If you grew up Massachusetts, you’ve been a victim of a few stereotypes that us Massachusian’s have developed over the years. No, not all of us are reckless drivers, and no, not all of us are heartless creatures who binge drink with funny accents. We’ve heard the all stereotypes before so if you mention anything from the list below, expect a good ol’ “Masshole” response.
Do you pahk the cah in the havahd yahd?
No, it’s actually illegal to park in the Havard yard… Actually yeah why don’t you go park there right now.
So, you’re a Masshole?
Yup, guess so. Wanna see my Massachusetts Salute?
Boston sports fans are spoiled.
No, we know we’re good, and trust us, we’re appreciative.
Do you ever go to Beantown?
You mean, BOSTON? No one from here calls it Beantown.
Where are you from? Never heard of it. Is it near Boston?
Please refer to this map:
How come you don’t have a Boston accent?
Here’s a thought; because I’m not from Boston!
Why are you so obsessed with Dunkin Donuts?
I just am. Dunkies for life.
The Patriots are cheaters.
10-1, you hate us cuz you ain’t us.
Why do you walk and talk so fast?
Why do you walk and talk so slow?
You talk funny.
It’s how I was raised. I eat supper, not dinner. I drink from a bubbler, not a water fountain, and wicked is an adjective that doesn’t mean “bad.” Get over it.
You are terrible drivers.
Okay, so maybe the speed limit to us is 10 to 15 mph over the posted speed, but we can get you somewhere in half the time so who’s the real winner here?
