While being from Bergen County, New Jersey does come along with many false stereotypes, we all can admit that some of them are in fact true. We aren't snobs or guidos who only care about being tan and getting our nails done, but we sure are used to the way things are done in Bergen County and moving away justifies just how much we appreciate what we have in our good old home towns! Here are 11 signs that you are most definitly from Bergen County.
1. Still dragging a friend along to get gas—and obviously documenting it every time with a Snapchat.
2. Any large grassy area is automatically considered farmland or Amish Country.
3. Being able to go to the mall, or anywhere for that matter, on a Sunday is still the most amazing thing and nobody else understands.
4. But having only one mall that is at least a 30-minute drive is such a struggle.
5. OK, so when did it become legal to literally switch directions and make a U-turn on a highway?!
6. Hearing about people having to drive 20 minutes to their friend’s houses at home…
7. When you’re asked where you’re from and you answer “Paramus.” and they know exactly what you mean.
8. What is sauce? It’s gravy.
9. You shed a tear when you heard that diners are literally non-existent where you go to school.
10. But Wawas are, so that’s pretty cool.
11. Bacon, egg, and cheese bagel. That is all.
