(I’m warning you: This may become a series. I had such a great time reading your comments last time that I thought I’d do it again, you know, to get more brilliant comments.)

…if you’ve yelled “Git-r-done” in the last 48 hours.

…if you wear denim shirts.

…if your favorite TV show was created by Tyler Perry.

…if your vanity license plate reads “MY STANG”

…if you insist on playing guitar in a room full of people.

…if you repeat the joke I just told without giving proper credit.

…if you still talk about that pass you threw against Central senior year.

…if you have a tattoo higher than the collar of your shirt.

…if you just got back from Captain D’s.

…if we just met and you immediately want to talk about politics or theology.
