Comment the city you grew up in, and I will make an assumption about you!

You were born and raised a YANKEES FAN?
@DrWatson

@XenonRush My father was a big Yankees fan. I went to a couple of games -- one was at the stadium that people today call "the old Yankee Stadium", and one was at the stadium before that one!

But when we were living on Long Island, the NY Mets were created, and I was a Mets fan from their very first atrocious season.

Nowadays, I do not follow sports much at all.

You like going to real old-school diners?

@saragoodtimes

@saragoodtimes

SGT, remember a few years ago when Farliegh Dickinson made the Sweet 16? Then reality hit them like a sledge hammer when hey faced Gonzaga.

I went to college, and played baseball with their coach Greg Herenda

@Thrust yea was their main campus in Teaneck. although big Madison isn't the main

@XenonRush only a few words

How widely is it actually spoken?
@KiwiDan

@XenonRush not super widely. More than the indigenous languages of other colonised nations maybe, but still not everywhere. Maybe as popular as French in Canada - some use it, and it's used in media, but it's not the most spoken

You love In-N-Out Burgers?

@DeWayfarer

@XenonRush I refuse to even go there.

Not that there's one in this whole-in-the-wall city.

Fortunately INO isn't a big chain BTW

You're more likely to find a Carl's Jr in all the cities I have lived in.

INO likes to make themselves a whole lot bigger, than they really are. Limit the stores, so those stores all look busy.

Nice little Christian brainwashing trick. Force the customer to you to look popular, when you're not popular.

@XenonRush alas yes 😆

I guess the closest word an American would use for “bogan” would be “redneck”?


Also, I bet you know the words to the song “Walzting Matilda”?
@SW-User

@XenonRush yes redneck is the equivalent

Please don't pull out all the cliched Australian stuff it makes me nauseous

You played beach cricket before?
@theweekdy

@XenonRush good lord how’d you know

Let me guess, after you guys played beach cricket, you and your mates all went out to a pub for pints?

@theweekdy

@pride49 What is that?

Is Tom Brady not considered a hero in Boston?! 🤯
@Micro

@XenonRush Yes! He's definitely one of the many legends in New England. Know let me try to figure something about you. Where are you from?

You’ve been to the Kentucky Derby, or know someone who has?
@boklenholley7

@XenonRush nope haha there's lots of Lexingtons in lots of states: Alabama, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maryland (Lexington Park), Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Washington.

You NEVER EVER EVER EVER put ketchup on a hotdog?
@deadgerbil

@XenonRush I usually do

A native Chicagoan, who puts KETCHUP ON A HOTDOG?!?! 🤯. Do people look at your weird when you do?

@deadgerbil

You know someone who is, or knows someone who is a farmer?

@tiggerandariel13

You have waited in Boston traffic for more than 2 hours before?
@TrashCat

@XenonRush I have waited inBoston Traffic for 6 hours 🤣🤣🤣

But thats OK.... I was drunk at the time and by the time we started moving I had sobered up

@XenonRush only like 3.5 hours which isn't too bad. but unless you plan on hiking there's not too much to do once you're there lol.

How about this one…

You shake your shoes to check your shoes each morning for scorpions hiding in them?@Frostcloud

@XenonRush i used to leave my work shoes outside and would check them but then... decided if im meant to get stung then i'll get stung lol

There could be a small earthquake, and you wouldn’t even notice it?

@Notsimilarreally

If I say the phrase “closed for storm”, you know exactly where that is written on a sign?

@Straylight

@XenonRush
Yes it is Czech

Do you have a beer fridge at your house?
@Thrust

@XenonRush Nah. Barely a regular one

You know someone who works for Wal-Mart?
@TurtlePink

@TrashCat Which is part of why I hated it,haha. But looking back I gots some prime edu-macation and cultural opportunities,yup. Plus mom's little spot sure has risen in value from the 60ish thou she paid back in the day.

Those Dartmouth college boys look good in shorts 😍

You know pretty much everyone in the community you grew up in?
@ViciDraco

That should be a crime lol
@SW-User

@XenonRush Go get them and tell them to use their hands. ... !

@DrWatson

You’ve been to a Jewish-Owned deli before for a huge pastrami sandwich?
@DragonFruit

@XenonRush True on the friends. Moving was just part of life…🤷🏻‍♀

Was it hard always moving?
@FlowersInHerHair

@XenonRush I never really gave it much thought. It was just how things were. On the plus side?? I’ve never been a hoarder 😁

Good Job! Without looking it up, can you name the biggest Italian speaking city in Switzerland?

@Elessar

@XenonRush I can bake the canton (Ticino) but not specific cities 😅

@Anniedlr what about the imposter in Ohio?

@pride49 Never been there but like us it has a good university 😂

You speak English and French fluently?

You’d want to see Québec separate and become independent?
@pikminboy

@XenonRush no , i like canada the way it is. Separating might be good for the identity feeling. But i would stay like this

You eat crawfish?
@Cherry2

@XenonRush absolutely. I haven’t been home in ages

@XenonRush nah I always threw it in the donation thing before you left, but I do use the card to clean the algae off of the glass of my aquarium

Is Canadian Tire a good store?
@caccoon

@Lilymoon

@XenonRush ummm yep

@Thrust yes hahaha i was born in the 2000s so i missed it but i still like seeing the wings even tho they suck, i went to a few games this year but they’ve lost everytime😭

You think Buc-ee’s is the best gas station ever?
@SJones48

@XenonRush yes but I don’t go there often

You have been to the now torn-down Candlestick Park?

@bijouxbroussard

@XenonRush I’ve passed by, but I don’t live near there. I did go to games with my parents occasionally, when I was small.
