you know your from the midwest when you get an email saying it’s gonna be a snow day for your school and you get so excited and make plans even through the weather is crazy
Once there was a tornado while I was in a Goodwill without a basement and tons of people went by the doors or outside to take pics of the tornado that was like a mile away. So yeah... I've experienced it.
I can't believe you forgot the two most important phrases of the Midwest *bumps into someone* "Ope I'm sorry!" *trying to pass other people* "Here, lemme just sneak right past ya.."
So true. I live in TN now and have to explain the fake smile and amount of self control I have to use when someone walks into our store with *ichigan gear on and I have to interact with them, lol.
You forgot the part where we refer to distance using travel time. "How far do you live from here?" "About 20 minutes." "Ok, but how many miles?" "How the heck should I know?"
Signs you're from the Midwest: you're from either from Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Or Wisconsin.
Gabrielle [cutiecreeper66] so true! I'm also from Chicago and the best pop out there is greenriver, Wisconsin best is mars cheese castle, and Michigans best doughnuts is wesco! ( Coloma and watervilte peeps know what I mean!)
Something I love about the midwest is that we are so used to seeing stretches of corn for about 40 miles so we can hold our bladder or hunger until the next stopping point *IT'S REALLY USEFUL ONCE YOU ARE OLDER-*
when i was eight i thought a wolf or coyote or something of the sort was near my car and we were getting ready to leave but i was walking up to it to see what it was and maybe pet it...
Puppy chow is Chex cereal coated in chocolate and peanut butter and then dumped in a load of powdered sugar. It is the most delicious food you could ever eat
Voltage746 One time when there was actually a tornado I thought it was fine. I thought it was just anther test siren. After a while I checked what day it was and was like "oh, I should probably go to my basement"
Ava Nicole I live out in the country I went down to the basement to check and make sure we had flashlights and went back upstairs to stare at a tornado. I looked on Facebook and it was just filled with facebook live videos and everyone was out on there lawn videoing it
Disappointed - not one mention of "tennis shoes", which is SUUUUPER Midwestern. Also, and I don't know if this is just me, but I've noticed that the most common informal farewell in my area of the Midwest is "Have a good one!"
purplecatlover1825 randompizza I have apologized for saying sorry too much then said sorry for saying sorry and then just hitting myself and saying sorry again.
I... I can't... how... why?? Is that even possible????? Melt some chocolate and mix it with peanut butter, thoroughly coat some chex mix with it, cover it in powdered sugar. You're welcome.
Needed to be added = - can you come here once real quick? - where’s the bubbler? - when it’s thirty degrees out and you still wear shorts - holding the door open for someone who is far away - going up north - having an unwritten honor code (like leaving your stuff at a restaurant table) - tailgating
Ok Illinois people who can relate? Telling people your from Chicago when really your from a suburb right BY the Chicago area but you don’t feel like people asking where that is so you just say Chicago
I think most people that live in a suburb of a big city say that for the same reason you do. I live in a suburb of Cleveland but when people ask I just say Cleveland
so if you lived in a suburb you would rather talk about where exactly the city or town you live in is located instead of having an actual conversation with that person?
I remember when I was in elementary school, it was a wednesday of the first month and all of the kids were playing on the playground. There was this girl from California, and she had been told there was tornadoes in Minnesota, and when the siren when off she went crazy, you think someone would have told her but everyone just let her panic.
YoshiRawr123 Till i was ten, I thought it was the only dressing there was. Then I learned about french dressing. I still put ranch on everything though.
YoshiRawr123 I personally find ranch dressing vile; even on my Buffalo wings, I insist on having honey mustard because I hate both ranch and blue cheese...
Lmao it was so weird when i went to Florida from WI, people were wearing winter jackets in like 60 degree weather. I was in like shorts and a t shirt XD
Taylor Biersack I went to College in upstate ny and used to wear shorts and a t shirt in 40 degrees. Now I’ve been in Florida for 4 months and when it hit 70 I put on a long sleeve shirt and considered rushing to the mall to get a full winter jacket.
Cass and Holly Filangie .that must stink for you guys but a least your not sweating in 80 degree weather in December in Texas. but it's better than any where else
Talia Dgvchhvh Well some people like to do at-home deliveries and for other people after their water breaks it’s just too late and they can’t make it to the hospital and have to do it at the location they’re at.
I live in Ohio. We had a canned food drive in school. Yeah, no one cared to bring anything in, so they made it an Ohio State vs Michigan canned food drive. Bring in canned food, and write an M or an O on it. So much food got brought in.
Honestly this is so true! Puppy chow is heavenly, ranch is always in the fridge, bean bag toss is fun unless you suck at it, and it's called pop! -MICHIGAN-
