You know You are from Indiana When...

1. You can properly pronounce Indianapolis, DeKalb, Winamac, Pulaski, and Lafayette.

2. You think people who complain about the heat in their states are sissies.

3. A tornado warning siren is your signal to go out in the yard and look for a funnel.

4. You know that the true value of a parking space is not determined by the distance to the door, but by the availability of shade.

5. Stores don't have sacks or buggies, they have bags and shopping carts.

6. You've seen people wear bib overalls at weddings and funerals.

7. You think everyone from a Southern state has an accent.

8. You measure distance in minutes.

9. You go to the lake because you think it is like going to the ocean.

10. You listen to the weather forecast before picking out an outfit.

11. You know cow pies are not made of beef.

12. Someone you know has used a football schedule to plan their wedding date.

13. You know someone who has a belt buckle bigger than your fist.

14. Almost everyone you know is either Baptist or Methodist.

15. A Mercedes Benz isn't a status symbol. A Chevy Silverado Extended Bed Crew Cab is.

16. You know everything goes better with Ranch dressing.

Gotta love the quaintness.

#5 Buggies??? WTF?
I am in total agreement, though, with 1, 3, 10, 11, 15, and of course 16.

Yeah, the yellow and red "buggies" the kids can ride in with the fake steering wheels and that small cart on TOP for the groceries...LOL.
