1. Your New Jersey friends don’t pump their own gas.

Gas attendant? What’s that? You really don’t know how to pump gas? (Some do, in their defense).

2. You have a hard time explaining the type of people who live in Ohio

There are Amish people, Mormons, hillbillies…you name it and there’s someone like that in Ohio.

3. People actually give a damn about the whole state of Michigan.

I mean, I still don’t give a damn, but I guess some people do…it’s a weird experience, to be honest.

4. It doesn’t snow like it does in Cleveland.

For some reason, I thought that when I went to Delaware the weather would be like Cleveland, really snowy. But, I guess the 60 degree weather we had last week is okay too.


5. You have to tell people there’s more to Ohio than just corn

I mean, yeah, there is a lot of corn but like it’s not ALL corn.


6. There are people who don’t like Cleveland Sports.

Personally, I was shocked that there are people out there who don’t like the Cavs or the Indians or the Browns..I mean how weird is that?


7. You learn to take more pride in all the great things that come from Ohio.

From Lebron to Harambe, you constantly feel like you’re defending the great state of Ohio, even though no one really cares.

8. You will constantly have to explain why you left Ohio

Yes, I know I could’ve gone to THE Ohio State University, but I didn’t want to.

9. You will always love OSU football more than your school’s football team.

To be honest, my school’s football team sucks... like a lot. So I just root for OSU instead.


10. You miss Ohio more than you thought possible

Yeah, I love my school but there’s nothing quite like Ohio..corn fields and all.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
