1. Everybody Will Ask You What Living In New Orleans Was Like<\/h2>\n

\"Living<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user phelanriessen<\/div>\n

And when you say you\u2019re actually from Shreveport they\u2019ll ask how far that is from New Orleans. Well\u2026 a bit<\/i> of a drive actually.<\/p>\n

2. And You\u2019ll Forever Be Explaining That LA Doesn\u2019t Mean Los Angeles<\/h2>\n

\"Those<\/p>\n

Source: giphy.com<\/div>\n

No, not Los Angeles. Louisiana. That state that\u2019s nowhere near California.<\/p>\n

3. They\u2019ll Try And Fail To Imitate Your Accent And It Will Be Terrible<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: pixgood.com<\/div>\n

And it doesn\u2019t matter which of the many Louisiana accents you have\u2014everyone else will inevitably butcher it.<\/p>\n

4. Then They\u2019ll Ask Why You Don\u2019t Sound Like Their Other Louisianan Friend<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: giphy.com<\/div>\n

\u201cUh, maybe because we\u2019re from towns that are at least a ten minute drive away, so obviously we have totally different accents.\u201d<\/p>\n

5. Drinking On The Street Means Brown Bagging It<\/h2>\n

\"Enjoys<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s generally pretty frowned upon. Grabbing a beer to go or a daiquiri at a drive through will be a thing of the past.<\/p>\n

6. When You Say You\u2019re From A Parish Everyone Assumes You\u2019re Super Religious<\/h2>\n

\"Louisiana<\/p>\n

Source: giphy.com<\/div>\n

Regardless of whether you actually are or not, no one gets that a parish is just a county.<\/p>\n

7. You\u2019ll Have To Explain The Difference Between Creole and Cajun<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user laffy4k<\/div>\n

And at some point someone will rave about this amazing Cajun restaurant that you will then visit only to find out they\u2019re serving Creole food.<\/p>\n

8. Small Talk Is The Absolute Worst<\/h2>\n

\"People<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user editor<\/div>\n

When you ask someone how they are, they just say, \u201cFine.\u201d Fine. What are you supposed to do with fine? No one knows how to just sit and talk like Louisianans.<\/p>\n

9. Everyone Is An Expert Because They Went To Mardi Gras On Spring Break<\/h2>\n

\"Visit<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user DoctorWho<\/div>\n

Yeah\u2026 that\u2019s great and all, but living in Louisiana actually means a whole lot more than Mardi Gras. (Even if LA does do Mardi Gras better than everyone else ever.)<\/p>\n

10. You\u2019ll Never Find Decent Boudin Again<\/h2>\n

\"Decent<\/p>\n

So live it up and eat as much as you can while still you can!<\/p>\n

11. All Other Football Fans Are As Fair-Weather As They Come<\/h2>\n

\"New<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user derek_b<\/div>\n

Were the Saints always good? No. Did you love and support them unconditionally? Of course. Because that\u2019s what you do. You stand by your team! WHO DAT?<\/p>\n

12. There Is No Replacement For Community Coffee<\/h2>\n

\"Coffee<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user digitalsextant<\/div>\n

When someone suggests Starbucks, you\u2019ll want to cry. Be prepared for some serious caffeine withdrawals.<\/p>\n

13. A Whole Lot Of Newspaper Goes To Waste<\/h2>\n

\"Enjoy<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user editor<\/div>\n

No one really knows how to do a crawfish boil like Louisianans. Other southern states may claim they can, but your taste buds know the difference.<\/p>\n

14. Outsiders Pronouncing Louisiana Town Names Is Endlessly Amusing<\/h2>\n
Source: Movoto Originals via Youtube<\/div>\n

Just ask someone to say Thibodaux, Meraux, and Maringouin, and enjoy.<\/p>\n

15. Everyone Will Think You\u2019re Calling Them A Famous Singer<\/h2>\n

\"Everyone<\/p>\n

Cher means something totally different outside The Pelican State.

