Once A Bostonian, Always A Bostonian

No quite understands the way of Boston unless you've grown up there. These are things only people from Boston will truly understand.

1. We don't go to Dunkin Donuts, we go to "Dunks" to get our favorite coffee.


2. You're not heading to Cape Cod for the weekend, you're heading to the Cape.

3. No one can celebrate Saint Patty's day the way we do.

4. You cannot acutally Pahk ya cah in Hahvad yahd (Park your car in Harvard Yard).

5. Do not mention the Yankees. Period.

6. The Green Monster is our favorite monster.


7. A regular coffee is not black coffee, it's coffee with cream and sugar.


8. You don't have to ask if anyone is Irish... everyone in Boston is part Irish.


9. Don't be surprised when everyone you meet speaks like a trucker.


10. No one can take pride in all of their sports the way Bostonians do.


11. We aren't bad drivers, we just don't feel the need to follow all of the rules of the road.


12. It's normal to have snow through May.


13. Don't try to copy the Boston accent... You'll just sound like an idiot.


14. We raise great actors.


15. As well as film the best movies.


16. Yes, south Boston is called Southie (Good beer and Irishmen are found here).


17. We love our Chowdah.


18. We are always right. Even when we are wrong, we are still right.

19. Best mode of transportation is the T.


20. Once a Bostonian, always a Bostonian.
