Totally agreed. I was more using my example of a n00b moving there as an annoyance being self depreciating and focusing on these things and intricacies of CT living.

Thanks!

Welcome to CT. Hope you have a safe move. The only thing I can think of is the liquor store is kind of frequently referred to as the packy- short for package store. It throws some people off if they hadn’t heard it before.

My father's from Dorchester, and even in CA has called liquor stores Packy's my entire life.

I got weird looks in school out here.
