After living outside of Western New York for several years now, some distinct qualities of the area come to mind when we visit.
So here is my brief list of "You might be from/in Western New York if...."
Oldies or classic rock are your go to radio stations.
"Wide Right" reminds you of what could've been.
You're Italian.
Blizzard conditions means you still go to school. And walk. Uphill. Both ways.
Snowmobiles have their own street signs.
You call the interstate the thruway.
"Garbage" reminds you of a delicious plate of food.
Your tax rate is highest in the nation (New York state quality)
If you have an apple orchard in your back yard.
Your truck rusts out faster than you can pay it off. And you're proud of it.
:)
So there you have it, my quick list to help you determine if you're truly from, or in, Western New York.
