Emma Is ugly but nice

Used to really mean genuinely nice, open, thoughtful and caring. Politically progressive, socially aware, doing for others, wanting to learn about other people and cultures.
I came to Minnesota 30 years ago, from New York City, where I grew up. New Yorkers aren't rude, we are just honest and efficient. I had had problems with passive aggressive people from other places who were "nice" to your face and back stabbing. So I was naturally leery of these Minnesota people. But no, they were really nice.
But things have been changing, even here. It is very sad to an aging peace/love hippie idealist. Still lots of cool folks though. Cool, like the weather.

When my new neighbor asked about my ethnic background, I thought she was prejudiced, but she was just being Minnesota nice and wanted to learn more about me.
I think a lot of Minnesota nice originated with the Scandanavian social customs and the need to pull together to survive the harsh winters during pioneer times.
Our late Senator Paul Wellstone was being Minnesota nice when he said "We all do better when we all do better."

An expression used after a friend says something particularly stupid, potentially by accident, and does not realize it. However, it must be brought to the friend's attention in the form of light-hearted ridicule.
"I think that I injured my trapezoid muscle at the gym last night."
"Do you mean your trapezius muscle?"
"Oh yeah"
"Nice head!"

The majority of people who are SELF DEFINED as "nice guys" are usually weirdos that try to act nice in order to hide their awkwardness and pervertness thinking they can fool other people and especially girls. After failing to get positive attention from both males and females instead of trying to actually solve their mental problems they usually end up blaming the society that prefers "assholes" over "nice guys".
The term nice guy has a very positive meaning when used to describe an other person (assuming they do not have in mind the definition above)

-Even if you screw up big time, instead of blaming you and acting like an asshole John will forgive you and help you move forward. He is such a nice guy!
(Someone talking about a genuinly nice guy)
-Even though Im kinda shy I always act nice, never swear and never get into fights girls always ignore me. Why do they prefer assholes instead of nice guys like me?
(A weirdo self proclaimed as a "nice guy" wondering why he can't get laid)