mafiacat88 Some people call pop 'soda' or 'coke'. Usually us Midwesterners call it pop but others call it different things. There's no brand actually called 'pop' btw.
When you're from a small Midwestern town, it feels nice to be acknowledged. A town about 30 mins away got mentioned in a book i read and i was excited. I think tue author lives in my town because she is from southeast Missouri (my area) and there is a girl at my school with the same very uncommon last name.
I was exchange student in Wisconsin last year and I'm coming back summer this year. I know everything will be okay. I'm foreigner so it's more exciting for me when I watch and read about cities in Midwest. :">
K but for real I’m like 20 and I still can’t help but play the license plate game. Like it physically pains me when I see an out of state plate and say nothing.
EvilBeagle Omg I point out foreign license plates but not as a game, just cause I like seeing tourists and other visitors. Saw some Cali and Arizona plates today.
Grow me something mister! its basially chex cereal with some kind of chocolate or peanut butter filling i forget covered in powder sugar and it taste like heaven
I am an American Harry Potter fan and I am developing my own American version of Harry Potter titled Mary Arianna Smith The Girl Who Lived and I want my version of the Illvermorny School to be as accurate as possible to actual North American cultures and to do much better than Rowling did ! There are way too many Etc Etc’s to cover in a simple comment here but will say that my version of Illvermorny and MACUSA has no Statute Of Secrecy and Magical and Non Magical People are friends but not enemies for the most part and yes you can definitely tell what Magical People from the 5 different Regions of the United States are from they are more different from each than the Non Magic People from the 5 Regions of the United States are from ! And for some trivia Midwestern Witches of European descent often have Red hair, Fair skin tones and Attractive freckles and a very very pretty accent and way of talking and Do Not have hardly any dreams about engaging in The Dark Arts too much and it is the same way with there Midwestern Wizard of European descent counterparts too ! And finally most GOOD Slytherin’s and Pure Bloods come from North America it’s just those European ones that are the Voldemort and Bellatrix types ! Mary Smith is part Slytherin and part Hufflepuff but my version of Illvermorny has no Houses at all ! Let me know what you think about this !
It's like melted chocolate and peanut butter mixed together with chex cereal then you coat the cereal in it and powdered sugar is sprinkled on top. It's really good
I am from Missouri. I did not realize that responding truthfully to "How are you?" was a Midwestern thing!! I didn't realize that we were overly polite/friendly until I moved to Florida and lived there for a few years. People seem much nicer here. Also: I love puppy chow. I do go outside if there's a tornado watch/alert. Nothing over 50 Fahrenheit is cold.
Missouri isn't Midwestern. It's Southern. Except for St. Louis, from what I understand. It was considered historically as a Northern city in the South.
@@karenbartlett1307 Missouri is absolutely Midwestern. It's between the Mississippi and the Rockies, isn't it? People there say, "ope," don't they? Regions overlap. My state is Midwestern, Mountain AND Pacific Northwest. Technically, even Louisiana is in the Midwest.
Puppy chow, lemonade shakeups, and horseshoes are very popular in central Illinois. My friends and I smell like the lake and bug spray in the summer 😂😂😂😂😂
Ascension if this isn’t the truest thing I’ve ever heard in my life idk what is. Plus asking friends to go hangout but just getting in a car and driving around because central Illinois is just fields.
I live in Northern Illinois, it only takes like 40 minutes to get to Wisconsin. Puppy chow and lemonade shakeups are popular here too. Horseshoes are more popular in the country parts of Northern Illinois.
@@bugbysanders9651 I live in the far northeastern part of IL (about 10 min south of WI’s state line) and I see puppy chow being served at every party I go to
How about when the tornado warning goes off and you're like "ugh, shut up"
In Ohio it's a little different than that
+TheSmellyTomato yeah lol
YES.
I do that everytime one goes off 😂😂
Wednesday at 2:00 :)
you know your from the midwest when you get an email saying it’s gonna be a snow day for your school and you get so excited and make plans even through the weather is crazy
Can relate. I'm from International Falls MN, and we're obsessed with making mini snow hotels, even though I'm way too old for that.
Wait, only we do that?
EthanBrown ya bc the snow gets really intense in the midwest
ikr, we had a snow day for two days and for one of the days our power went out
@@Daisika that is me and my school has had 5 or 6 snow days so far this year
Something else about Midwesterners if there’s a tornado you go on your front porch to watch instead of “taking shelter”
Alyssa Fincher so true
Whaaaaaaaat? No.
People lose limbs, being out during those things. If a tornado comes, one gets underground and away from windows, if possible.
Joseph Dunphy believe me we do that a lot, tornados are nothing to us
Once there was a tornado while I was in a Goodwill without a basement and tons of people went by the doors or outside to take pics of the tornado that was like a mile away. So yeah... I've experienced it.

