People from the 603 are proud. I mean, "live free or die," is a serious motto that many passionately live by.

I left Massachusetts for college and decided to stay in New Hampshire ever since. I never went back.

I have come to terms with many things that, well, piss people off in New Hampshire.

Let me give an example for another state: people from Massachusetts hate people who drive a U-Haul on Storrow Drive. It's a thing. No U-Hauls are allowed on Storrow Drive. Everyone from Boston knows that, but not those from out of state.

So for New Hampshire, one thing that ticks people off are brake lights on 95 North (or South) with a commonwealth license plate.

I bet I just triggered you.

It enrages people from New Hampshire to see out of state drivers passing them, slowing down, and causing massive traffic jams going north every weekend in the summer.

Stick to your state...is what I presume people think.

Every state has them. The small, annoying things that people do notoriously in, around, or about your state. So it's not just out of state folks.

Here is another example: when people from New Hampshire say they are from Boston.

Nope. You are not. Saying you are from Boston may seem easier, may even "sound better" depending on who you are talking to or the situation, but it is a lie.

If you are from the Granite State, you should be damn proud.

Oh and, you should know the Old Man of the Mountain, and if you don't, well, that annoys me!

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.

Read on to explore the cost of gas over time and rediscover just how much a gallon was when you first started driving.
