I lived in Wisconsin for the majority of my childhood, but then I moved to Idaho. Does that still count?

South Dakotan sticks head inside door Sup, neighbors!

Hiiii! I have extended family who are your neighbors to the north!

Sure, why not!

Hey, I say that, too! XD

Lol, that's awesome! It must be a Midwest thing, lol.

Lol. I heard it was an '80s or '90s thing… Which I neither lived in nor was born in.

Lol, same here. All I know is my family says that a lot (both sides, which is pretty strange). But then again, we also use slang from back in the 20s and 50s, so I don't know that to thing, lol.

Lol. My grandma says "You betcha" all the time. Since I lived w/her most of my life, I say it once in a while, too… Apparently, it's a stereotypical Minnesotan thing.

My family does the exact same thing!

Lol! What about "uffda"?

Oh definitely. Though we sometimes shorten it to a simple "oof". Add that to the accent, and the native Idahoans barely understand us, lol.

Lol. I don't have an accent compared to the more northern Minnesotans. I mean, it's slight, and different from, say, New Jersey, but not so… pronounced as it could be.

We did live up north a little bit, so that might be why. But it's kind of entertaining to be the only one in your class with a weird accent, lol. Especially since it was a theater class.

Lol. You could play the stereotypical Midwesterner! ;P

Lol, that would be awesome! Unfortunately the only play's we've had are Nightmare before Christmas, Alice and Wonderland, and now we're working on the Arabian nights. I'll have to suggest a play like that though, it would be pretty funny.
