I went on BuzzFeed earlier and found an article that made me laugh so hard!

It is titled, "28 questions Midwesterners should answer that are funny because they are true"

I am going to answer these because why not?! They are hilariously true.

**All questions are exactly how they wrote it in the article. Credits are at the bottom**

1-"Why does everyone from the Midwest call "milk" "melk"?

I have always pronounced it "melk" and I never knew people outside the Midwest call it "milk." I don't think I could ever say "milk."

2-"Someone asked me this week why Midwest people always say "ope" when you bump into them and I really wish that I knew?"

I'm not sure but everyone does it. It's apart of our accent that people always point out.

3-Why does everyone from the Midwest know each other... they can literally say one name and instantly yeehaw bond?"

There are a lot of small towns so people are related to everyone! I ran into my 4th cousin, that I didn't know, in Target the other day! My grandma introduced me so thank you grandma!!

4-Why do people in the Midwest find it necessary to argue where it's colder...we're all suffering?"

I am guilty of doing this but every Midwestern is too! It's just fun arguing over nothing especially when your bored at home because of the weather.

5-Why does everyone in the Midwest, myself included m, say buh-bye?"

Never realized I did this until now. It's another part of our accents.

6-"Why does every town in the Midwest use "The Walmart" as a landmark like you could say "oh yeah I live by The Walmart" and everyone would know what your talking about?"

It's just how it is. If there is a Walmart in the proximity of your house then it is the easiest way to find it.

7-"why does everyone in the Midwest have a second fridge in their garage when the whole garage is a fridge for half the year?"

(Laughing really hard at this one) The fridge in the garage is for sodas and drinks. Also it is for extra meat we get from hunting/fishing. One other thing, a lot of people have heated garages in my town.

8-"Why does everyone in the Midwest forget how to drive when it starts snowing? You were BORN to withstand these conditions, get a grip."

It is terrifying sometimes driving in a blizzard. Try it before you question it.

9-"Tell me why almost every Midwest household has a beach themed bathroom?"

Semi true. If you have a house by the lake, a lake house, then yes it will most likely be a beach themed bathroom. Not sure why though.

10-"I don't understand why Midwest people pronounce caramel "Carmel"

I will never say caramel. It is pronounced "Carmel" always at all times.

11-Why do people from the Midwest love taking pictures in obscenely big chairs?"

Have you ever took a picture in a obscenely big chair? If you have been lucky enough to have this thrill then you know.

12-Why does everyone from the Midwest older than 30 call restaurants and store names possessive?"

Not sure why but it happens.

13-"Why does everyone from the Midwest have an Uncle Dick. Why is that a universal thing?"

That is not true at all. No one I know has an Uncle Dick. I don't even know anyone by that name.

14-"Why does everyone from the Midwest say "just sayin" it's so weird."

People just do. I say it all the time. You mostly say it when you tell someone something that can offend them. I even say it when it shouldn't offend another person!

15-"My life's greatest mystery is why people in the Midwest pronounce the candy Reese's like reeseee's"

Hold the phone a minute! How else do you pronounce Reese's? I say it reeseee's and I haven't heard it another way. That is so weird! I can't even think of another way to say it. Please tell me how it is pronounced other places, I really need to know!

16-"Midwesterners be like:
  
No yeah=Yes

Yeah no=No

Yeah no for sure=Definitely"

No yeah this is how it is here.

17-Thought of the day: Why does everyone in the Midwest love ranch so much? I mean I love it too but like why us?"

Ranch is delicious and should be put on a lot of things. We put it on any kind of meat, vegetables, and pizza. Ranch is the best condiment!

18-"Why does everyone outside the Midwest pronounce WI as "Wistconsin?"

I'm not sure how people say it outside the Midwest but here it is "Wisconsin".

19-"WHY DOES EVERYONE WALK SO SLOW IN THE MIDWEST"

I DON'T KNOW WHY. WE LIKE TO TAKE IT ALL IN UNLESS WE ARE LATE FOR CLASS. ALSO WHY ARE WE YELLING?

20-"Why does everyone in the Midwest talk in miles? Like "oh yea the city's 30 miles away" why does that mean?"

Because we can ;) People outside the Midwest will have markers along the way. You can say, "Oh yeah it's past this town/city." We can't say that. From here to another town, 60 miles away, there is nothing but fields.

21-"Why do ppl from the Midwest struggle with the concept of sunscreen?? They be coming back from vacation looking like Mr.Krabs"

We don't want to stop doing the fun stuff we can't do in our town. I got back from the lake yesterday and I have a huge sunburn because I didn't apply sunscreen. Or maybe I'm just not used to ultra sun in like Florida.

22-"Why does everyone in the Midwest Snapchat a storm as if everyone else in the Midwest isn't also out on the porch looking at it?"

Why else are you gonna do when your stuck at home for the 1000 time because of snow? You have already done everything possible in the past.

23-"Why is it that every person in the Midwest is required to have at least one piece of camo apparel? What are you guys all hiding from?"

Your not required to but everyone does. We hunt and fish a lot and for hunting you wear camo. It is a fashion choice.
We are hiding from all the city people.

24-"Why does everyone in the Midwest have a pair of roller skates? Someone buy me a pair"

There is nothing to do but go to the pool (that is nothing but water. No slides or diving boards or anything.) every summer. It's something to do.
Also I am broke so no❤️

25-"ppl from the Midwest be "why would I fly when it's only a 15 hr drive?"

A 15 hour drive isn't that bad! Everyone has dogs or other animals they bring along on trips. No one wants to fly with them.

26-"Also why do people from the Midwest complain about snow sm. Like "ugh we're getting more snow." Well what did you expect KAREN? The weathers been like this your whole life, if you haven't learned by now then LEAVE"

Would you complain about getting more snow when you already have 3 feet? Also would you complain if you thought it was supposed to finally be hot, in May or June, but you get snow again?
Also I'm sorta forced to live here and I literally can't move yet.

Edit: I feel bad lol, I sorta got mad and sound rude. I could rant about this for hours.

27-"Why do old people in the Midwest think adding bacon to every dish is a personality trait?"

Not sure why but bacon is really good in a lot of dishes. It adds so much.

28-"Why does everyone in the Midwest think the problem can always be solved with fried food?"

Because it can. (Also cookie salad can solve more problems than fried food)

That is all the questions in the article! Those made me laugh because I get them a lot when I leave the Midwest.
