You know you're a New Yorker if you understand that it is not possible to be a fan of both the Mets and Yankees (or Jets and Giants), and you find yourself immediately getting mad at anyone who insists that they are.
You know you're a NYer if you ate at one of the many Original Rays Pizza and insist that is the Original Ray's Pizza.
You know you're a NYer if you knew that if there was a Mr.Softee truck standing outside WTC back in the day, you weren't buying icecream because he most likely sold you weed and whatnots!
You know you are a Nyer if during the summer you grabbed the neighborhood kids to pose as a parent and score a free lunch at school.
You know you are a NYer if you call the fire hydrant a johnny pump and even one better, you get the FDNY (obviously dad or neighbor had connections) to open it for you during a super hot summer day. I miss those days
