You Know When You're From Colorado When...





You're from Colorado If...

You'll eat ice cream in the winter.
It snows 5 inches and you don't expect schol to be cancelled.
You'll wear flip-flops every day of the year, regardless of temperature.
You have no accent at all, but can hear other people's. And then you make fun of them.
"Humid" is over 25%.
Your sense of direction is: Toward the mountains and away from the mountains.
You say "the interstate" and everybody knows which one.
You think that May is a totally normal month for a blizzard.
You grew up planning your Halloween costumes around your coat.
You know what the Continental Divide is.
You don't think Coors beer is that big a deal.
You went to Casa Bonita as a kid.
You've gone off-roading in a vahicle that was never intended for such activities.
You always know the elevation of where you are.
You wake up to a bautiful, 80 degree day and you wonder if it's going to snow tomorrow.
Every movie theater has military and student discounts.
Everybody wears jeans to church.
You actually know that South Park is a real place not just a show on T.V.
You know what a "trust fund hippy" is, and you know its natural habitat is Boulder.
You know you're talking to a fellow Coloradoan when they call it Elitches, not Six Flags.
A bear on your front porch doesn't bother you.
Your two favorite teams are the Broncos, and whoever is beating the Raiders.
You've been to the original Chipolte near the DU campus on Evans.
When people out East tell you they have mountains in their state too, you just laugh.
You to anywher else on the planet and the air feels "sticky" and you notice the sky is no longer blue.
