you know your from texas when:
*You can properly pronounce Corsicana, Ennis, Waxahachie, Palestine, Decatur, Wichita Falls, San Antonio, Waco, and Amarillo.
*A tornado warning siren is your signal to go out in the yard and look for a funnel.
*You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.
*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.
*You think everyone from a bigger city has an accent.
***You get asked "are there really deserts every where"
****You measure distance in minutes. *
*Little Smokies are something you serve only for special occasions.
*You listen to the weather forecast before picking out an outfit.
*You know cowpies are not made of beef.
*Someone you know has used a football schedule to plan their wedding date.
*You have known someone who has had one belt buckle bigger than your fist.
*You have a belt buckle that big.
*You aren't surprised to find movie rental, ammunition, and bait all in the same store.
*A Mercedes Benz is not a status symbol. A Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 is.
*You know everything goes better with Ranch.
*You go to the river/lake because you think it is like going to the
ocean.
*You go to the gas station and there is a sign in the window that reads, "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service!"
*Your family pet is the stray dog with one leg that came limping up to your door.
*You say "Up-their" when you are refering to a place "Over there".
***** You say "yall" as if it was normal.*
****You get made fun of for the way you talk.*
*People always ask you if you own a horse and ride it to school.
*You get asked if you say "howdy"
*the weather can be sunny one day...rainy another and snowy the next.
***You actually get these jokes and are "fixin' " to send them to your friends.**
***Finally you are 100% Texan if you have ever heard this conversation:
"You wanna coke?"
"Yeah."
"What kind?"
"Dr. Pepper."
