Yo Kemble,
I just got this and had to pass it along.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE FROM PHILLY WHEN....
22. You hate the Cowboys.
21. You realize your favorite dessert is "wooder ice" (that would be "water
ice" for those who don't know, it comes in churry, strawburry and other
assawred flaverz).
20. You know how to spell Schuylkill.
19. You pronounce ACME as "ACK - A - ME".
18. You find yourself using "Yo" and "Youse guys" when talking long distance
to your family members.
17. You think $2,500 a year for car insurance on a 1987 Toyota Corrolla 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 sirens.
14. You visit New York City and are impressed by how clean it is.
13. You believe the car on your left, with the turn signal flashing 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 Cheez 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, brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles 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 down the Jersey shore
(pronounced "down da 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's 3:00 a.m.
AND THE NUMBER ONE SIGN THAT YOU'RE FROM PHILLY ..... You buy a soft pretzel
at a traffic light without wondering where the guy goes to wash his hands and
you don't! care!!
PASS THIS ON AND SHOW YOUR PHILLY PRIDE!! |
