There are some side effects to living in Maryland and we’re addressing them today. Take a look at this lighthearted list of risks and see how many you’ve survived through.
- The debilitating pain of getting Old Bay in a cut.
Flickr / Catherine It burns like the fire of a thousands suns.
- Chronic Lateness.
Flickr / Michael Verhoef Maryland traffic can turn the timeliest people into late, road-rage fueled maniacs.
- You’ll become a crab snob.
Flickr / Pockafwye Marylanders are very particular about how they like their crab cakes. Don’t try to serve them anything less than perfection… or else.
- Red and gold will slowly start to consume your closet.
Jamie Alvarenga / Only In Your State Wear the flag and wear it proud.
- Traffic circle confusion.
Flickr / Richard Drdul Ever get stuck behind someone who didn’t know how to use a traffic circle? The WORST.
- You’ll develop an addiction to these sinful treats.
Flickr / Steve Snodgrass It’s impossible to eat just one.
- Snowstorm coming? Prepare for an all out brawl in the grocery store.
Flickr / Paul Townsend Can bread be used as a weapon? Let’s hope so… just in case.
- Indecisive weather can drive a sane person mad.
Flickr / ohbendorf One day it’s 70 degrees and the next day, 40 degrees. Maryland weather can make us a little loony.
- You’ll blow out your vocal cords at sports events.
Flickr / Keith Allison “…that our flag was still there… OOOOOOOOO!”
- Say goodbye to your alignment.
Flickr / _chrisUK Potholes after winter… ‘Nuff said.
- You’ll get crabs.
Flickr / rashida s. mar b. There’s no cure… and we’re okay with that.
- You’ll either become really good at driving in snow, or particularly bad.
There’s no in between. Best to stay off the icy roads, just in case.
- No matter how many times you leave, you always come back.
