New Englanders 

People born and raised in New England

Straight forward, no bullshit, working class, often have distinct accents.


Don't feel the need to be all hug-y and flaky like Californians when they meet people. Will give you a hard time, but only if they like you.


Often found in Diners and eateries named after the same person who's going to serve you wieners and coffee milk when you walk in the door. (ie- Sally's, Barbara's...)

Considered rude by the rest of the country, but only because they're pansies and can't handle honesty.
Person 1- Yeah I just moved to Rhode Island, and my neighbor hasn't said hi or waved or anything yet... but the other day when we got snowed in he came over and shoveled me out!

Person 2- What a true New Englandah.

---
Person 1- I'm visiting here and I don't think any of the natives like me!!

Person 2- We're New Englanders, dear. Stop being so sensitive.

New Englander's Welcome 

The act of surprising a friend or new neighbor by breaking into their house while they are shopping. Upon their return home, you and your friends stab said homeowner with sharp objects (preferably knives or claws) followed by a hearty "Surprise!". Traditionally ends in laughter and a hospital trip.
We gave Tom a New Englander's Welcome the other day. He's in the E.R. now, but boy was he happily surprised!

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
