You know your from LI when
your 28 have a bmw , boat , go to tanning salons and go clubing all the time and you live at home because you don't have money .

On 50x 90 property your taxes are 10,000

When you are grilling burgers and run out of food . You can reach over the fence and take out food from your neighbours kitchen .

You always yell LI is the best of best. when you move Out of state you Tell everyone you are from NY leaving out LI.

You know you're from LI when:

You look at real estate prices for areas in other states and dream about how you could basically afford a mansion in a place like New Hampshire, North Carolina, Virginia, or Florida...but are stuck on Long Island in a house that would be worth pennies in those areas.

Or when you travel out of state and someone asks you where you're from...you answer Long Island and are immediately asked about how many times you visit NYC...and proceed to lie and say that you visit many, many more times than you actually do.

You live in LI when you cover your windows to prevent the tax man from looking in.

When you just bought a house because the taxes were a big seller at 5,300. Then after a few months you get a notice from your town notifying you that the new tax rate will be 9,800 .

Yes Long Island your the best.

I don't really think he's an army of one. Many people feel that Long Island has lost its appeal. Most people, that I have spoken to, feel like they are stuck here.

I was referring to the fact that it's the same person using different screennames to pretend to be more than one.

I have news for you. You're not banned. How do I know this? Because if you were banned, you would not be able to make posts.

My mistake I own up if I make a mistake. I thought I was because every thing had to go thru viewing first. I admited right away about the other screen name and why. believe me there are many posters that feel like I do.
