And!

I just realized that Brooklyn's being on Long Island is the reasons that you can get the LIRR at Flatbush and Atlantic.
I mean, of course, duh!
But it's new to me and further reinforces that being from Long Island (saying, specifically, that you're from Long Island [as opposed to living on]) denotes a very specific state of mind.

(You know like saying that you're from Brooklyn or Queens, Staten Island or The Bronx.)
