Hey there! If you're from Southern Utah, you can probably relate to this. If you're planning on visiting Southern Utah, this is good for you to read! Also, CAN'T WAIT to read the comments of people saying "I'm born and raised here and this doesn't offend me!" Great, man. Let's just relax now. HERE WE GO!

1. Being told a certain Drive-In on St. George Blvd is "Too Expensive":

This business is now COMPLETELY shut down, but they had an ARMY of people coming after me for saying their food is expensive. Apparently, I need a higher paying job and "go to yelp, if I NEED to write a review" wtf.

2. The words "GREATER ZION":

Don't you DARE say those words. "Greater Zion" is like the guy your girl told you not to worry about, then you break up and she's doing the Walk-Of-Shame out of his house at 7am. We HATE those words!

3. Change. Any change. AT ALL:

Don't change the flag! Stop building homes! Stop bringing in new restaurants! Stop making this place better! We want to pretend it's 1970 forever!

4. A California License plate:

If your car has a California plate, just HIDE! They're coming after you. You'll catch a middle finger. You'll get cut off in traffic. Did you commit murder? No... You just have a California License plate!

5. Anything with the words "Drag" and "Show" in the title:

Don't EVER pair those words up. Don't even JOKE about those words together. Those words don't belong here! Send those words back to where they came from!

6. Saying Crumbl's cookies are good:

Don't you dare tell someone Crumbl has a good cookie! You must eat it in secret in an alley, like you're cheating on your wife! Don't you dare go admitting that it actually tastes good!

7. Saying Cumbl's cookies are NOT good:

Don't you dare tell someone Crumbl sucks! This is a local Utah company! You are not allowed to have an opinion on Crumbl! They have millions of followers online! Just shut up about Crumbl. Don't even THINK of saying anything.

8. Pronouncing Zion "Zy-On":

Hey pal... It's ZY-IN like LION. You're clearly not from here, and now you need to leave! We can't have you out here saying ZY-ON. What're you... A CALIFORNIAN?!

9. Protesting ANYTHING Publicly:

Wait! You're angry about something?! Well I'm angry that you're angry about it! Protesting at Planned Parenthood? Protesting BLM on Main Street? Here come the guys with GIANT LIFTED TRUCKS to save the day!

10. Posting a photo of a celebrity you met in town:

"LEAVE THEM ALONE! THEY'RE JUST A NORMAL PERSON!" It would be AWESOME to meet your favorite celebrity at Cafe Rio here in town, but if you post that photo... Get ready for all the "LET THEM BE! THEY DON'T DESERVE THIS" comments. GUYS... RELAX!