16. You Have A Much Higher Tolerance For Creepy Crawly Things<\/h2>\n

\"Snake<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user hspauldi<\/div>\n

Living in Louisiana gives you a kind a superpower. You\u2019ll laugh in the face of measly little spiders while everyone else runs scared.<\/p>\n

17. Tomatoes In Gumbo Is A Crime Against Humanity<\/h2>\n

\"Enjoy<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user 51653562@N00<\/div>\n

Or at least a crime against good taste! And yet there are people who actually make gumbo with tomatoes and think it tastes great.<\/p>\n

18. You\u2019ll Long For Warm Summer Nights At Louisiana Music Festivals<\/h2>\n

\"Louisiana<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user shreveportbossier<\/div>\n

Whether you were a Zydeco, swamp pop, country, blues, or jazz fan, Louisiana music festivals were always the best thing ever.<\/p>\n

19. People Are Way Too Stressed Out All The Time<\/h2>\n

\"<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user lsuchick142<\/div>\n

Louisianans move at their own pace\u2014a nice, natural, calm pace. Everyone else loves to brag about how tired they are and run around like chickens with their heads cut off all the time. Just hold onto your laissez-faire<\/i> attitude and leave the stressing to everyone else.<\/p>\n

20. And No One Knows How To Celebrate The Little Things<\/h2>\n

\"Enjoy<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user editor<\/div>\n

Louisianans can whip up a feast and gather forty friends and family members in a room together in two hours for a reason as little as the weather being nice that day. Who else can do that? No one, as it turns out.<\/p>\n

21. Ask Your Relatives To Send You A King Cake<\/h2>\n

\"Eat<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user matthewlevine<\/div>\n

Because honestly, nothing is going to compare to what you can get in Louisiana and going through king cake season without a king cake is the worst.<\/p>\n

22. You Are Not Prepared For A Real Winter<\/h2>\n

\"Pleasant<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user xhero<\/div>\n

Remember all those times you wore a jacket when it was seventy degrees outside? Yeah, well\u2026 it wasn\u2019t actually cold then. And that half-inch of snow wasn\u2019t \u201ca lot of snow\u201d either.<\/p>\n

23. Rice And Gravy Is The Perfect Homesickness Cure<\/h2>\n

\"Rice<\/p>\n

Source: Tumblr user -emmaaa<\/div>\n

And you\u2019ll need to eat a whole lot of it if you ever leave Louisiana.<\/p>\n

24. Your Mardi Gras Beads Are The Coolest Gift Ever<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user tanyaspillane<\/div>\n

If you\u2019re willing to part with a few pieces from your collection, you\u2019ll earn a reputation as the best gift giver ever.<\/p>\n

25. Louisiana Snack Foods Are Just Better<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user jesseyvette<\/div>\n

No other snack food will ever measure up to Zapp\u2019s or cracklins, no matter how much locals love their lesser potato chips or some fancy popcorn that\u2019s big there.<\/p>\n

26. You\u2019ll Have To Find A New Way To Fill Any Humid Days<\/h2>\n

\"Enjoying<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user bjornb<\/div>\n

Sitting on the porch, drinking a gallon of tea, and gossiping with neighbors isn\u2019t the norm most places.<\/p>\n

27. It\u2019s Hard Not To Go On The Defensive<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: degrassi.wikia.com<\/div>\n

If you\u2019re from any sort of flood zone in Louisiana, everyone will ask why you didn\u2019t leave earlier. Well, too bad for them, because you can think of at least a million (not an exaggeration) reasons why.<\/p>\n

28. It\u2019s A Whole Lot Harder To Make Friends<\/h2>\n

\"It's<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user johnseb<\/div>\n

Louisianans can make a friend out of any stranger, but not everyone is as open and trusting. It\u2019s a good thing Louisianans are great at overcoming any obstacle.<\/p>\n

29. The Hunt For A Great Beignet Takes Awhile<\/h2>\n

\"Powdered<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user bigberto<\/div>\n

You can\u2019t just stop in any hole in the wall cafe and eat the most glorious powdered sugar covered treat in the world anymore.<\/p>\n

30. You\u2019ll Realize Just How Beautiful Louisiana Is<\/h2>\n

\"Natural<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user finchlake2000<\/div>\n

It\u2019s easy to take all that beauty for granted, but between the gorgeous and diverse nature, the interesting architecture, and the wonderful people, Louisiana is pretty much paradise.
