13 Habits Kansans Will Never Be Able To Get Rid Of
Some habits we have are just too hard to break, no matter how hard you try. These habits are hard to get rid of, but it’s a good thing that they’re usually harmless. There’s a lot of habits to cover, but these are always the most obvious. Do you have all of these habits Kansans seem to pick up the longer we’ve been here?
Is it Slap's or Bite Me? Maybe you prefer Arthur Bryant's or Joe's in KC instead?
It's a good thing these phones come with cameras because we always want a photo of the next best sunset we see.
In line at the grocery store or the bank? Why not chat up your line neighbor and pass the time.
This happens more often in small towns, but I've been on the receiving end of a few conversations like this in the city as well.
This goes double if you're in a small town! The less crowded the street, the more likely it is you'll get a little wave.
We know that we all pick certain phrases we like and give them to our kids but I wonder what we sound like to people on the coasts?
It may not be the safest thing to do, but we've always got our eyes on the sky anyways.
It's just so friendly, and signals that finally you're done with your long goodbye.
Whether it's a potluck, new baby, or a funeral, they don't need to worry about dinner and we take care of our own.
You travel to somewhere out of state and mention you're from Kansas, and they always follow with something along the lines of "Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore!" Cue that big sigh.
Think of JCPenney or Aldi, and how we'd say JCPenney's or Aldi's instead.
We can't see the horizon, and it makes us just a little uncomfortable.
I don't know when this started, but it sure helps with scheduling!
Another habit of Kansans is loving all of the hometown restaurants we find during our travels.
