Description
I dunno how accurate any of this stuff is.I only live here, after all.
Haha but really, this is all just stuff I heard. <3
And like, I've only lived in one of these places, and my experiences with the people from other places hasn't been immense or anything, so if my generalization of a region is just toootally off, I'm sorry. xD
Also, my spelling of "yooper" is just phonetic; I have no idea if that's how it actually goes. xD
When I think east, the first thing I think is Detroit, which makes me think GANGSTAS, but I know a couple people from the better parts around Detroit, so... Have the strange middle-ground of baggy sweaters and beanies.
When I think west, I think Grand Rapids, which makes me think conservative businessmen and also art students and art and also art, and I'm not gonna draw a businessman, so. Have the smokin' (literally) kid in a hoodie.
And the U.P. makes me think of huntin' and wilderness. And mountain men?
I don't even.
WEARING HOODIES IS COOL.
KEEPING BOTH YOUR HANDS IN YOUR HOODIE POCKETS IS EVEN COOLER.
Also, for some reason there is Mackinac Bridge, Mackinac Island, and Mackinaw City?
And they're all pronounced "mack-in-awe"?
Why, Michigan.
Why.

Huh?!? How come I didn't know this and I live in Michigan! And that is true, I live on the east side, and I call myself a Michiganian. I saw a comment on YouTube, and it makes sense now that I know why they said, "Michigander". And LOL, now I'm a Michiganian, Michigander, AND a Troll! I am like a troll to my family. Cuz I mess w/ everyone.

when I show people on my hand where I'm from, I make an awkward claw above the other hand and it confuses them usually.
