The Midwest Is A Whole Different Place, And This Account Shows That Perfectly (30 New Pics)
We named most of the regions in America after the cardinal directions. There's the West, the South, and the East. Yet there's no North, is there? You never hear somebody from Indiana or Wisconsin saying, "I'm from the North." Only characters from Game of Thrones say that.
We call the North Central states the Midwest. And the Midwest is a special place: with its Great Lakes, gently rolling hills and plains, and its famous sayings and phrases. It's so special, in fact, that there's a meme page dedicated to it, titled "Midwest Vs. Everybody." So, here's a selection of a few we think you might like, even if you're not a Midwesterner yourself.

P-platers (permit licence) in my state have to have 0 blood alcohol and I could definitely see a similar problem occurring here!
Michigan here: "Let's see...spend $600 on two round trip tickets then have no car and rent one, or drive 15-20 hrs each way for $200 and have MY car to use".
I'm so glad we are not allowed to buy fireworks in my state in Australia. The stories from my dad when they had them for bonfire night (which we also don't have now) and my general knowledge of bogans and other idiots in my state tells me it's a good thing!
There's a saying that Canada has two seasons: winter and construction. Guess it's the same in the midwest
I don't live in either of those places, but I definitely accept compliments that way. 🤷♀️
Small town Michigan, where I spent my summers with my Grandparents! Against which all towns have been measured, and have failed. It's been many years of measuring, I'm 73.
Also why most midwestern people have a survival kit in at least one of their nine vehicles
Preparation for the world's biggest fondue dinner when the sun engulfs the earth.
Where I live that's the difference between Target and Target Country stores.
Though with the planet warming, spring and fall are far shorter than` they used to be. Warm,warm,warm,..cold. Cold,cold,cold,warm. Not as gradual as it was.
To be fair the jello mold "salads" look like they can kill anyone anywhere 😵
Menards, if you are wondering, is a home improvement chain which is a toy store for adults.
Chinese restaurant lady in Nebraska who said she wanted to move to Texas. I told her it was hot most of the year, and she said that's not a problem. Here, she said, the wind never stops blowing.
Drinking while sitting in a tiny, floorless house, staring at a hole in the ice.
I don't think this would work about the d**k and balls graffiti people supposedly do around them in London
Lived in Fla for a time. Cut 1/2 the back yard, in August, came in for some ice water. GF's Dad, visiting from Mich said "Can't do the whole thing at once? Huh".. one pass down, one back, and he DRAGs himself in and promptly pours a hot COFFEE. "Damn it's hot here". "Yup", go out, finish back and 1/2 the front.
But there is a Kansas City, Kansas. Makes me want to say: Kansas City, Kansas City, Kansas City, Kansas City, Kansas City, Kansas City, Kansas City, Kansas City, Kansas
The song was playing on my TV in the background as I read this. I'm dead.
Tuna or chicken salad sandwiches made with Ranch as a base are the ultimate! Don't knock it until you try it.
Isn't this just the general historic building style for commercial areas? Most old shops where I live are attached and we also have a lot of inner city suburban homes are still row housing.
I assure you, this isn't just a midwest thing. Only thing missing is the shredded lettuce
Not sure that's the correct photo, but there's a park just like that two blocks from my house in Indiana
Can anyone translate the caption into "Something a middle aged Brit understands"?
To be clear, the 85 mph is one 45 mile stretch of a tollway, Texas 130. The rest of the tollway is only 80 mph.
Actual definition: 1. In between the Rockies and the Appalachian’s. 2. Didn’t side with the Confederacy (so Missouri barely qualifies, and Oklahoma is excluded because the Cherokee sided with the South)
