Resident Seagull

You know you're from Miami when
you call flipflops chancletas
you wear them EVERYWHERE
you can recognize a santero
the car behind you honks their horn because you stopped at a red light
you reminisce about booty music
you buy your party food at Blue Sky
you refer to your hometown as 305
you know you can't really get anywhere without speaking Spanish
you spend your summer days inside cuz it's hot as hell outside
you're so used to craziness that very few things surprise you
you go to a store/business and the manager tells you "hablas espanol?" cuz
they cant speak english
you know how to drink a colada
you know your pastelitos
you realize that most of Miami is a ghetto
you know you have to be stupid or white to go to UM
your ride is pimped but your house is a shit hole
you know to be out of Downtown by 6pm
it's 60*F outside and you wear a sweater, a jacket, gloves, and boots
you call Farm Stores La Vaquita
you know the only time there's no traffic on the Palmetto is from 3-4 am
you know at least one person who has more than six people living in their
house
you have a statue of Santa Barbara, or La Caridad del Cobre in your house
your neighbor keeps chickens and you're worried you'll find one of them dead on your doorstep
you know that New Times has better news than the Miami Herald, even though half of it is strip club and escort ads
*you know any woman walking around after dark on Flagler or Biscayne is
turning tricks
you take your car to go one block down the street
your lobster and designer purses all come from one place: some
guy's trunk in Hialeah
you see girls wearing clubbing clothes to go to 7-11
you add an 'eh' to everything starting with 's'.
there's a navarro on every corner
you have to put on the invitations starts at 2:30pm when the event really
starts at 3:30pm just so people actually get there on time.
when you flip on what use to be 94.9 ZETA, it is now some shit station
that plays REGAETON