I'm from Minnesota and these are too real for me
Oh my gosh yessss
You got that from tiktok and soo accurate im from mn
You're so right!! Always makes me laugh!
You know you live in the Midwest when a tornado siren goes off and literally no one even acknowledges it. 😂
Or when the siren is going off while its raining and thundering but you just keep doing what youre doing and enjoy the weather.
every Saturday at noon.
Sara . . . Just a false alarm
Sara . . . Well I think it's a little different on the east side of the Midwest atleast in Michigan
Sara . . . Yup
"Ope, I'm just gonna SNEAK right past ya and grab the ranch."

🤣🤣🤣
Everybody does that
That’s every state.
This not a thing?
You know you’re from the Midwest when you say “sorry” for slightly bumping into someone

Omg I say it sometimes without even noticing! 😂
@@JustCooper Do you think "Ope, I shouldn't have said ope out loud"?

Its a New York thing to, at least in the area I live
I never liked ranch.
fr tho
It's also a southern thing
I'm from Kansas and I enjoy ranch with everything, is that not normal? my life is a lie.
They forgot that when we see dangerous animals we go and pet them
Roland Dorr TRUE
for some reason my friend decided to try and pet a squirrel and got bit..

The oversharing is so true! I didn’t even realize I did that until I saw this!
The lake thing is true too!
i think the oversharing is more southern, but talk about the weather is very midwestern.
Which makes sense as they don't have any oceans in the Midwest.... although the Great Lakes do a pretty good job of imitating them!
"The lake thing is true too!"
But, of course! There is shade at the lake.

Another sign is that you were delivered in a hospital in a Midwest state
Actual Trash wait if you weren’t born at a hospital then where were you born? I thought everyone was born at a hospital😂
Talia Dgvchhvh
Well some people like to do at-home deliveries and for other people after their water breaks it’s just too late and they can’t make it to the hospital and have to do it at the location they’re at.
My grandma was born on her kitchen table
@@taliadgvchhvh2229 My father was born in a farmhouse near Holland, Michigan.
Well I wasn't born in the midwest, but I was raised in the midwest.
I live in Ohio. We had a canned food drive in school. Yeah, no one cared to bring anything in, so they made it an Ohio State vs Michigan canned food drive. Bring in canned food, and write an M or an O on it. So much food got brought in.
That's the most Midwestern thing I've ever read lol
Ava Nicole Yeah! I live in Ohio too!
That is brilliant!
Props to whoever had that idea.
Ava Nicole Ive worked food drives in Michigan and honestly never had a problem with people not bringing any food in
Honestly this is so true! Puppy chow is heavenly, ranch is always in the fridge, bean bag toss is fun unless you suck at it, and it's called pop!
-MICHIGAN-
*MICHIGAN*
Alex Spongy got nothing against Michigan but I live in Ohio
Alex Spongy What else would it be called? Soda?
Or is pop a specific brand in which case I just missed the point.
Alex Spongy In the south all soda or pop is called 'coke'
"Do you want a coke?... what kind? We have ginger ale, orange, root beer....."
mafiacat88 Some people call pop 'soda' or 'coke'. Usually us Midwesterners call it pop but others call it different things. There's no brand actually called 'pop' btw.
You know you’re from the Midwest when you attack someone that doesn’t support your sport team 🤦♂️
Or you been knew bout the MO&KS rivalry
That's called being a sports fan
Actually that's a southern thing!
Michigan and ohio
When no one else knows the godly taste of custard.
Haley Lee TRUUUUUUUE
U know about culvers?
***** Um hell yea I do!
PREACH
Missourians love custard
Sign you're from the Midwest: If you say "Ope" instead of "Oh"
Delaney Diedrick I do both lol
Delaney Diedrick
I saw oh or both
YESSS
Ope I do do that
I just realized I do both
It doesn't matter if you love Michigan State Or Michigan, when we see someone who supports Ohio State we flip out.
It's really only thing that unites us.
Truuuueee
truuuueee
muck ichigan, Ohio state buckeyes for the win
kinda like the packers in Wisconsin vs. the Vikings from Minnesota, haha
I live in the Mid-West and one time our town was said on Good Morning America and my mom was like Ohhmaguddd
When you're from a small Midwestern town, it feels nice to be acknowledged. A town about 30 mins away got mentioned in a book i read and i was excited. I think tue author lives in my town because she is from southeast Missouri (my area) and there is a girl at my school with the same very uncommon last name.
relatable
first time my city was mentioned in a book I was shocked
I was exchange student in Wisconsin last year and I'm coming back summer this year. I know everything will be okay. I'm foreigner so it's more exciting for me when I watch and read about cities in Midwest. :">
Hahaha EVERYTHING in this. I'm from MN... Anyone else??

