Midwest Nice Part 2 

Jessica Repati can confirm, living in Minnesota I say this all the time lol

Eyup. Iowa here, we say it too. It's always that Dakota wind.

It's that north wind that gets ya. To the bone.

It's true everyone says that from anyplace where it snows I'm from Colorado and people always say that I'm like it's -25 outside wind or no wind it's cold alright lol

I’ve only ever said this in Wisconsin. In Michigan we had trees

Lol THE SCRATCH OFF MACHINE

We've all said "Ope sorry" to the scratch off machine in Kwik Trip at least once in our lives.

Me too

I've found my people.

SimulatedEmu or da time machine in da Kwik Trip. Dat one gets me every time!

I'm from Manitowoc WI and I was thinkin the exact thing !!

Me too!

Right...!? I mean... yeah....

yeah. i totally know amanda

Same. MN

I do that too.

You mean other people don’t do that?

The funny thing is that for the employee making a decision for a customer is likely the last thing they’d like to do at that time. We do it anyways! It’s a paradox of courtesy!

I worked at a Caseys for 8 years. If I was having a busy day and a customer said "Whatever's easiest" id give them water and tape a straw to the side of the cup.

That is soo true

Totally relate. Happens to me daily. Oh geez!

Tragedy amid the laughter - and snow.

This has happened to me so many times in Michigan

It's true

Are you guys all Christians? Jesus loves you all! I pray you all are Christian!

azlee vasquez ive said that quite a few times!

Me: “did you hop my border, yes we all did and we steal from you too, it’s ok we will enjoy sending you back.”

Yeah, I don't like causing a fuss over an incorrect order. I'll just eat it as is.

@@danieljennerman7549 Depends what it is. If I ordered the biggest, greasiest hamburger there and got a salad instead, I would like it fixed.

"God had a different plan for me today, I guess."

Northeast Iowa Here. Same With Us!!!

As another Nebraskan, I can confirm that as well. Say those phrases way too many times

Same for Illinois

Minnesotan here, people tell me I apologize too much, and I it takes everything within me not to reply with “sorry”

Kansas and it's "it's really not that bad out, it's the humidity that gets you".

Holding the door is certainly normal, and jogging to the door so it doesn't have to be held so long is also normal. I've learned to waive it closed. Usually.

Guy, I can’t tell ya how many times I say that to people

Molon Labe Same! it's so Midwest 😅

@@molonlabe9785 Me too!

Just last night, I felt bad for going into a restaurant 30 minutes before close and asked the person sweeping/cleaning where the easiest spot to sit was for them, so they didn't have to resweep it. I also left a good tip and finished my food before their closing time.

Peggy Rider you betcha der guy! I love how stereotypical he is but literally everything the guy says and does and how is me every day. The nice thing is, you don’t even have to stereotype midwestern kindness, it’s just common courtesy.

DevinMoe same here

its cause it is true.

😂 that’s why they say with the “wind chill” temperature is -25 😂

DevinMoe Hahah right?

Jesus loves you all! God bless you!

You just try to throw in "okay, well you take care now!" as you start heading the other direction, lol

Do they not them outside the Midwest?

@@tugboss0273 Correct! At least from the last time I checked

@@tugboss0273 Before this channel, I had no idea they existed. From the South. They seem to just exist in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Iowa

No the fact that it looks like almost every kwik trip, or kwik star (for you iowans) is a testament to how real it is

@@tugboss0273 We have Quik Trip here in Arizona. Dunno why it's spelled differently but yeah lol

Same with Germans ;)

I remeber a couple who had a ice cream shop in elkhart lake wis. They were from sweden i believe lol

Like the Nords that they are.

It wouldn't be that cold if it's not windy

Yep, my great-grandpa landed here from Sverde and went to Canada. Then to Ludington, MI. One-hundred years later, all of us descendants are still freezing our asses off..... :o)

Cali I literally apologized to a potted plant at work because I bumped into it 😂

It's such a reflex when I bump in to anything or anyone.

