Top 20 Signs You Know
You're From Philadelphia, PA.
20. You realize that your favorite desert is
wooder ice. (It comes in churry, strawburry, and other assawrded flaverz.)
19. You find yourself using "Yo" and
"Youse guys" when talking long distance to family members.
18. You know how to spell Schuylkill.
17. You think $2,500 a year for insurance on a
1977 Toyota Corolla is a bargain.
16. You find yourself at a nice restaurant
thinking, "I wonder if they have cheese steaks?"
15. You can sleep soundly through gunfire and
ambulance sirens.
14. You visit New York and are impressed by how
clean it is.
13. You believe the car on your left, flashing
its turn signal and the driver pointing at your lane, wants you to close
the gap with the car in front of you.
12. You can't eat french fries without Cheeze
Whiz.
11. Street people greet you by your first name.
10. You don't think Wawa sounds funny.
9. You snub a cheese steak that isn't on an
Amoroso roll.
8. Your parents, brother, sisters, aunts, and
uncles all live on the same block.
7. You know who Jim O'Brien is and how he died.
6. You can't imagine breakfast without
scrapple.
5. You're still not sure about Jerry
Penacolli.
4. A vacation at the Jersey shore (pronounced
"the shoore") is better than going to an island. (There's more
stuff to do, plus you know everybody.)
3. You know where to find the Rocky statue.
2. You know only tourists go to Geno's, Pat's,
and Jim's for authentic cheese steaks... You only go if you're drunk and
it is 3:00 AM.
And The Number One Sign You Know You're From
Philly:
1. You buy a soft pretzel at a traffic light,
without wondering where the guy goes to wash his hands, And you don't
really care.
