  1. You forget squirrels aren’t always black.
  2. Bagpipes make you tear up.
  3. You dread crossing the street for lunch.
  4. You consider french fries a full meal.
  5. You own something in bright yellow tartan.
  6. You actually wear the thing in bright yellow tartan.
  7. You remember the first time a stressed senior told you to get out of their carrel.

  16. You get annoyed when people say “Woo-ster”.
