is 55 mph -- you're going 80 and everybody is passing you!
Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow.
You know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter, and road construction.
Your 4th of July picnic was moved indoors due to frost.
You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.
You find 10 degrees "a little chilly."

Those wacky New Englanders! Man, I have to turn in my NE citizenship--this cold is annoying the shit out of me. And by 'cold', I mean forty degree weather...I've turned into such a candy-ass...

kerry, i loved every bit of it...though i would appreciate it so much more if i was older when i left new england! lol...i can still see it all.
g, i couldn't agree more. when in the hell did this happen to us?? lol...i hate the cold and this isn't not cold by NE standards!! oh well, they can change the outside of us but not the inside...fuck that, you need to hold on to that NE citizenship with a vise grip...that's us to the core....lol..
Of course, we could be just hating the cold because we're tender hairless apes and have no biological protection from it...that might be it.
Great work.
