You know you live in Cleobury when you can hear the sounds of a drunk person trying to get home.
...at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

You know you're probably in Napoli, Italy, when there's dead bodies lying in the streets right next to huge piles of rubbish, and nobody seems to care. Being appalled, shocked and being bothered by it marks you as a person of poor spirit and a killjoy.

The trash issue seems to involve politics and some sort of mafia-type criminal organization, so it isn't exactly easily discussed. Maybe the dead people asked too many questions, who knows.

Imagine how them Canadians must feel as they scoff at us and go outside in shorts in that kind of weather! :D
I rode my motorcycle in minus 6 degrees Celsius with nothing but jeans and a bunnyhug today, 40 degree F is nothing to us Yetis.

You know you are in Saskatchewan when you can see the curvature of the Earth no matter what direction you face.

So many fellow Australians on this site... we have such a huge gaming culture here, yet our industry is so stagnant...

You know you're in Australia when the floods put out the bushfires.


Yes, this happened to me.
No, I wasn't bitten.
Yes, I killed it with a work boot.

Would Ireland be better, cause there's north and south? Though, different nations/parts of.

Geographically yeah.

Was more referring in the sense that foreigners sometimes call the United Kingdom England just like they call the Netherlands Holland. Don't think I've ever heard the UK referred to as Ireland.

You know you live in Southern California when you've gotten bored of the weather being sunny and 70 degrees every day. Because in Southern California, even when its raining it's still sunny and 70 degrees.

You know you live in Spain when people are obnoxiously loud and try to tell you about the latest football match when you've repeatedly told them you don't really give a damn about football.

You know you live in Perth (Australia) when...

People ask what time the bus will be and you say it'll be 5-10 minutes late anyway
and it actually comes twenty minutes late...

You know you are in japan when you see people lining up politely, and at the end of the line you have a talking toilet that washes and dries your private areas.

You know you live in the Netherlands when there's more cyclists than cars no the road.

Gets crazy around universities especially. 50+ cyclists crammed before a single red light.
suddenly i like Norway...
seriously most English hate cycling -.- i'm all alone.[/quote]

Norway =/= Netherlands, like one person already said.

You know you live in The Netherlands when you cannot comprehend someone being unable to swim.
I just can't. How can you NOT be able to swim? How?

You know you're in San Francisco when you see openly gay couples out in broad day light... seriously, even in the rest of California that doesn't happen... I used to live in Sacramento which is only like an hour drive away and even the air there is thick with homophobia...<.>

you know you're in England when; if anything happens the first thing to do is make tea.
To be a tad more specific:

You know you're from Yorkshire when someone gets stabbed, and sleeps it off.

This has happened twice within my family. Once, when someone tried to mug me, and once when my dad got really drunk in Christmas. He woke up on Boxing Day with the stem of a wineglass sticking out of him.

You know you live in England when people complain about things but never do anything about it.