Mia Druckrey HAHAH
Puppy chow is so good it's a gift given from the heavens
When you bump into someone and say “Ope”
It's involuntary lol.
Ranch is practically a religion.
Jared Green what about being nice
Seth this isn't Canada
Sameee
Omg I thought this was all normal 😂
It is normal ,don't change
SWEET PEA TV Same
Same especially the ranch
It is
SWEET PEA TV same 😂
As a person from Indiana, I can safely say that waving to someone and saying "hi" for no reason is very accurate
Same in Michigan.
Yah right! I smile, wave and say hi to EVERYONE.
My husband gets mad at me for always doing this. We girls will talk in the public bathroom stalls too.
Anonymous Human if you ever did that in California youd get a very rude dirty look 😂
Agreed.
Puppy chow is literally the best thing in the entire world
K but for real I’m like 20 and I still can’t help but play the license plate game. Like it physically pains me when I see an out of state plate and say nothing.
EvilBeagle Omg I point out foreign license plates but not as a game, just cause I like seeing tourists and other visitors. Saw some Cali and Arizona plates today.
Julia Crawford we call it the license plate game! It’s become almost like a tick or something for me
Yes
I do that on long road trips but that's it
TurtleKing777 OMG yess
ok...
how do you NOT know what puppy chow is...
Grow me something mister! I live in Wisconsin. I love puppy chow
Grow me something mister! It's like check cereal covered in powder suger
Grow me something mister! its basially chex cereal with some kind of chocolate or peanut butter filling i forget covered in powder sugar and it taste like heaven
Asstiel *pham* thank youuuu
the ranch thing is too true
HAHAHA ikr
I love ranch!!!
Yass

yes
The Midwest is like Hufflepuff, they both don’t get enough attention:(
EXACTLY
As a Midwesterner and a Hufflepuff, I feel this so hard.
@@CortexNewsService as an air breather, it hits me harder
The Midwest sucks. That’s why we don’t get enough attention
I am an American Harry Potter fan and I am developing my own American version of Harry Potter titled Mary Arianna Smith The Girl Who Lived and I want my version of the Illvermorny School to be as accurate as possible to actual North American cultures and to do much better than Rowling did !
There are way too many
Etc Etc’s to cover in a simple comment here but will say that my version of Illvermorny and MACUSA has no Statute Of Secrecy and Magical and Non Magical People are friends but not enemies for the most part and yes you can definitely tell what Magical People from the 5 different Regions of the United States are from they are more different from each than the Non Magic People from the 5 Regions of the United States are from !
And for some trivia Midwestern Witches of European descent often have Red hair, Fair skin tones and Attractive freckles and a very very pretty accent and way of talking and Do Not have hardly any dreams about engaging in The Dark Arts too much and it is the same way with there Midwestern Wizard of European descent counterparts too !
And finally most GOOD Slytherin’s and Pure Bloods come from North America it’s just those European ones that are the Voldemort and Bellatrix types !
Mary Smith is part Slytherin and part Hufflepuff but my version of Illvermorny has no Houses at all !
Let me know what you think about this !
WHERE ALL MY MICHIGANDERS AT???!!
YEAH!
Yessss
I am from Michigan
🖕Michigan hasn't won a game against Ohio state in like 10 yrs 😆
I live in Ohio but I'm I a Michigan football fan lol
Puppy chow is only a Midwest thing? Wow I feel bad for the people who haven't had it, it's delicious
artsyjamie what's is puppy chow ?
It's like melted chocolate and peanut butter mixed together with chex cereal then you coat the cereal in it and powdered sugar is sprinkled on top. It's really good
Brianna Roper It's a chex mix
artsyjamie sounds like a recipe for heart failure or diabetes
Tomisha Childs Chex Mix is this goo.gl/3ImxE5
this is Chex cereal(what you really use) goo.gl/79grGt
not one ‘ope’ was said in this video. i am upset
Same. Saying ope is a very midwestern thing.
How many Midwesterns understand the tragedy that no other states have cheese curds?
They're sold at Schnuck's in St. Louis, but you have to drive up to Wisco to get the real squeaky ones.
That is sad to me. Even more than finding out Cousin's Subs is only a midwest chain.
I have lived in Wisconsin my whole 16 years and I have no clue what any of this is, besides the puppy chow.
IggyGoneCrazy Best BF4 Content
Lexi1699 Same here, 16 years of my 16 years in Wisconsin, and didn't really get much of this.
Puppy chow as in chex mix dipped in chocolate and mix it with powder sugar and peanut butter sometimes.
LiquidThunder2121 in other words, Heaven
***** Its chex mix with a penutbutter chocolate covering dipped in powdered sugar. ITS HEAVEN
I've never called bean bags "corn holes". Am i a bad midwestern?

