ADVICE FOR ANYONE MOVING TO CAPE BRETON;

1. Save all bacon grease. You will be instructed later on how to use it.
2. If you put your car in the ditch during a snow storm, don't panic. Some guys in a four wheel drive with a 12-pack of beer and a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them. Just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.
3. Remember: "How’s she goin’ Buddy” does not mean you’re buddies.
4. If your neighbour says, "I’ll biff ya right over dat fence” stop going into his/her yard to complain about shit.
5. Don't tell us how you did it back home, nobody cares.
6. “Jeet jet?” means did you have supper?
7. A Mercedes-Benz is not a status symbol, a Chevy, Dodge, or Ford is.
8. If someone says “I better get at ‘er”...it means they have to go to work but if they say, “I got my pogey”...it means they don’t.
9. The value of a parking space is not determined by the distance to the next vehicle, but by the distance to the LC.
10. If you are driving a slower moving vehicle, on a two lane road pull onto the shoulder that is called "courtesy".
11. BBQ is a food group.
12. Yes, weddings and funerals are worth taking the day off work for.
13. Everything is better with Ranch, Hot sauce, or BBQ sauce.
14. DO NOT honk your horn at us to be obnoxious, we will literally sit there until one of us dies.
15. We pull over and stop for emergency vehicles to pass.
16. We pull over for funeral processions, turn our music off and men remove hats or caps.
17. "Bless your Heart" is a nice way of saying you're an idiot.
18. If someone is roarin’ it means they’re having a good belly laugh, cryin’ could also mean laughing. (“I was cryin’ watching him/her try to start the lawn mower”)
19. There will often be a farm tractor on route 19 when you are running late, so allow time for that.
20. If you don't like the weather in Cape Breton, wait 15 minutes, it’ll change.
