Minnesconsin

Minnesconsin is the area of far-western Wisconsin that is really close to Minneapolis/St. Paul. About half of the people from this area are originally from Minnesota, and the rest are from Wisconsin. Either way, the people of Minnesconsin go to Minnesota for pretty much everything that isn't groceries or booze, especially clothes, employment, and the airport. The cities of Minnesconsin especially include Ellsworth, Hudson, New Richmond, Prescott, River Falls, and Somerset. Although far from Minneapolis, Superior can also be considered part of Minnesconsin due to its proximity to Duluth. Minnesconsin is a very common place for Packers/Vikings border battle disputes. Lots of people from Minnesconsin are even fans of both the Packers and the Twins, illustrating how this region has many things in common with both Minnesota and Wisconsin. The typical town in Minnesconsin will have a good mix of Packers/Vikings fans.

At an office in Downtown Minneapolis:

- "Wow, you have quite the commute!"

- "Yeah, I'm from Minnesconsin."

At a Twins game:

- "Why the hell are you wearing a Packers hat here with your Twins shirt?"

- "I'm from Minnesconsin. I love the Twins, but the Vikings are trash. Go Pack, go!"

minnesota ball slap

Slapping one's balls with any icy hand that's been held in the freezer for a minimum of 10 minutes.

I'm still sore and a little chilly from Gerry's malevolent minnesota ball slap last night!

Minnesotan Goodbye

Standard method of departing a Minnesotan social event or interaction. After a person announces he or she is leaving, person and host proceed to talk for 30 - 60 more minutes in the doorway or parking lot before leaving. Length of time between announcement of departure and actual exit is directly proportional to length of the relationship and inversely proportional to the outdoor air temperature.

Lars: "Well we better head out, great party, though. Awesome beer."

Sven: "Oh fer sure, the beer was home brewed, donchaknow."

*Lars and Sven stand in Erik's foyer and go on a tangent about microbrews for an hour.

Lars: "Oh look at the time, sorry to do a Minnesotan goodbye!"

Minnesota

People:
Nice. Minnesotans are nicer if you went to highschool/college with them. Out-of-staters don't do so well. To be really accepted, you have to be from here.
Weather:
Winter:
IT'S COLD. Somehow, the cold in MN will freeze the marrow in your bones. You will wonder why the HELL you live here every morning.
Minnesotans pride themselves that it only gets "cold" here when it hits negative temperatures. We get excited when it gets above freezing.
Summer:
Best summer in the world. Lakes, flawless temperature, sunny. Birds singing and blue skies. Ice cream and popcorn at Lake Harriet. Canoeing in the Boundary Waters. Going to the cabin. Life is really good.
Spring/Fall: Normal.
Recreation:
We know how to have a good time. We aren't all about ice fishing. We can have raging parties. Come to MN, make the right friends, and enjoy.
We also have the Mall of America, which kinda spoils us.
The Twin Cities=AWESOME. You want metropolitan, cool, and all the amenities of a Chicago/New York City without the stress. Minneapolis. Urban shops, cool boutiques, weird hole-in-the-walls, amazing band venues.
More artsy, alternative? St. Paul. Rich in history and art, all the hipsters love St. Paul.
Sports:
Overall, our sports teams are OK. Our biggest asset is the Vikings, which as of 2011, sucked, but Vikes fans bleed gold and purple. We are the best fans in the world.

Kid: I'm from California.

Kid #2: I'm from Kansas.

Minnesota Kid: I'm from Minnesota.

Everyone: *DAMMMNNNN*

Minnesota Twins

The Twins only won the World Series twice, in 1987 and 1991. They went in 1965 but got beat by the Dodgers in 7 games.

I like the Minnesota Twins because they win games and don't buy championships like the Yankees, but can we please get a new fucking stadium?
