things I find myself explaining time and time again

Basic Math
finding 10%, 15%, 18% and percent change shit.

The Keeper
over half of my college friends swear by this — my midwestern friends vomit at the thought and some of those think I’ve made it up with my own perverted mind.

white gravy and fried okra
seems to be a southern thing with overflow into the midwest

Arkansas
aka AR (not AK). aka a former state of the Confederacy. aka “yes, right above Louisiana, next to Tennessee, no, not midwest.” aka “yes, born and raised. I realize that I don’t have an accent.” aka “oh, such an original joke. No…I haven’t slept with any of my brothers or cousins.”

New England
as it differs from the 13 colonies. “NY and PA are most certainly not in New England.”
