you know you lived in the 757 if (prob a repost so shoot me)
good ol myspace. i dont remember seeing this on here
You know you've lived in 757 if...
You aren't amazed whenever any city within 50 miles of your house is mentioned in a text book, national news, etc.
You can name at least three of Mike Joynes' law partners.
You can finish the "Beach Ford" song. [Beach Ford, Barton Ford, Lincoln, Mercury.. World Class!]
You know Mount Trashmore is a real place, not a joke.
You can see another 7-11 from the 7-11 you're currently at.
You know that 64 West in Chesapeake is actually going east.
Any westbound trip you've ever made involves at least one tunnel.
You can name at least three underwater tunnels within a twenty mile radius of your home.
You've been friends with, dated or married a sailor.
You can say "Norfolk" while sounding neither obscene nor incorrect.
You don't stop and look skyward when aircraft fly over.
You know what a Food Lion is.
Newport News is not a catalog, it is a city.
It's not a peninsula, it's the Peninsula. With a capital P.
You can name all the I-64 spurs.
It's not Portsmouth, it's P-town.
The Strip isn't a nudie bar, it's a tourist trap.
To you, Scope isn't just mouthwash.
The Boathouse doesn't actually dock any boats.
You know Dam Neck and Birdneck aren't necks of any kind.
You don't mind the jet noise.
You don't slow down in the tunnel, because it's not a big deal.
One of your major accomplishments in life is holding your breath all the way thru the HRBT... while driving
Its normal for seven cities to be linked in almost every conceivable way.
You can leave town for years at a time and come back to find the same segments of roads still under construction.
Its Seven Five Seven, not Seven Fifty-Seven.
An inch of snow closes everything down. 3 inches is a blizzard.
MacArthur was not only a brilliant general, but a fine shopping establishment.
You don't laugh when you hear "Rip Rap Road," in fact you might even duck down really fast, just in case
You know that Norfolk International Airport and NewportNews/Williamsburg International Airport aren't really international airports.
No, you're not hallucinating. Those are mermaids.
You know the real reason we have not been hit by a hurricane in the past several years is because of Pat Robertson.
You had a nickel for every OBX sticker you saw on the road, you'd be rich by now
When you get 5 different directions from 5 different people on how to get to downtown Norfolk.
Its not Newport News, It's "Bad News"
Its not Chesapeake, It's "The Peak"
You know what a Farm Fresh is.
You know you're from Hampton Roads if a twenty minute drive is not an unreasonable amount of time to be on the road, regardless of your destination.

First time I've seen it... had a few good laughs.
Josh, maybe you just need to quit spending so much time on myspace? Just cause other people post bulletins, doesn't mean you need to spend your entire day reading them.
This might have given it away though!!!
