You have to be an acutal Grosse Pointer get some of this, but for me (as an Grosse Pointer for more than 2 and a half years, its hailarious)

Here is a few things I would like to 'pointe' out...

1.) I had one hell of an English teacher last year, I got noting but 'C''s on my papers all year, then one day, I had a 'nice and friendly' conversation with her (I didn't even know it was possible to use more than 7 profanities in one sentence) and I got nothing but A+'s for the rest of the year.....well that was only about 2 weeks...I have the best anger management in Grosse Pointe, hands down

2.) I know 8 Bershbacks'

3.)'91. You can't remember all of your principals names if you went to South..' That one is not true.....I only know 6...

4.)'92. You went to dances to get drunk. ' and for something else after

5.)'105. You enjoy late night trips to Meijers to harass the employees. ' Those are always fun...going back tomorrow

6.)'107. You know where on Mack you can and can't speed. ' too bad my dad don't know that...


7.)'108. You know about "late start" Wednesdays. ' They stop doing that 2 years ago......now we get late starts on 'Mondays'

I can go on and on.....lol...but I getter check to see whos on AIM

Just had to add this one...

'154. You have pictures of yourself and your friends getting drunk,
passed out, getting on each other, etc.
155. You put them in an album. '

I don't have one of those yet....but I'm sure I'm in someone's collection ...

Still reading......

"168. You know who Clyde is. "

I think this one is refering to Mr. Griesbaum's AIDS poster...appeartly this happens every year

'178. You had acquired a taste for the finer alcohols by age 13. '

Sorry...'lil late to the party....I'm 15

'179. You know that the Mafia is alive and doing quite well.'

'You hit me, we hit you'

'185. You think you're better than everyone else. Because, let's face it, you are. '

Damn straight!


BTW...just out of couriosity, anyone else here ever been to Grosse Pointe?

You know the names of at least 3 cops in your city.

Ummmmm... hello? You'd think with an occupation like mine, you're bound to meet a few of them.  ::)

You park wherever you damn well please.

Yeah, I do that.  :-[

You have a nifty recycling bin.

Nifty.

You've gotten lost in the Woods.

Many times, infact.

You know someone who crashed their first Jeep.

That person had a backup car.

Yeah, me.

You know someone who's name ends in a roman numeral.

Not all that uncommon.

Your family has more cars then it does legal drivers.

Yep. I've got two cars.

Your backyard includes a tennis court, pool, Jacuzzi or other means of relaxation.

Have a hot tub in the back yard. That good enough?

You have been to another country (and no, Canada doesn't count)

Been all over the world.
