Will you profess your love of Abba, promote a political cause, or come up with a clever pun in seven characters? When it\u2019s as cheap as it is in Virginia, these are things you have to consider.<\/p>\n

2. Supermarket Apples Will Forever Taste Gross<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve picked and eaten the good stuff, right off the tree, and you\u2019re not about to go back now.<\/p>\n

3. No Other Apple Cider Donuts Can Compare<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the only and best way to end a perfect day of Virginia apple picking.<\/p>\n

4. Your Flag Has Made You Way More Mature Than Most Men Twice Your Age<\/h2>\n

Source: Wikipedia user Illegitimate Barrister<\/div>\n

It\u2019s just a normal body part, State Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli. If a grade school student can look at it without giggling, then everyone else should be able to handle it.<\/p>\n

5. You Have An Open Invite To A Bunch Of President\u2019s Houses<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user 39908901@N06<\/div>\n

Virginia was home to eight (that\u2019s right, count \u2018em, eight) presidents, and you\u2019re used to just being able to waltz up to Mount Vernon (George Washington\u2019s house), or Monticello (Thomas Jefferson\u2019s house), or Montpelier (James Madison\u2019s house), any time you please.
\nWhat can we say? We just breed leaders here.<\/p>\n

6. If People Get US History Facts Wrong You\u2019re Compelled To Correct Them<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Even if you\u2019re not an American history buff, you\u2019re\u2026 still an American history buff. All those grade school trips to Colonial Williamsburg are forever seared in your brain.<\/p>\n

7. You\u2019ve Learned To Expect Free Sugar Cookies When You Grocery Shop<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

You\u2019ve never had to break the \u201cdon\u2019t shop while you\u2019re hungry\u201d rule, because Harry the Happy Dragon always had your back.<\/p>\n

8. Even If You Weren\u2019t A Harris Teeter Shopper, Your Grocery Had An Equally Cute Mascot<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Rhyming piggly and wiggly is just undeniably cute, and the selection of fresh local produce doesn\u2019t hurt either.<\/p>\n

9. You Get The Best Of Both Worlds<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Southern hospitality and a relaxed pace with easy access to East Coast amenities? Yes, please.<\/p>\n

10. All The Best Vacation Spots Are Just A Day Trip Away<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Historic monuments, a giant national park, beaches, small towns with quaint B&Bs, and major East Coast cities are all just a drive away.<\/p>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

Delicious fruit or cute Christmas decoration that will make you feel as crafty Martha Stewart? The possibilities are endless.<\/p>\n

12. Staying Active Never Has To Mean Sweating In A Stinky Gym<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Gyms are functional, not fun (unless you\u2019re one of those people), but with multiple state parks and beaches in their backyards, Virginians don\u2019t have to pay a membership fee to stay fit.
\nPlus, fictional studies conducted by the Department of Common Sense show your kids will totally hate gyms, but will love exploring in nature with you.<\/p>\n

13. You REALLY Know Your Way Around A Peanut<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

Boiled peanuts, roasted peanuts, peanut soup, jumbo raw peanuts in the shell\u2026.you could go on.<\/p>\n

14. You\u2019ll Never Top Your Childhood Trips To Busch Gardens<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Is there a better or prettier theme park in the world? That question is rhetorical, because the answer is obviously no.<\/p>\n

15. All Those Northern Virginia Wineries Turned You Into A Total Wine Snob<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Virginia wine country may not have all the prestige, but anyone who tries to knock it should just try to find a better Chardonnay, Merlot, or Cabernet Franc before they talk.<\/p>\n

16. You Might As Well Hand Your Paychecks Directly To Tysons Corner<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user 39908901@N06<\/div>\n

Sometimes you wonder what terrible thing you did to deserve one of the top five malls in the nation in your state, but then you go shopping and buy something amazing and cute and functional, and you don\u2019t care anymore.<\/p>\n

17. Living In A Cave Was Your Childhood Dream<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user piet_theisohn (edited)<\/div>\n

Of course, you\u2019ll never fulfill that dream, since there aren\u2019t exactly units up for rent at Luray Caverns.<\/p>\n

18. The Words \u201cNew Construction\u201d Send You Running The Other Direction<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Thanks, but no thanks. Not when there are this many gorgeous historic houses to choose from.<\/p>\n

19. Panic Ensues If Apple Butter Is Not In Your Pantry<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

\u201cWhy? It\u2019s only apple butter?\u201d That\u2019s right. It\u2019s only the most important condiment in the entire world.<\/p>\n

20. After All The Fresh Blue Crab, You Just Can\u2019t Settle For Less<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Not for lesser crabs or, God forbid, \u201ccrab-like\u201d products that don\u2019t have an ounce of crab in them. You know you deserve better.<\/p>\n

Virginians know if it wasn\u2019t squirming this morning, it\u2019s no good. We know what fresh means.<\/p>\n

22. Your Fondest Memories Involve Sitting In Traffic<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Because it meant you were going on an awesome family or school sponsored trip to D.C. and it was totally worth it.<\/p>\n

23. Virginia Fall Colors Are The Best Thing Ever<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

If you walk outside during fall in Virginia and aren\u2019t totally awestruck by everything around you, you would have to be an angsty eighth grader who isn\u2019t impressed by anything.<\/p>\n

24. Late Night Sheetz Tripz Never Let You Down<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

Food that tastes good\u2026at a convenience store. Sheetz is more than a convenience. It\u2019s a symbol of hope. Sheetz makes the impossible possible.<\/p>\n

25. You\u2019ve Lost Faith In Humankind\u2019s Ability To Decipher Maps<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

Source: replygif.net<\/div>\n

Seriously, how hard is it to understand that West Virginia and Virginia are two different states?<\/p>\n

26. You Have A Serious Fried Pie Addiction<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

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

They\u2019re portable, delicious, homemade, and almost always available at a convenience store or farmers market. How could you not be addicted?<\/p>\n

27. Virginia Feels Like One Big Family<\/h2>\n

\"27<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr user 78428166@N00<\/div>\n

Granted, a family with that previously mentioned sibling rivalry. Still, few places compare to the kind of close-knit community Virginians in small towns and big cities alike have.
