You May Live in Minnesota If...

-->

From time to time, I do miss home. When these moods hit, I usually get on the Google to find something relating to being at home in good ol’ Minnesota (in addition to looking at throwback pictures). Here’s something I have found online from comedian Jeff Foxworthy. Gives me a good chuckle when I’m missing you Minnesotans:

You may live in Minnesota if...

• You refuse to buy something because it is "too spendy"
• Your local Dairy Queen is closed between November through March
• Someone in the Home Depot stores offers you assistance and they don't even work there
• You have worn shorts and a jacket at the same time
• You have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who has dialed the wrong number
• "Vacation" means going anywhere near a lake
• You measure distance in hours
• You know several people who have hit a deer more than once
• You have switch from 'heat' to 'A/C' and then back again in the same day
•  You can drive 75mph (120kmh) through 2 feet (61cm) of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching
• You install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both doors unlocked
• You design your kids Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit
• The speed limit on the highway is 55mph (89kmh) - you're going 80mph (130kmh) and everyone is passing you
• Driving is better in the winter because potholes are filled
• You know all four seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter, road construction
• You find 10 degrees (-12c) a "little chilly"
• You think the ketchup is a little "too spicy"
• There are 7 empty cars running in the parking lot at any given time
• You know a "brat" is something you eat
• You can identify a Southern or Eastern accent
• If you know how to say: Shakopee, Mahtomedi, Cloquet, Edina and Wayzata
 

 

If you understand these jokes you definitely do live, or have lived, in Minnesota! 

Hope you had a good chuckle and happy finally Spring, or maybe just summer now, Minnesota!

All the best,
:D
