I always go back and forth whether we adhere to the rule Mainers do, "just because a cat has kittens in the oven don't make 'em biscuits" or we permit first-generation born in RI to call themselves Rhode Islanders.

This isn't Maine. Plus we have a habit of picking up strays, and kinda trapping them here, as a state. So in my book, if they grew up here amongst my kids, if they have an accent and have a preferred party pizza, they're Rhode Islanders. Yeah first generation. It don't take long to get salt in your bones
