1. When it comes to coffee, it’s Dunkies all the way.
2. There’s nothing you love more than a steaming cup of New England clam chowdah (especially if it’s served in a bread bowl).
Manhattan chowder? Please.
3. You always coat your ice cream with a generous helping of jimmies…
4. …unless, of course, you opt for an ice cream frappe.
5. You know that a great Italian meal calls for a trip to the North End…
…and that the meal will only be complete with a cannoli from Mike’s Pastry.
6. There’s nothing you love more than hating on the MBTA…
7. …yet you can’t even imagine leaving your house without your trusty Charlie Card.
8. And while you hate riding the Green line during rush hour…
…this is how you end up feeling pretty much any time you ride the Red, Blue, or Orange lines.
9. The Silver line? Forget it. That’s a complete mystery to you.
10. You’ve pretty much accepted that winter lasts from mid-October to April.
11. After experiencing your fair share of Boston winters, you would consider this just a light dusting of snow.
12. You know that Newbury Street is the best place for shopping (or, at least, window shopping)…
13. …but you still can’t decide who has the best cupcakes. (Georgetown Cupcakes? Sweet Cupcakes? You’ll just take them all.)
14. If you’re looking to snag a cute guy in a suit, you know to head to State Street to scope out the Financial District.
15. And when you need a cheap drink, you’re sure to head to Sissy K’s or Coogans for some $1 beers.
16. One place you’ll never be found: Cheers. You’re no tourist!
17. Speaking of tourists, these are the bane of your existence:
18. As well as the performers in Faneuil Hall.
19. But you still find historical reenactment tours pretty funny.
20. Even if you don’t like baseball, you’re a devoted Red Sox fan.
21. And you know that Fenway is the best baseball stadium in the world.
22. Even if you just go for a Fenway Frank.
23. And nothing picks you up like the sounds of “Sweet Caroline” during the eighth inning.
24. You also love the Bs…
25. …as well as the Cs.
26. One of your favorite days is the day of The Charles River Food Truck Festival,
27. which is only rivaled by the day of the Head of the Charles Regatta (to check out all those cute crew boys).
28. And you wouldn’t dream of missing Restaurant Week. #NOM.
29. You can parallel park like a pro…
30. …and rotaries don’t even faze you.
31. You know that no city can celebrate Saint Paddy’s Day better.
32. You will always have a special place in your heart for the Dropkick Murphys.
33. You know that no matter where life takes you, you will always remain Boston Strong.
