ONWARD: Kentucky-isms

By Jennifer Anderson



If you have ever fixed your hair into some form of ponytail everyday for a month,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If it is late October but you still hear the constant sounds of people mowing their yard,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If it is too warm to wear the new coat you got for Christmas no more then a few times before Spring,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If you often find yourself driving around in the country lost and looking for somewhere you are supposed to be,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If in the summer people give you free tomatoes, corn, zucchini, or beans,
     you might be in Kentucky.

If you are not even sure what pesto sauce is,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If you have a college degree but still have to work in a factory,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If you dog is free to roam wherever it wants to go,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If your dog mostly stays outdoors and not inside, "because it is a dog",
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If the dog poops outside all it wants and no one ever even thinks about possibly scooping or picking it up,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If you grew up shooting hoops,
     then you might be from Kentucky.

If you see an alarming number of people wearing some form of camouflage
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If you are poor and spend most of your free time going to church activities and to ballgames,
     then you might be in Kentucky.

If you are rich but STILL spend most of your free time going to church activities and attending ballgames,
     then you might be in Kentucky.
