You Know You're From Marion/Mullins When...

You know you're from Marion or Mullins when...

"How's your momma and them?" is a real question asked multiple times on a daily basis. And we are genuinely concerned about how your mother is.

The only traffic jam you experienced driving to school/work in the morning is a tractor slowing everyone up (or the train if you live in Mullins).

You know everyone you will graduate/graduated with (and still do if you're an adult living here).

You know where to find the best strawberries around.

Your best friend's dad owns the local restaurant, just ran for an office, and served as the President of the school board once or twice.

Your other best friend's mom was your favorite teacher in elementary school, and it's not weird that you spend every weekend at your teacher's house.

You get asked where you're from whenever you leave town because of that thick accent you "supposedly" have.

The tobacco leaf is your favorite flower.

You probably know the man that owns the produce stand on 76.

When explaining to people where you live, "In between Florence and Myrtle Beach" is your best option. Literally no one knows where we are, even people from South Carolina.

The Little Pee Dee River (shout out to Fork Retch) is the source of entertainment during the warm months.

If you took dance, you took it from Mrs. Emmalyn.

Your mama fixes supper with fresh vegetables you picked from the garden about an hour ago.

Everyone knows everyone and what car they drive and what church they go to and what they did last weekend (and probably what they're doing next weekend).

Fred's truly has the best fried chicken.

The Spanish moss is so beautiful on Main Street in Marion.

You wouldn't trade this quaint little small town or the wonderful people in it for the world.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.
