Geography beyond Brooklyn is a mystery to you 4. You were a part of the NYC public school system at some time in your life 5. Anyone who has an accent and lives outside of NYC sounds 'country'. 6.

If you agree with this statement: "God have mercy on the person that looks at you funny on the street" 10. You're used to police sirens and ambulances at night. 11.

You own any of the following: A Northface, a pair of tims or a pair of Jordans 17.You eva hopped on tha $1 van 18. You only trust Dominicans with your hair regime 19. Your idea of the mall is Fordham Road, Fulton Street, Jamaica Ave, 125th or 8th Street 20. You don't have a driver's license 21. You remember when Dr. Dre and Ed Lova was on Hot 97 22.
