Someone tells you they're boycotting a Chinese restaurant because of 9/11.

The weather is boiling hot one day, it snows the next, and it's never just comfortable.

You ask your psychologist to evaluate you for Asperger's syndrome, and he says he doesn't think a test for it exists.

Same here...

Mississippian :lol:

You're told you should eat more fast food in order to be healthy.

People boast about how "safe" the area is, when the violent crime is really just swept under the rug.

You find your neighbors chasing a chicken around your yard.

Even the transsexuals are right wing extremists.

Come on now... That's just buying in to southern stereotypes! I live in Northwest Arkansas and I've never experienced any of those things...

You know your in Buffalo, NY when you wake up on Christmass to find 7' of snow in your yard and drive way. 8O

You know you are in Buffalo area because 90% have the tops of trees are torn off by an early October snow storm. All the trees still had green leaves so the snow collected becoming heavy tearing the tops off trees.

You know you live in Southern California when you can't leave your home without seeing someone wandering the streets in his or her swimsuit.
