You know you're from Ohio if...



You only own 3 spices: Salt, pepper and ketchup.

You design your kids' Halloween costumes to fit over a

    snowsuit.

You have more miles on your snowblower than your car.

Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are

    filled with snow.

You think everyone from bigger cities has an accent.

You think sexy lingerie is tube socks and a flannel nightie.

You owe more money on your snowblower than you do on your car.

Your snowblower gets stuck on your roof.

The local paper covers national and international headlines

    on 1/4 of a page, but requires 6 pages for sports.

You think that deer season is a national holiday.

You know which leaves make good toilet paper.

You find 20 degrees below zero "a little chilly".

You know all the four seasons: Winter, Still Winter, Almost

    Winter, and Construction.

You know what a real buckeye is, and have a recipe for 

    candy ones.

You know if another Ohioan is from southern, middle or

    northern Ohio as soon as they open their mouth.

You can spell words like Cuyahoga and Tuscarawas.

You know that Serpent Mounds were not made by snakes.

You actually get these jokes and forward them to all your 

    Ohio friends.

And you all laugh at them together.
