You just may be from OR & WA if you...

[Joe13]

You may be a PNW native of it is 70f outside on a sunny day and it's just too hot to do anything...

You may be from OR & WA if you have an issue understanding any accents foreign or domestic.

You may be from OR & WA if you look down your nose at anyone from a different state.

If you get into your car and forget: your manners, how to drive in the rain (this one still boggles my mind), how to drive in the snow or generally not the person you are face to face then you may be from the PNW...

I too was a home grown, in Komifornia not an import. Same people that moved there and destroyed it moved to Oregon and are doing the same. I don't think it matters what state you lived in as they are all under attack right now. I lost more rights in Komifrnia then anyone in Oregon could ever lose its taken decades here to reach what Komifornia was in the late 80's and only partially. Want to watch a state be stripped live in Komifornia and watch it go from free to concentration camp life style in 53 years. Not knocking your frustration in this Mark W, but you are far from isolated and alone in this millions are watching Oregon turn into Komifornia and many millions are hating it.. i'm one of them for sure

Hopefully, this has been taken lightly as was intended.

I love this area and a lot about the PNW - I doubt I will ever move more then 30 miles or so from where I live now.

This was just an observation on my part having grown up to 12 traveling/living in Asia and the southern US.

I have been to every state except for about 8-10 (the NE is not part of the county that has ever called to me); the PNW is the very best of the lot IMO.

Born in Washington, raised in Alaska, ---3 day trip from Sitka to Anchorage, and they aren't even the farthest apart, so when you say "big states" I get a chuckle out of it!

62 years Oregon old.
You might be from Oregon if you ever left a keg party at midnight and drove to Kalifornia (Yreka) on bikes to get cases of Coors.
You might be from Oregon if you ever left a Keg party at 2:00 AM to be at Summer Lake before shooting time.
You might be from Oregon if you ever traveled up and down I-5 from Sutherlin to Portland to Salem to Eugene to go to concerts indoors and outdoors for three days.
You might be from Oregon if you left Sutherlin and it took you 28 hour to get to a farm in Oregon City to see Paul Butterfield & Brown Sugar.
And yes Dune, I could tell you a story about a sheep, no alcohol involved, just an azz kicking by the sheep that I thought I could ride, "Like a horse", let me be perfectly clear about that.

You may be from OR/WA if you need NEW mud boots every year.

You know the difference between Muck, LaCross, Extra toughs, and Boat boots! You see them as essential fashion accessories even when sitting in your lawn chair enjoying a cold one with a big bell on your rod while plunking for springers!
