Can't leave out SC, Turnbull and Don Cardi. Some I deleted because they were already mentioned with New York and Da Bronx.

You know where to find alcohol at 3AM
There is a 24 hour bagel shop near your house
Your whole family lives either in your house, or a few blocks away
A pigeon has ever crapped on your head or at least your car
As a kid, you've ever ran into your house to get money because you heard the ice cream man coming
You've never been to the shore; you've been to the BEACH
