When I read this, I couldn't help but laugh at how true these are....
You Might Be from a Small Town If ...
1. You can name everyone you graduated with.
2. You know what 4-H is.
3. You ever went to a party at a pasture or barn or in the middle of a dirt road.
4. You used to drag "Main."
5. You said a swear word or held hands with your honey and your parents knew within the hour.
6. You ever went cow-tipping or snipe hunting.
7. It was cool to date someone from the neighboring town.
8. The whole school went to the same party after graduation.
9. You don't give directions by street names but by references (turn by Nelson's house, go two blocks east of Anderson's, and it's four houses left of the track field).
10. Your car stays filthy because of the dirt roads, and you will never own a dark vehicle for this reason.
11. The town next to you is considered "trashy" or "snooty," but is actually just like your town.
12. You refer to anyone with a house newer than 1950 as the "rich people." And people who have lived in the town less than 50 years as "newcomers."
13. The people in the city dress funny, and then you pick up on the trend two years later.
14. You bragged to your friends because you got pipes on your truck for your birthday.
15. Anyone you want can be found at either the Dairy Queen or the feed store.
16. You see at least one friend a week driving a tractor through town.
17. Football coaches suggest that you haul hay for the summer to get stronger.
18. Directions are given using "the" stop light as a reference (or "the" stop sign).
19. The city council meets at the coffee shop.
20. You have ever ridden your horse or taken your dog to school on a daily basis.
21. Weekend excitement involves a trip to the five and dime.
22. You decide to walk somewhere and five neighbors or friends pull over and ask if you need a ride.
23. Your teachers call you by your older siblings' names.
24. Your teachers remember when they taught your parents.
25. The closest McDonald's is 45 miles away.
26. So is the closest mall.
27. It is normal to see one of your neighbors riding through town on a riding lawn mower.
28. You laugh like crazy reading this because you know these are all true,
