Oh I thought of another one, the Graffiti on the derelict building on baysy road next to where the Mitre 10 ? is now. BONG ON. When I was a youngin every time mum drove past it I would shout out BONG ON, not knowing what it meant. Haha my youthful innocence.

You go to 24hr christmas shopping at Chaddy even though there's no parking
and you don't intend on buying anything

HELL NO!! Stay the f#$k away from there!!

You take your boyfriend/girlfriend to Sky High for more then 'just the
view'

Nah for the drive up the hill ;)

You are wrapped that zone 3 has been removed
Yep :D

You have stumbled out of the 'Wheelers' or the 'Hallam'
both and the bezza

Every time you drive down Springvale rd passing Nunawading station... the
train happens to be crossing

only once

You know the whereabouts of Ramsay Street
and done responsible consistent turning out the front!! its funny to see how long it takes to turn up on the show. mate got into the court and to cover it up they got one of the ppl on the show to do do'ies!!

You or someone you know has chucked up on the sth Eastern or Eastern
freeway on the way home from clubbing

girlfriend

You were not surprised by the riots at Noble Park Maccas
not suprised, entertained

Springvale Rd is no more then 10 minutes from your house
try 30sec

You haven't been to Fountain Gate since Krispy Kremes became available
everywhere

where else do you find 15yo.......... i'll stop there

You exit at Toorak Rd and NEVER use etag
wouldnt say never but more often. sometime take prinny for the chance of drags though

You refuse to accept that the 'derros' from Cranbourne are Eastsiders (lol)
gf's 2 best friends are from cranbourne, but they arent prega's (yet)

You go to Burwood Kmart at 1am coz your bored or coz you can
got some friendly security there...

You've played ball at Dandenong/Kilsyth basketball stadium for your
school/friends/local team
school

You know what Wobbies World is
yep, never been in though

Before you got your own DVD burner... you bought all your movies/games from
the ethnic blokes at Caribbean Market

haha only once, funny watching them pack up when they get a tip the cops are on the way

Being stuck in ridiculous peek hour traffic doesn't phase you
shits me up the wall

Even as an absolute last resort.. you do not go to Dandy Plaza
not bad there

You're glad Ozone was built on top of the 'old bus stop'.. this nearly
wiped out the 'Bus stop gangsters'

glad coz its mini-chaps bro!!!

You've had a bbq/birthday/drink up at Jells/Burden park
SHITLOADS!!!

You have been to Caribbean Rollerama.. to roller blade of course (roller
skates are for dweebs)

only as a kid

You go for coffee with friends at Shine (Upstairs) at Glenny even though
it's as noisy as hell and there's no chance of understanding what the
person sitting next to you is saying

hate that joint. too many people from school work there!!

You then go for coffee at Airstream and its just as loud
as above

You don't slow down at Eastlink Roadworks unless there's a guy holding a
'SLOW' sign

had one of those mofo's swing the sign at me for going too fast (according to him!!)

You went to watch movies at Pinewood because all movies cost $3 but don't
admit it

All my life!!

You are not surprised to find a Club X store right next to Baby co. in
Baysy

Work near there, go to snap next door all the time!!

You don't find it confusing driving through 5 ways (Princess hwy,
Springvale rd, Police rd, Centre rd intersection)

only go through for the drags yeah??

You know that the 16 year olds around Ringwood/Dandy only had babies to get
the baby bonus

and packy, and cranbourne, and nobel.....



Why you ask?? :D

^^That is legendary! Couldn't find it on YouTube.

I only spent 2 years in Sunshine. On the way home from school one day we saw this dude getting the snot belted out of him by 3 fellas. Smashed his face on the sign on the side of the shops and left blood on it. Scary when you're only 10.
