You know you're from Upstate NY when . . .
(Some amazing similarities to PA people...)
You only have 3 spices-salt, pepper and ketchup
You design your Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
Mosquitoes have landing lights
You have more miles on your snowblower than your car
You have 10 favorite recipes for venison
True Value Hardware is busier on any given Saturday than a toy store at Christmas
You live in a house with no front steps and the front door is 3
feet above the ground
You have been trick or treating in a blizzard
Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled in with snow
You think everyone from the city has an accent
You think sexy lingerie is tube socks and a flannel nightgown with only 8 buttons.
You owe more money on your snowmobile than on your car
At least twice a year your kitchen doubles as a food processing plant
Most effective mosquito repellent is a shotgun
You get your snowblower stuck on the roof
You think the start of deer season is a national holiday ( well isn't it?)
You frequently clean the grease off your barbecue to keep the bears from prowling on your deck
You know which leaves make good toilet paper
You have kept food cold by putting on the back porch
The mayor greets you on the street by your first name
There is only one shopping plaza in town
You find -20F a little chilly
The trunk of your car doubles as a deep freeze
You attend a formal event in your best clothes and finest jewelry and snowmobile boots
You play road hockey on skates.
Shoveling the driveway constitutes a great upper body workout.
You know the 4 seasons-almost winter, winter, still winter and construction
The town buys a zamboni before a bus
You actually get these jokes and forward them to your Upstate NY friends.
