*Midwesterners validating weather*
-20 out: “it wouldn’t be that cold without the wind”
99 degrees: “i’m only sweating because of the humidity”
20 degrees: “honestly if ya stand in the sun it’s not that bad”
47 degrees: driving with the windows down bc it’s finally “nice out”

Friday nights for kids in the Midwest:
“Meet at McDonald’s”
“I’m bored let’s go drive around”
“Bonfire party tonight”
*Walking around Walmart or the
mall for fun*
“Let’s go to Steak ‘n Shake”

8 levels of midwestern anger
8. “Woah woah woah”
7. “Hold your horses”
6. “Jeez Louise”
5. “Listen here pal”
4. “If I had a nickel for every time”
3. “Well, now wait a minute”
2. “For Pete’s sake”
1. “Son of a gun”

midwest culture is:
-driving with the windows down when it’s 47 degrees out bc “it’s
finally nice outside”
-saying goodbye 20 times and standing around talking for another half hour while slowly inching your way out the door
-apologizing to your car after hitting a pothole
32
Midwesterners love to say the following things at restaurants:
- (when the line is getting long behind them) “We came at the right time!”
- (when getting the check) “Alright, what’s the damage?”
- (coming out of the bathroom) “You ready to rock and roll?”
33
Midwestern folk units of measurement:
Next door= 1-2 miles
Right up the road= 5-10 miles
Up North= 15-100 miles
A couple miles= 10-20 miles
Not too far= 20-50 minutes
A little ways= over an hour
A pretty good drive= 2 hours +
Drive down there= literally any direction
34
Mother Nature: you cannot have -46 wind chills Wednesday and then 52 degrees on Monday, that’s a 96 degree switch.
Midwest: hold my corn

Shorts and hoodie weather this week. If you see a Midwesterner smiling and enjoying themselves, leave them be. This is a spiritual time for us.