ATM Screen: "Thank you, have a nice day." Me: "Thanks, you too."

I feel exposed

I just posted the exact same thing on my FB. Glad I'm not alone.

Down by south milwaukee

Der folks you mean!!

I heard Cuttahay, which totally sounds like it could be a town here in Indiana

@@cashkromsupernerd1193 Nope, Cudahy.

home Patrick Cudahy....and Ladish Drop Forge

Charlie’s my guy😂😂

Hilarious--"just take my wallet". Literally, LOL

Oh, geez, dude! Dem's feudin' words!

Ope or those Packers against the shit Lions. The hostility

Being from Minnepop (Minnesota for your non pop people) I like the Packers and them are fighting words

Midwest nice?😐😂

lol! Well, it's not a perfect system.

And we always have to state the temperature taking into account the wind chill. It's 5 degrees out. 13 below with the wind chill.

The Colorado version of this is, "We need the moisture."

You’re a good man

lol what did you end up with

@@user-dd9qq1ru7s Some cheeseburgers :) I also never want them to make fresh cookies or hashbrowns on my account, so I ask if they have any ready first. On 3rd shift they have 1 person doing everything and I know how much that sucks.

Lol and you end up with cold fries and a burger patty that sat on the warmer for 3 hours.

ClickReportIfYouAre AcrybabyWhoLikesCensorship Better than them being inconvenienced by you

The fact that this happened in a liquor store is even more relatable 🤣

@@daniv8202 she was giving out samples and my brother and I were literally backing away, but too nice to say "gotta go"

Teehee it’s true! Moved from MI to FL 26 yrs ago. Midwestern people are the best!!! 😊👍👌

By the way, only northwest gulf coast Florida is Southern. The Peninsula is New York South.

Same here. Realized it when I moved to South Carolina. They call it southern hospitality, but its actually hostility and condescending.

real

Charlie is married.

So true. Been doin it for years.

And mowing that strip between the houses. It's just so easy to get their side too. Plus then the grass is the same height.

We water our neighbors gardens in the summer down South. Same idea, different season different activity. We'd clear their snow, too... IF WE HAD SOME!!!!! I'm just kidding, it snows here - in the mountains. Only in the mountains. And by snow I feel like I mean "any given tuesday" for y'all.

I just had a neighbor snowblow my walk yesterday. I'm in Colorado though, don't really know what the cultural mix out here quite yet.

The people who leave the midwest carry the nice with them. I now live in Colorado, and my next door neighbor uses his snow plow to plow my driveway. He says he likes to. I'm 82, and it is hard to reciprocate.

That was the most accurate thing on the video!

I say that all the time

Every year! The weather could be so nice, but nooooooo

It pretty much is! lol

WE NEED to bring back that word, its hilarious 😂

I thought it was a dresser in the front hall that you hung up your jackets on! 😂🤦‍♀️

My family always called the 3-seat couch "Davenport." I was a teenager before I ever heard the word "couch."

It IS the Midwest!

What part of the midwest are you from lmao

Northern Midwest (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas mainly)

I used to think it was sad until I moved away and found out everywhere else is full of selfish, anger jerks

North East is better this is fucking cringy so are people from the midwest

Perfection!

O p e

Ope right behind you, sorry, thanks.

@@deeb8733 oh youre fine

😂😂😂

Anthony me too 😂

Its cause we're just a bit more dumb than Canadians lol

@@Ritzynco I believe the proper parlance is 'more dumber'. Der, dat's better.

@@LQOTW I was actually going to put dumber but I caught myself and rephrased it.

Just come to Wisconsin when it's been a bit chilly for a while and then it gets above 35 or so and bam! Everyone is in shorts. 42 degrees and shorts. Or if the sun comes out period after it having been cloudy for a time.

So true! My grams was always chasing after me with a coat because I refused to wear one in winter.

Of course! Because 10 below really isn't that cold without wind. Especially if you're moving. Have a good one, okay?

