I seem to like making lists, so here's another one about the place I call home:

When giving directions, there is no North, South, etc. there's only 'That way!'
You refuse to be called a southerner.
'Like' can be used as an adverb, verb, adjective, and a noun
One or more of your relatives can't tell you what they do, it's a matter of National Security.
It's the 'Metro' not the Subway.
You can take the metro to another state.
You laugh at tourists gasping at the monuments.
You've been to D.C for almost every single school trip.
Everyone either goes to UVA, VT, Radford, Georgetown, or small private, northern schools.
You get school off for rain...
...and wind....
...but not snow.
There's a 7-Eleven every 2 miles
We aren't all Redskins, Wizards, Orioles, or Nationals fans...
....Actually, most everyone hates the Redskins.
You constantly hear stories about dead bodies that are found in our rivers…. Oh and cows too
You complain that there's nothing to do on a Friday night, even though we live in a huge city.
two words: Abercrobie zombies
Police pull you over for driving a red car...
...and you're not speeding.
You live in a $400,000 townhouse....
....and are considered 'poor'
Your highschool was designed by the same architech that did the local Nordstroms
You consider Virginia the first state.

You haven't had a snow day for 5 years
That's all I got for now, if you're From northern Va, add on! If you have no idea what I'm talking about: "It's a 'ginia thing."
On a scale of 1 to Random, I'm pretty ADHD.
