To most people, St. Louis seems like a completely different world. But to us, our quirks are better than other city's quirks. Here are ten quirks only a true St. Louisan will know.

1. It's Bread Co, not Panera

The first Panera originated in St. Louis and was called the St. Louis Bread Company. Another company then bought Bread Co, making the chain widespread and changing the name. However, in St. Louis, the name is still Bread Co.

2. Provel cheese is the best cheese

Provel is a special blend of white cheddar, mozarella, and provolone, that is seriously heaven. St. Louis style pizza is made with provel, and honestly it's the best pizza.

3. "What high school did you go to?"

Seriously, where you went to high school is a big deal. Every high school has a stereotype, and where you went to high school says a lot about yourself.

4. You're a part of the best fan base in sports

Cardinals and Blues fans are seriously the best fans in sports. Almost every game is sold out, we cheer like crazy, and we will support our teams no matter what. Our athletes say it, and even other teams say it: we are the best fan base in sports.

5. We invented some of the best food

Ever heard of toasted raviolis or gooey butter cake? Yeah, they were invented here and are staples on almost every menu throughout the city.

6. The best place to get ice cream is obviously Ted Drew's

Technically it's frozen custard, but it's seriously the best ice cream and is a true St. Louis staple. This place is PACKED after every Cardinals and Blues game, and was recently voted the best ice cream in the world.

7. Most of us don't really live in St. Louis, we live in the suburbs

I don't really live in the city of St. Louis, but I always say that's where I'm from because it's easier than saying your county and having people give you a confused look because they have no idea where that is.

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. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. 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.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
