You know you're from Tennessee if:
1. You measure distance in minutes.
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 "
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.
6. You know what a "VOL" is.
7. You carry jumper cables in your car...for your OWN car.
9. You only own four spices: salt, pepper, Tabasco and catsup.
10. The local papers cover national and international news on
one page but require 6 pages for local gossip and sports.
11. You think that the first day of deer season is a national
holiday.
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.
15. Going to Wal-mart is a favorite past time known as"goin'
Wal-martin" or off to "Wally World".
16. You describe the first cool snap (below 70 degrees) as good
pinto-bean weather.
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?"
18. Fried catfish is the other white meat.
19. You understand these jokes and forward them to your friends
from Tennessee (and those who just wish they were). Not EVERYONE can
be
a Tennessean, it's an art form! and a gift from God!
Yep thats where i live and a bunch of those are true. im not saying which ones. My poison ivy is gross still. i type this with one hand, the other holding an ice pack to my swollen face.
