[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 361084, member: 1246"] YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN BAKERSFIELD, CA. WHEN...... 1. A date to the Melodrama is the "theater". 2. You have to explain to company from out of town, what animal "tri-tip" comes from and that it's indigenous to the area. 3. You buy salsa by the gallon. 4. You think a red traffic light is merely a suggestion. 5. All of your out-of-state friends start to visit after October, but clear out before the end of April. 6. You no longer associate bridges (or rivers) with water. 7. You think 6 tons of crushed rock makes a beautiful yard. 8. You notice your car overheating before you drive it. 9. You can say 115 degrees without fainting. 10. Vehicles with open windows have the right-of-way in the summer. 11. People break out coats when the temperature drops below 70. 12. You discover, in July, that it only takes two fingers to drive your car. 13. You think someone driving wearing oven mitts is clever. 14. The pool can be warmer than you are. 15. You can make sun tea instantly. 16. You run your air conditioner in the middle of winter so you can use your fireplace. 17. People with black cars or black upholstery are assumed to be from out-of-town. 18. You notice the best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance. 19. The water from the cold water tap is the same temperature as the water from the hot one. 20. You actually burn your hand opening the car door. 21. Sun screen is sold year round, kept at the front of the checkout counter, a formula less than 30 SPF is a joke, and you wear it just to go to Circle K. 22. Hot air balloons can't go up, because the air outside is hotter than the air inside. 23. And finally, no one would dream of putting vinyl upholstery in a car. [/QUOTE]
