You might be a Yankee if:
-you need two hands to display your World Series Rings
-If you look hot in blue and white pinstripes
-You lift up your shoe and find a Boston fan stuck underneath
-Winning the divison is simpy not enough
-people refer to you and you freinds as "The Big Apple team that doesn't Suck"
Oh that's not what you meant by Yankee....
GO YANKEES!!!!!

Re: You might be a Yankee...
Yes and could go along as to say bbq chickenKelly Antilles wrote:1. You think barbecue is a verb meaning "to cook outside."
Far from it. Oriental spice is da bomb.2. You think Heinz Ketchup is SPICY!
I do have a problem pronouncing it.3. You don't have any problems pronouncing "Worcestershire sauce" correctly.
NO WAY!4. You eat fried chicken with a knife and fork.
I've seen chickens on my Grandma's little farm and yes I saw cows while riding Amtrak in California.5. You've never seen a live chicken, and the only cows you've seen are on road trips
Yup.6. You have no idea what a polecat is.
Keeps the lil guy warm doesn't it?7. You don't see anything wrong with putting a sweater on a poodle.
Yea with a ready rope for hanging.8. You would rather vacation at Martha's Vineyard than Six Flags.
Connecta who?9. More than two generations of your family have been kicked out of the same prep school in Connecticut.
Yup10. Instead of referring to two or more people as "y'all," you call them "you guys," even if both of them are women.
Never actually listen to that guy.11. You don't think Howard Stern has an accent.
I don't even know the last time i smiled12. The last time you smiled was when you prevented someone from getting on an on-ramp on the highway.
Nope13. The farthest south you've ever been is the perfume counter at Neiman Marcus.
NO WAY14. You call binoculars opera glasses.
I try and aim for the next car speeding up to my.15. You can't spit out the car window without pulling over to the side of the road and stopping.
Errr?16. You would never wear pink or an applique sweatshirt.
That's right.17. You don't know what applique is.
*hiccup* yup.18. You don't have doilies, and you certainly don't know how to make one.
Not if it's a hot chick19. You get freaked out when people on the subway talk to you.
My own washing machine I have here. But if it's a big load then off to the laundrymat it goes!!20. You can't do your laundry without quarters.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

It's also an adjective, as in, 'Barbacue Sauce'1. You think barbecue is a verb meaning "to cook outside."
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH2. You think Heinz Ketchup is SPICY!
Wistersheer. See? Easy.3. You don't have any problems pronouncing "Worcestershire sauce" correctly.
You grill chicken, you don't fry it.4. You eat fried chicken with a knife and fork.
If I wanted to see exotic wildlife, I'd go the Philadelphia Zoo.5. You've never seen a live chicken, and the only cows you've seen are on road trips
See above.6. You have no idea what a polecat is.
If you even own a poodle, might as well go the whole nine yards.7. You don't see anything wrong with putting a sweater on a poodle.
I would rather buttfuck myself with a spatula leaking hot grease than vacation at Six Flags.8. You would rather vacation at Martha's Vineyard than Six Flags.
I can't even find Conneticut on the map.9. More than two generations of your family have been kicked out of the same prep school in Connecticut.
Yous. YOUS guys.10. Instead of referring to two or more people as "y'all," you call them "you guys," even if both of them are women.
Come to think of it, he has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.11. You don't think Howard Stern has an accent.
And then I saw some idiot who had pulled a 180 on the world's biggest parking lot and ended up backing into the lane dividers. The on-ramp was just an added bonus.12. The last time you smiled was when you prevented someone from getting on an on-ramp on the highway.
If you even visit Neiman Marcus, see number seven.13. The farthest south you've ever been is the perfume counter at Neiman Marcus.
You made that up.14. You call binoculars opera glasses.
Philistine.15. You can't spit out the car window without pulling over to the side of the road and stopping.
Maybe if I dressed up my poodles and visited Neiman Marcus.16. You would never wear pink or an applique sweatshirt.
I bet you made that up, too.17. You don't know what applique is.
18. You don't have doilies, and you certainly don't know how to make one.
If you've accumulated sweater-wearing poodles, Neiman Marcus perfume, and pink sweatshirts, I don't think doilies are going to make much difference.
Because usually they're masked, screaming, and waving automatic weapons.19. You get freaked out when people on the subway talk to you.
20. You can't do your laundry without quarters.
Yes, you can. You just have to be really clever about it.

We're not bashing Southerners because we don't want to get any on us.
