You go to a karaoke bar and battle with seven year old divas-in-training who are trying to steal your thunder (lol wtf)

You're sitting in traffic for at least an hour at any given part of the day (yups)

You go to the beach and see that real lifeguards actually do look like the lifeguards from Baywatch (hee hee)

You see purple and gold and the word "Threepeat" on every corner (not no more )

You begin to "lie" to your friends about where you are (i.e. "Yeah I'm like 20 minutes away") - when you know that it'll take you at least an hour to get there). (HA! so true!)

You eat a different ethnic food for every meal (not really, unless im out)

You really can never be too rich or too thin. (too rich no; too thin, yes)

It's sprinkling and there's a report on every news station about "STORM WATCH '99" (lmao)

You call 911 and they put you on hold. (dunno)

You have to leave the big company meeting early because Billy Blanks himself is teaching the 4:30 tae-bo class. (who the hell is billy blanks?)

The three hour traffic jam you just sat through wasn't caused by a horrific 9 car pile-up, but by everyone slowing to rubberneck at a lost shoe lying on the shoulder. (lol dumb shit happens)

A nurse can look at you in all seriousness and ask, "you don't drink or smoke, right?" (lmfao)

All the "cool gyms" allow pedestrians on the street a full-view of those working out. Literally, you can't drive by Wilshire without staring into L.A. Fitness. Perhaps a new form of window shopping? (lmfao so true)

pineapple on pizza must be the most moronic suggestion ever put to life in the last 10 centuries. the average pizza is supposed to consist of the bread, tomato sauce, one meat topping (ham, beef, minced meat, bacon as a last resort) and cheese. you may play with a few neutral adding toppings like for instance peppers, tomato, onion, and so forth. pineapple does not taste good mixed with cheese. it does not taste good mixed with tomato sauce. pineapple doesn't taste good if you sprinkle it over a meat dish, does it? i never tried pineapple on my bread, but unless that is a killer combo i see no reason why someone would put pineapple on their pizza unless someone trip and fell and accidentally dropped some pineapple pieces that were meant for the dessert into the pizza sauce without noticing, then serving the pizza to a retard who started laughing and crying when it tasted pineapples on the pizza.

Atlanta is known as "The City."

You know the difference between a hillbilly, a redneck, and a Southerner.

The one way to be killed in .5 seconds is to talk about somebody's mama or talk bad to somebody's mama.

Krispy Kreme dounuts are the only kind of dounuts you eat.

Fried chicken is a major part of your diet.

When the Goverment started telling people to stock up on duck tape, you were waaaaaaaaaay ahead of them.

You know people who consider a six pack and a bug zapper quality entertainment.

[Amara]

Krispy Kreme donuts are the only kind of donuts you eat.

Georgia, I'm on my way!

I'm not deterred. Pineapple = good. One thing I hate though is onion on the pizza. I dont see the point of onion in or on any food.

 

[critikaldesignz]

I'm fine with pineapple on pizza, it adds sweetness to pizza, which makes your meal more appetizing.
