Grandpa, Am I a Local Girl?

Grandpa, when you talk about 'Local People' or 'Locals', what are you talking about?
"Well little girl, local people are people from Hawaii. They're usually the coolest people.
Am I local, Grandpa?
"No, little girl. You're from the mainland."
I wanna be local too.
"Well, do you like to sing karaoke?"
Yes.
"And is one of your fingernails longer than the other nine?"
Yes.
"And does anybody in your family eat dog?"
You do. So...Yes....does that make me 'Local'?
"No, that makes you a bookbook....now be quiet and eat your bagoong."
