1) You can name everyone you graduated with.
2) You know what 4-H means.
3) You went to parties at a pasture, barn, gravel
pit, or in the middle
of a dirt road. On Monday you could always tell
who was at the party
because of the scratches on their legs from
running through the woods
when the party was busted.
(See #6.)
4) You used to "drag" Main.
5) You said the "F" word and your parents knew
within the hour.
6) You scheduled parties around the schedules of
different police
officers because you knew which ones would bust
you and which ones
wouldn't.
7) You could never buy cigarettes because all the
store clerks knew how
old you were (and if you were old enough, they'd
tell your parents
anyhow).
8) When you did find somebody old enough and brave
enough to buy
cigarettes, you still had to go out into the
country and drive on back
roads to smoke them.
9) You knew which section of the ditch you would
find the beer your
buyer dropped off.
10) It was cool to date somebody from the
neighboring town.
11) The whole school went to the same party after
graduation.
12) You didn't give directions by street names but
rather by
references.
Turn by Nelson's house, go 2 blocks to Anderson's,
and it's four houses
left of the track field.
13) The golf course had only 9 holes.
14) You couldn't help but date a friend's
ex-boyfriend/girlfriend.
15) Your car stayed filthy because of the dirt
roads, and you will
never
own a dark vehicle for this reason.
16) The town next to you was considered "trashy"
or "snooty," but was
actually just like your town.
17) You referred to anyone with a house newer than
1965 as the "rich people."
18) The people in the "big city" dressed funny,
and then you picked up
the trend 2 years later.
19) Anyone you wanted could be found at the local
gas station, drive-in
or the town bar.
20) You saw at least one friend a week driving a
tractor through town
or
one of your friends driving a grain truck to
school occasionally.
21) The gym teacher suggested you haul hay for the
summer to get
stronger.
22) Directions were given using THE stop light as
a reference.
23) When you decided to walk somewhere for
exercise, 5 people would
pull
over and ask if you wanted a ride.
24) Your teachers called you by your older
siblings' names.
25) Your teachers remembered when they taught your
parents.
26) You could charge at any local store or write
checks without any ID.
27) The closest McDonalds was 45 miles away (or
more).
28) The closest mall was over an hour away.
29) It was normal to see an old man riding through
town on a riding
lawn
mower.
30) Most people went by a nickname.
31) You laughed your butt off reading this because
you know it is true,
and you forward it to everyone who may have lived
in a small town.