Sara . . . puppy chow the dog food?!?!?
Puppy chow is chex cereal with chocolate, peanut butter, and powdered sugar
Love the stuff, ima go make some...
Lindsey Corliss no, it's Chex, Nutella, and Powdered Sugar
When there is a tornado you just keep sitting and talking
Am I the only one who nods his head at people when we walk past each other?
Chicago Savage nope
Too introverted to do that lmao.
I gotcha fam! Also from Chicago
People Nod and smile at you most of the times when you walk past them here in Canada
Chicago Savage nope, you are not alone
This is 100% accurate. I have lived in Ohio my whole life. When we ask how you are we actually care how you are! Be honest! Lol
Janie Arledge Cinci for life!
Ohio is the best all around state. Mixes of Midwest, south, and northeast.
Ciel Phantomhive I live there too! :)
Janie Arledge Ohio isn't the midwest lol
Payne Gain um yeah it is
Michigan and Ohio State one is so true😂😂😂
EDIT: ty for all the likes!❤️
Kaitlyn B But I don't hate Ohio
Ubey Elliott no it’s like just the Michigan vs Ohio State stuff
Kaitlyn B Hmm
Yassss that one was hilarious😂😂😂
TRUTJ
you forgot that us people from the Midwest love going out and watching for a tornado before taking cover at the last moment lol
Really, no.
I am from Missouri. I did not realize that responding truthfully to "How are you?" was a Midwestern thing!! I didn't realize that we were overly polite/friendly until I moved to Florida and lived there for a few years. People seem much nicer here.
Also: I love puppy chow. I do go outside if there's a tornado watch/alert. Nothing over 50 Fahrenheit is cold.
That's actually an extrovert thing. Midwestern introverts aren't so inclined to answer with more than, "Good."
Missouri isn't Midwestern. It's Southern. Except for St. Louis, from what I understand. It was considered historically as a Northern city in the South.
@@karenbartlett1307 I am from St. Louis and it is definitely considered part of the Midwest
@@AtarahDerek In my case it depends on who is asking too
@@karenbartlett1307 Missouri is absolutely Midwestern. It's between the Mississippi and the Rockies, isn't it? People there say, "ope," don't they? Regions overlap. My state is Midwestern, Mountain AND Pacific Northwest. Technically, even Louisiana is in the Midwest.
MICHIGAN! 2 ft of snow yesterday, and beautiful sunshine today.
I live in Michigan so i def get the lake part
JillyBean same
JillyBean same
Same thing in Missouri. Lake weekends are the best!
JillyBean yup especially in the UP
Puppy chow, lemonade shakeups, and horseshoes are very popular in central Illinois. My friends and I smell like the lake and bug spray in the summer 😂😂😂😂😂
Ascension if this isn’t the truest thing I’ve ever heard in my life idk what is. Plus asking friends to go hangout but just getting in a car and driving around because central Illinois is just fields.
I live in Northern Illinois, it only takes like 40 minutes to get to Wisconsin. Puppy chow and lemonade shakeups are popular here too. Horseshoes are more popular in the country parts of Northern Illinois.
I live in western Indiana and at my fair there are lemon shakeups like in every other stand.
@@bugbysanders9651 I live in the far northeastern part of IL (about 10 min south of WI’s state line) and I see puppy chow being served at every party I go to
What is puppy chow? There’s no way you’re talking about actual puppy chow 😂
CHITOWN ILLINOIS. CHICAGO

jenna lee Indiana is a state??? jk 😂😂😂
Honestly. It's the state that everyone flies over. Which sucks because our state is beautiful if you stop and look around!
