You know you're from Ohio when...

Ok, so I'm from Ohio. I found this list and I think these are quite true:

  • You measure distance in minutes.
  • Your school classes were canceled because of heat.
  • You know several people who have hit a deer.
  • You've never met any celebrities.
  • You end your sentences with an unnecessary preposition. Example:"Where's my coat at?" or "If you go to the mall I wanna go with."
  • Your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to pass a tractor on the highway.
  • You know what "cow tipping" is.
  • You think everyone from a bigger city has an accent.
  • You think that deer season is a national holiday.
  • You know what a real buckeye is, and have a recipe for candy ones.
  • You say that you have to "sweep" your floors, even though they are carpeted and you are actually "vacuuming" them...
  • You say "warsh rag" instead of "wash rag" and "crick" instead of "creek".
  • You know what "pop" is.
  • Taking a "vacation" is going to Cedar Point or King's Island.
  • You say "supper" and not "dinner".
Oh yeah, someone told me I say "can" like "kin". Like, "Kin (can) you bring me that?", "Kin you get that for me?" and etc. I didn't realize I say that, but I guess I do! We don't say "ya'll", that's mostly a southern thing.