@@JohannVII will do, and you as well

Ope I’m sorry

Laura Phelps I legitimately struggle with that 😂

LOL

Same in Michigan.

Same in North Dakota I’ve said this so many times?

I say the same thing in the winter but I’m in south central Texas. Guess it’s because I grew up in St. Paul and high school in Montana.

It’s not as great as you think

C'mon up n let us know when ya get here n I'll stop by with a casserole n some jello! With bananas in it of course!!! 😂

Don't let em fool ya.

Cold as balls in winter. They have gates ON THE FREEWAY and lock down the roads for snow, sometimes!!!

@Fluffhead ? Underrated reply.

I love how she was hitting on him and he seemed not to notice or figure it out.

Yuppers, it's in da blood.

And bring each others empty garbage cans back to the house...

gman77gas YES! And bringing over cookies and a beer to thank said neighbor! 🍻

I literally have 2 neighbors who think it's a race to see who can get out there and clear the snow off the whole block. I never have to shovel cuz of them. Love Wisconsin.

Yup...our neighbor did the end of our drive...before the plow hump froze rock hard...early this am on his way back from the other neighbors place. We lost that 'other' neighbor on New Years Day n his wife's in the nursing home now, but we've been pitching in doing his drive n keeping it clear for when the boys come back n sort thru stuff, etc. But ya...we all look out for each other. It's the NICE thing to do. 😊

@@countyseatadventures yep u just dont see this that much anymore. People helping others.

Shoulda had Chris Kroeze in da Kwik Trip picking up some Glazers n a 6 pk of Leinies before hittin' the ice!! 🍩🍻😅😅😅 But dats nice of Charlie to give credit to the random guy!! 😊 Ders dat nice thing happening again... 😍

I love kwik trip

If you live in the Midwest you just magically know it lol

Same here never understood all these querks I have. Now I understand it's from living in Minnesota. Now it makes sense.

Here in Cleveland it would be so cold I it wasn't for this darn wind I tell ya bud

@@brianmorris364 it's the wind off the lake. I moved from Cleveland to central western Wisconsin, 30 miles east of Minneapolis, and it gets cold here. Coldest outside my door was -37. Often we get a week or so with temps never getting above 0°.

@@Abandoned_Brane oh so that's nice that it's warmer there for ya 👍🏻 I've recorded -52 in Madison a few years back and we have also had some mutual week cold snaps like that when the polar vortex gets kickin

Kathryn TheMom I grew up in the U.P. of MI.. People are friendlier in the north! 😊

@@leedanielson7452 Snowbirds get their drives shoveled too.

Doctor Degenerate Literally?

MisterTwister yeah

Like, from maybe late October to around second week of May, then....? 🤔 😉✌️😎

And Minnesota but 5% more snow.

ᕦ(ಠ_ಠ)ᕤ

Finn McCool Charlie is out in LaLaLand also

I can see by your name you lived near state and division, or at least hung out there a bit...

....Illinois you say?

