You know you live in the country if......

... your 5 tiny (7 lb.) lil dogs start barking furiously at the kitchen door and when you let them out the the vicious barking continues only worse.

Checking the situation out you find they've managed to tree a small black bear that has had the misfortune of entering their yard and requires immediate rescue from your little monsters.

HINT: DO NOT leave kibble outside over night!:

I'm out of reps....thanks for that one...I vote this post best in the thread.

At least it is of the ones I've read, and that is most. Been here for a while. Longer than my join date. As far back as Overgrow.

...maybe I'm not an OG, but I was there. When overgrow was there, along with Shabang who wrote code to make that site. I miss those days....some 15 years ago. I'm getting a bit old to argue...seems all I did today.

I posted more today than I should, normally I stick to reading. But since I'm on a post roll. I thought it more than proper to write this note first...

AND.....Cosmic since it's your post and my response to it is what's most important....

The above post is one of the smartest, funny posts written anywhere...kudos!!! I'm coping it. Against the rules, but I won't sell it, but I will tell it to my friends and only a few at that, as none know I even go to this site. I'm not smart enough to write your joke and I can't say where I have read it.

peace

...... why thank you kind Sir, can you really tell I really like living in the country????

It's a whole different level of 'excitement' than what you find in the big cities!!!!

No drive by shootings, no corner drug dealers.....

I moved from a large city to a small town. Put it this way there were more people in my senior class than my current town. That being said, you know when you live in the country if... The mail person drives their own car for the route.

When you can't bring home a bucket of chicken, because it doesn't stay crispy from the drive. Nor does taking the wife to KFC count as "going out."

pretty much the same in the suburbs.

I think it's a universal law.

You start to ration the toilet paper cause you don't want to go to town for another month.

 

[GainGreene]

You know damn well that your from the country if... You know the difference between the different "dollar stores." Dollar Tree being the true every item is a dollar store.

You know you live in the country if...... Uber is not a option

 

[Bud Green]

You know you live in the country if...... you don't even know what an uber is.....


Umm, what is it, and why isn't it an option for me?..

 

[DuskrayTroubador]

If there was anything else on the road, you'd wreck all the time because you're constantly looking out off the side of the road and saying "Wow, somebody really oughta figure out a way to put some pot plants there."

 

[rockymountainJ]

You dig a new hole every few years for the good ole outhouse...... because yeah.... your ass is sitting in there at 20 below this winter!!

uber is a city thing.. people use their own cars to 'taxi' you to you destination. Like a taxi would..
and like me, youre old and don't care.

When I was young. We had a form of Uber. Wher I walked in the door. My mother would say on tuesday you need to go to Mrs. ____ or Mr. ___ house and give them a ride to the Dr. or what ever.

With Mrs. ____ when I pulled up she had a1954 Cadalic Eldarado Convertible. Let's take my car she said. I was about to bust with excitement and scared to death. In those days cars were alyays parked inside. Kept clean and polished.

It looked brand new. I was so proud to drive that car. I would grin like an idiot all the way through town.

I would sit in the waiting room until she was ready to go. Drive her home and get 2 dozen eggs for my time.
