You go shopping, running errands in town. Then it seems like idiots are all around. Driving crazy, people in the stores that have ZERO consideration, people hollering down the street, people talking on their phones on speakerphone. Urgh on that one. I tell the wife...it's time to get back home, out in the country!
HAHAHAH that is true. Happens up by us too in winter where we have some surrounding ski areas and people from the city come up in droves some acting just like that. They call us country bumpkins We call them cityots.
- You become depressed every time you need to travel to a big or even medium sized city
- You feel like you're going to have an aneurysm every time you drive in city traffic, and wonder why everyone is so angry/rude.
- Your blood pressure drops by 10 points whenever you enter a rural area
- You make comments to your city friends about how beautiful a barren, isolated piece of land is and they think you're crazy
Any others?
When giving directions on 45 mile stretch of road you use the 3 traffic lights as a marker of where you are.
You know when your rural if the wife asks you to go food shopping and you grab the gun or fishing rod!
Your wife wants to know if your done cooking and you have to get the food wrapped in tinfoil off the truck exhaust manifold!
When your a kid you spend all year double and triple daring your friends to soap the windows for Halloween of the farmer that shoots at you with rock salt! It doesn't sting forever!

You know you're rural when you order a pizza and they'll only deliver it if you meet them half-way.
Locks slow down dishonest people. Maybe not by much, but I’ll take every advantage I can get to thwart them. And if they persist and I’m at home, I would use that other device common in rural areas...