ha! that's funny... my name actually is finn mccool and i moved from LA to the chicago burbs and after 5 years here, I'm ready to go off grid. But I'll take Antarctica over LA and the fact that on any given day it can take you 2 and half hours to go 15 miles, or the insane cost of everything (like my wife's cousin spending more than my mortgage to rent a rundown studio apartment in north hollywood that's the size of my living room), or the even more insane politics there. Chicago/IL is corrupt as all get out but only in California will they completely ignore the massive homeless, drug, and theft problems all over the state to spend $90 million on a "wildlife crossing bridge" over the 101 freeway in a feeble attempt to help a now dead mountain lion cross the freeway safely - while simultaneously making it that much easier for coyotes, bobcats and other predators to make their way into neighborhoods to attack people and eat their pets because there's no food or water in the mountains amidst the unending drought... and the defense is "the animals were here first". The people running that state are legit insane. I couldn't make this shit up if I tried, but about 10 years ago there was actually a new law proposed to ban the sale of black cars because black attracts more heat, thus making people run the AC in their car more resulting in poorer gas mileage and creating more pollution. Fortunately, someone had enough sense to throw that out before it got to the ballot, but today, I wouldn't be surprised if that passed. Newsome is definitely getting paid off by PG&E to push the electric agenda there, knowing full well that their infrastructure can't support it. You can't even endure a heatwave there without rolling brownouts, so yes, makes perfect sense to ban gas vehicles, gas appliances, and wood burning fireplaces to make everyone completely dependent on electricity, so when the power goes out you have nothing to make food unless you have a BBQ. And soon enough they'll ban those because some inconclusive study claims it causes cancer and asthma in babies, and the smell of meat cooking on your grill is offensive and infringes on the civil liberties of your militant lesbian vegan neighbor. I always say "if you love LA, you haven't lived there long enough.". With enough time, the novelty will wear off and the hours upon hours of your life wasted in traffic or circling blocks trying to find parking only to not read the 15 posted signs correctly and still get a parking ticket, or the unending months of oppressive 95* heat with 40mph winds, brush fires, bums breaking into your car to steal your shit over and over and over, more traffic, no straws, no plastic bags, more traffic, oh and your lease is up? yeah... we have to up the rent another $200 a month because we need to make renovations, more traffic, oh and there are new taxes on corporations this year so the company won't be able to pay out bonuses or raises as a result... oh look! it's "winter time" which means it's dropped from 100* to 80* and windy and we need to switch to the "winter blend" of gas, that's gonna be another 40 cents a gallon. Ope! whattya know it's January 1st there's another gas tax increase, you're now paying 70 cents a gallon in taxes on gas that's already the highest in the country. Oh and one more thing... since so many people have switched to electric cars, we're not getting as much gas tax revenue so we're gonna have to raise your registration 50%, and we might even have to start charging your 4 cents a mile to drive in CA. Look that one up, it's coming. I could keep going... But hey, at least you don't have to wear a parka or shovel your driveway anymore. So ya got that going for ya!

THAT'S the comment I was looking for! As a kid I could never figure out what my grandma was taking about. "...Oh it's sitting on the davenport dear". What the hell is THAT?! I'd wander around for 15 mins searching. Or credenza.

I thought it was called a futon

N don't forget where dars a davenport there's prob a hassock too!! 😅😂😅

I thought it was a city in Iowa

@ Paul Pascoe Davenport is a city in Iowa. That's what I thought too. But then another Midwest Nice video translated it as "couch." My hunch--all the couches that ended up in the houses in Minnesota, Wisconsin and UP Michigan for some weird reason were all shipped up from Davenport (it's a large port on the Mississippi River) back in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Hence why that name stuck to couches...

Oh, ya gadda love da squeaky cheese, hey.

Miss do squeaky cheese curds. 😭

The cheese curds MUST be squeaky.

I'm a flipping fib and I know the cheese curds gotta squeak or you ain't going to the right gas station

Ya, sher

"U know what I'll just have an empty cup please. No i'll still pay for the coffee just the empty cup though please. Actually wait that means one less cup for customers after me. You know what, here just take my money. No im good i dont need anything. Thank you."

@@saxenas 😂😂😂😂😂

But he didnt get the chocolate milk.

He just gave him the card for keeps, so no lol

Henry Kabat I nearly did that the other day and stopped myself because I thought it’d be like robbing the guy

Think how many hotdogs someone could get if they hung around the pumps all day and swiped their rewards card for people pumping gas!

Well sure...but do you know how many coupons he just gave that guy!? xD

korynnininm same

korynnininm the word is “legitimately” not “legit”. That’s not even the correct word. Legitimately would imply that it was certified, permitted, possibly even sanctioned by someone important. Lol. Like when people say “literally” and they mean “seriously”. Needless lol. Rhetoric is funny.

@@pdubzpyro ok sure

I'd get my dna looked at if I were youse, buddy.

Youbetchya!!!
