>2. Your favorite adjective is "wicked"

Ai yi yi --- no! Wicked is an adverb, never an adjective. It can be wicked hot out; those kids at M.I.T. might be wicked smart; your new car might be wicked fast; but nothing's just wicked except witches.

Note: Pete's Wicked Ale is NOT for New Englanders. It's for people who go to college in Boston and think they're getting some local culture.

[B]Let's see.. dirty jersey, we have the attitude, we're going to step on a needle if we go to the beach, we're crazy drivers... the list goes on...

But for you NEW JERSEY folks... check this out:

"You Know If You're From New Jersey" one... here are a few:

-You know the town Jon Bon Jovi is from.
-You don't think "What exit" is very funny.



Hehehe- I still love Bon Jovi, and frequently drive past his old house in Sayerville and his new mansion in Rumson. Too bad he wasn't watching the fireworks in RedBank.

When someone says that, I look them dead in the face and say "14A off the Turnpike, gotta problem wit dat?" It usually makes them stumble over their next words...
gotta love Jersey......

Well I gotta hand it to you enlightenment, you've got the stereotypical NYC'er down to a tee. However 4 other important stereotypes that are def worth mentioning:
* we are all snobby rich bitches
* we all have met and socialized with celebrities at one point in our lives and are on a first name basis with at least 5
* a can of mace: every New Yorker's best friend~ don't leave home without one
* we all wear nothing but head to toe black

Jeezer, you All are Paranoiia!!!!

KS/MO. are the very best! We do not talk funny, no accent!!!

Yall have no damn Udedaddnbdd of what you speak!

We from the Great Part of these USA can go anywhere anda are not restricted by the Land Mass as WeKnow as America!!! :cool:

You know you're from Alabama when:

1. It's perfectly legit to pass in the right lane.
2. You refer to fried bologna as "Alabama round steak"
3. You found the movie "Sweet Home Alabama" to be true and yet irritating
4. You have a MLK Blvd. and a Lurleen or George Wallace Blvd. in the same city
5. You know why they took Vulcan down...and you giggle about it
6. You get pissed when people refer to Dauphin Island as "Dolphin Island"
7. Your idea of a big weekend is going to Atlanta.
8. You know Lynard Skynard wasn't the only group who did "Sweet Home Alabama"
9. You don't find it strange that Alabama has a professional minor league hockey team. And that it's good.
10. You would fight anyone who talked sh*t about Paul "Bear" Bryant
11. Cut off sweatpants are perfectly ok for wear anywhere but funerals and weddings.
12. You refer to Montgomery as "Muntgumry"
13. You have at least 50 Baptist or Methodist churches in a town of at least 5000.
14. In high school, to be cool, you went to Panama City Beach.

You've just described me! ;) Not the first two, but the second two.

Yeah I gotta admit, I've run into more than a few celebrities:p I dunno about the whole first name basis thing though...

I've only seen 2 and I never actually "met" them. Well Robin Williams knocked me down on the street once when I was 7 by mistake but that's it.

I dated a guy from Boston...and it's SO true!!!

Let's see...IL...we have two things associtated with IL...
Lincoln and Corn

1) Lincoln was from Kentucky, but we claim him anyway
2) Yes, this state is nothing but corn.

Oh, and most people south of I-80 don't consiter Chicago part of the state (well, geographically part, but it's no where near the rest of the state, culturewise)...as the only thing we care about in Chicago is the Cubs and Bears...and that's mostly just to find out how bad they sucked this game...

Just like people from Chicago consider everything south of I-80 Southern IL...even though it's probably about 80 % of the state.

Yea, the only true FIBs are those from the Chicago area :) hahaha

F***** cheesehead. :p

yep, i can agree with pretty much all of those!

Alpha Frog,

I am a California girl, but my husband is from IL, about 30 minutes from Macomb. You can imagine my shock when we pulled into his town. All I saw was fields!!

At least Macomb gave me a little relief, something that sort of resembles a CA city!
