Sounds like Upper Michigan too.

And all sentences end with "Ay", as in "It sure is cold, ay?"

I've seen a variation of that before. It is funny

. I remember how surprised and amused I was when I first moved to MN and saw "extra mild" salsa on the grocery store shelf. May as well just use ketchup!

You sure you're not talking about Wisconsin? They have some jawbreaker town names too. Oconomowac, Minaqua, etc.

It's spelled "eh" in Canada.

That is TOTALLY true! Yah, I'm a Minnesotan girl...a couple that should be added is: If yah is included in almost every sentence, 50 degrees is weather for shorts and t-shirts, and (no offense to anyone down south) you laugh at remarks that consist of southerners thinking that 25 degreed is cold!

There are many more, those are just a couple I could think of...I just love livin in Minnesota!

Have any of you heard the song Livin' In Minnesota (it is a remix of Livin' La Vi Da Loca)?

Steph and Jes

I can identify ...

I may not live in these towns, but these towns do exist here in MN: Embarrass, Fertility, Nowthen .. and so on. Even Jay Leno talks about Fertility every now and then.

I never get picked on though. I live to pick on Wisconsinites though
