1. Go to Google (or Yahoo) and type, "You know you're from (your state) when...."
2. Cut and paste the list.
3. Bold or italicize the items that apply to you.
You know you’re from Tennessee if:
1. You measure distance in minutes.I do this all the time.
2. You’ve ever had to switch from “heat” to “A/C” in the same day.
3. You use “fix” as a verb. Example: “I’m fixing to go to the store I used to say this all the time and then get in arguments with my brother that it was a legitimate word. My brother likes words like "facetious."
4. All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit, vegetable, grain, insect or animal.
5. You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked. It's Tennessee but I grew up in areas that could be termed 'hood like' so no house, no garage and hell no to anything unlocked. We used to leave the TV on so people would think someone was still home.
6. You know what a “VOL” is.
7. You carry jumper cables in your car…for your OWN car.
11. You think that the first day of deer season is a national holiday.During our brief stint of living in the country it was nothing to see someone with a dead deer in the back of their pickup or seeing one hanging upside down from a tree in someone's yard. That hanging part made me uncomfortable. Very.
12. You find 100 degrees fahrenheit “a little warm”.
13. You know all four seasons: Almost Summer, Summer, still Summer and Christmas.
14. You know whether another Tennessean is from east, west or middle Tennessee as soon as they open their mouth. Sometimes I really can tell or suspect.
15. Going to Wal-mart is a favorite past time known as”goin’ Wal-martin” or off to “Wally World”. I wouldn't say it was a fave past time but I use the term 'Wally World' all the time.
16. You describe the first cool snap (below 70 degrees) as good pinto-bean weather. This is not me but my hubby. He can tell you all the 'winters' like blackberry winter and dogwood winter. He's so cutely country sometimes.
17. A carbonated soft drink isn’t a soda, cola or pop…it’s a Coke, regardless of brand or flavor. Example: “What kinda coke you want?”I never got this as it is supposed to be a southern thing but we always just said the name of the drink. Mostly I grew up drinking Kool-aid and when asked what flavor you like, everyone always said, "Red." Which is...not a flavor.
18. Fried catfish is the other white meat. I love catfish and just watched a show the other night about people in Pidgeon Forge going Catfish Grabbin where they try and grab Catfish with their hands. It was sort of awesome.
19. You understand these jokes and forward them to your friends from Tennessee (and those who just wish they were).
