You know you're from Idaho when...

Come on, we all do these about our home states. I'll post Idaho's as a means of representing the dozen people who live here... and the cows. Oh, the cows.



You know you're from Idaho when...

1) You complain about the traffic jam because there's one biker and two pick-ups ahead of you.

2) All the locals who have never lived outside of Idaho are shocked by your life choice as a spinster when you're 21 and not married.

3) If you don't have kids by 23, you are reminded by the town's old ladies that your biological clock is ticking.

4) Ninety per cent of the job openings are at Mexican, Italian, Japanese, or Chinese restaurants that are all run by German/Irish-Americans named Jim Bob.

5) The town is 100% aware of all of your actions the previous night, even before you wake up with a nasty hangover and enveloped in a faint smell of cow.

6) You're pretty excited when you go to a town with a Taco Bell.

7) The only winter month pastime is doing figure 8's in an icy parking lot.

8) Wal-Marts are open 24 hours. It's the go to hot spot.

9) You try to count the cows you see during a drive, but then realize that driving with your head turned back for two minutes isn't a good idea. You turn your head back in a rush, and readjust yourself to the straight road... with no one on it.

10) Only four people understand you when you make a list like this.

  1. Hahaha! Good stuff :) I'm terrible at making lists like these, otherwise I'd make one. Walmart is a hot spot here, too... I try to avoid it at all costs. I get too irritated.
