You have actually burned your hand opening the car door.

No one you know would ever dream of having vinyl upholstery in a car or not having air conditioning.

If the local weather service records 0.02 inches, they call it rain. If it's overcast, they call it rain.

You have cooked a dozen eggs in the trunk of your car between the grocery store and your home.

Half of your neighbors are from California and the other half are from New York.

They all moved to Nevada to avoid oppressive taxes, but now demand the same services that they had at home.

You think snow on the ground is an abstract concept.

You have forgotten how to drive on wet roads.

The local cows have been known to give powdered milk.

The trees are whistling for the dogs.

You pray “I wish it would rain. Not so much for me because I have seen it, but for my 7 year old.”  (Note: This list is shit. They have never actually lived in Nevada. We have a monsoon season. It rains every year. This is bullshit.)

You wouldn’t know what “natural” breasts look like.  (WHO THE FUCK WROTE THIS LIST?)
