SLOWLX Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Sorry its long --- The fact that the Dublin Irish Festival is in the fall and German Village Oktoberfest is in September seems perfectly normal. --- You measure distance in time, not miles. --- You remember very vividly City Center & Northland. --- You know how to pronounce "Scioto" and "Olentangy. --- You see nothing unusual about a street being called East North Broadway. --- You know every mini-city in Columbus, and what kinds of people live there. Example: - Short North = Gay/Lesbian - Victorian Village/German Village = Older People or Old Money - Dublin = People with so much money, they don't know what to do with it - Hilltop = Ghetto - New Albany = Yuppies - Hilliard = A lot of hot people, but a lot of snobby ones too. --- If you live in the suburbs, your backyard was actually a cornfield last year. --- That complex on the corner, with the CVS, Frisch's, Blockbuster's and Kroger, that was a cornfield last year, too! --- Your Halloween costume was specially made to fit over a snow suit. --- You either went to Chrome, Long Street or Fat Jacks for teen night, and thought you were BALLIN! --- You went to skate parties @ WOW! --- You know that the Arena District is nice, Campus is NOT, Brewery is Okay, and short north is *~*FABBBBOULOUS!*~* --- Your life goal is to move from Ohio... but never want to leave Columbus --- You throw your cans in your front yard, and in the morning they are gone. (Thank you homeless man!) --- It's POP. Soda is for weirdo’s. --- You have been to a Clippers game because of dime a dog night.. then you hurled everywhere. --- You know/met a dog named Buckeye, Brutus or Scarlet. --- You know Wyandot Lake is NOT a body of water, and Mad River Mountain is not really a mountain. --- You have ridden the bike at the old COSI, or lifted the car! --- You say Kroger’s. It's really Kroger. --- You think the Lane Ave bridge is HUGE! --- You drive down south (toward cinci) and start to see hills and literally stare and think it¢s a mountain.. because you¢re used to EVERYTHING being FLAT!!! --- One out of every 10 cars has something BUCKEYE on it. --- You actually say PROLLY, in real speaking, and know exactly what it means. --- You've gave money to Rapping' Rodney, the homeless rapping bum on High St. ( the high street bum!!!!!!!!!) --- You do not use THE before a highway number. Example: You say 71, not The 71. --- You know what the OUTERBELT means. --- There is nothing unusual about a bar called The Ugly Tuna Saloona. --- You know businesses close on Ohio State Football game day. --- St Patrick’s Day & Halloween are your favorite holidays. --- You've seen stripper poles, stages and kegerators in houses on campus. --- You know what Party Plates are. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA --- You see nothing funny/unusual about: Front St. Long St. Hard Rd High St. Broad St. Gay St. Godown Rd --- If you think every city in Ohio is "Just, 2 hours away" because we’re smack dab in the middle of Ohio --- You go out of state and people say "You're from Ohio? So you live on a farm?" and you look confused and say "FARM? I've never even seen a cow. --- You've played on Tuttle Crossing Mall's "BREAKFAST" when you were a child. --- Girls can flirt their way out of any ticket with the CPD. MUAHAHHAHAHA --- When you drive down 670 with your windows open to smell the fresh bread from the Wonder bread Factory <-- (I totally do that hahahaha) --- You think that there is nothing strange about the city of Westerville being Northeast of Columbus --You know what to say when someone yells out O-H- even when your not in Ohio! ............Sorry had to add that one! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
