YOU'RE FROM ONTARIO WHEN!!!!!!!!!





1. "Vacation" means going to Barrie for the weekend



2. You measure distance in hours.



3. You often switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.



4. You know several people who have hit deer more than once.



5. You use a down comforter in the summer.



6. Your grandparents drive at 100 km/h through four metres of snow during a blizzard, without flinching.



7. You carry jumper cables in your car and your girlfriend knows how to use them.



8. You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.



9. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled.



10. You know all four seasons: Almost winter, winter, still winter, and construction.



11. You actually understand these jokes.

In Europe they don't. Traffic varies too much to make sense.



We won't for long. Took me 3.5 hours to get to Toronto on Sunday night, 2.5 on Wednesday night. Should take 2 hours. Our traffic is so bad it almost makes sense to just say the distance.



Most of those rules apply better to Western Canada anyway.
