I have lived in several states, and I don't know anyone who is not a native NYer who drives as well as I do.
I'd think one would have to be a phenomenal driver in NY. Just watching scares the crap out of me.

Speaking of driving stereotypes...

Even though I'm from Ohio, I don't hog the left lane.

But there was a time when that was popular among black women. For me that style went out in high school. I can't speak for anyone else still wearing it.

But I won't even put gel in my hair. I like it soft and natural.
Calm yourself cakes.

It's still a nice thread.

I'm a lifelong resident of New Jersey, pronounce my Rs, and don't have one drop of Italian blood in me!

I get that too and I am 33. People have been shocked that I managed to wait this long considering how many people I know that started in high school.

Luckily my birth control has always worked. Some people (like relatives) have thought it weird that I prefered to wait until marriage to have kids. Just wasn't trying to do the baby-daddy thing.

Cakes, you're across the beltway from me, but we are living the same life.

Childfree, when you gonna have a kid.

I don't eat at buffets. My family hates I don't.
