Rites of passage where you live.

To be Minnesotan:
Experience Winter when its -25C windchill in the winter.
Experience 40C/30C temp/dew-point in the summer.
Experience a smooth skin from winters "snow-blasting".
Experience skin-tightening "heat-ironing" during the summer.
Talk at a 35degree angle and never making eye-contact during a conversation.
Dismiss the conversation with an "I Suppose".
Use Soda and Pop interchangeably.
Call a drinking fountain a bubbler every now and then.
Call a bathroom a water-closet when you really have to go.
Be able to eat food of any kind with a Knife.
Wearing plaid and suspenders on casual-friday.
Drive with your hands at 4 and 8 o'clock while being ready to say hello to ppl with a slight flick of your left index finger at 11 O'clock.

Do this and you will truly have a Minnesotan rite-of-passage experience.

I think it was the parents, who had lack of Oxygen.

You can't blame the child for everything.

To be Central Valley:
Have to have your car stolen at least twice.
Suffer severe allergies for 300 out of 365 days
Always down for cheap or malt beer
Have a few tweeker acquaintances.
Always act like your shit is better than everyone else
If it's not in style, it doesn't exist.

Home fries and macaroni salad with 2 cheeseburgers on top covered in meat sauce/ketchup/mustard/onions/etc.

No wonder people here are so fat.
