I'm Minnesotan and I laughed at it all, but I laughed the most at "You think we eat Lutefisk? .. Everyday!" and "It's the middle of April, it's beautiful out, like -15"
You know that time right after the snow melts and everything is all brown and ugly and muddy? That makes winter, summer, and fall the most beautiful seasons in Minnesota. There are no beautiful springs.
Funfact, we change the "T's" in the middle of the word to "D's" (most words, but not all). Minnesota = Minnesoda, British = Bridish, and Lutefisk = Ludefisk.
That's true cause I used to live their thinking about moving back now but one summer it got up to 104° degrees I couldn't even go to the park cause the sand there burned the shit out of me
January? Not that cold? I've always considered January the coldest, and I've lived in MN my whole life. I'm central, btw. Right smack dab in the middle of Minnesota. (How about that -50 weather huh)
When I think of Minnesota I think of the books and films about the family from Sweden who immigrated to America, They lived in Minnesota. It was a tragic story.
it has snow, it also has the largest granite, deposit in the usa, and largest iron ore producer in usa, largest mall in usa, largest copper deposit in the world, over 15,000 lakes but 5,000 were man made so thats why we say 10,000, the first successful heart transplant ever was in mayo clinic in minnesota, we are supposedly nice people which i dont know really know how other people aren't nice in other states probably because i usually focus on the good things they say and not pay attention to the rude things, and more
The only thing missing in your accent is "you betcha'". Why the hell does everything think Minnesotans all say "you betcha'"? I've only lived here 5-6 years and i've maybe heard that twice.
The Halloween part cracked me up. I remember my mom bringing us trick or treating during the big snow storm in 91. Maybe it's only rural northern Minnesotans where all of these stereotypes are true.
Bro I'm a Minnesotan and I can say that everything he says is 100% TRUE and yes that's how everyone dresses I'm mean like who where's pants anymore right
Ah, that’s a good one! You betcha! 🤪 here in north central Ohio, I see folks going to the store in shorts when the temp gets in the mid 30’s and the suns out! You roll down the car window to get some fresh air!
Hello, Lutfisk eats Swedes at Christmas, an old tradition from when we were poor and needed to save resources throughout the year. The weather looks like a normal spring day, perfect for some sunbathing and a fire to grill sausages. Lovely accent you have, sounds like when I try to speak English :-)
hahaha! i grew up in MN. and i can always tell I'm there when i go to visit and people are wearing shorts when its 30 degrees. haha! This is a fun video! Thank you!
@The hotdish one. I love hotdish, my entire family loves hotdish, we have hotdish for every get together on my uncle's farm because it's delicious(Staying true to the Minnesotan stereotypes xD)
a story from a minnesotan- so it was around the end of april, almost may, and most of the snow has combined with dirt to make snirt(snow-dirt). so i’m going to bed thinking “man, it’s gonna be like 50 degrees(Fahrenheit) imma wear my my hoodie and jeans (because i’ll wear it even if it’s 100 degree out or -30 degrees out) or maybe my shorts and a t-shirt. i wake up and look out my window and see... well i don’t all i see is a big pile of good ol’ snow, like the turn on screen from your phone, and i’m just like “welp nevermind”
Listen to how you say "water", "roof" and "bag" just to name a few. You're probably pronouncing water like wader, roof like ruff, and bag like b-ay-g. These are just some examples of a Minnesotan accent. Also as a fellow Minnesotan, I can attest to people not talking like this in the city, but further north the accents get heavier and heavier.
As a Minnesotan i can say the warmest it's been is like super warm its like -20 people say it is really cold but ill be wearing my winter shorts when their in snow ants what even are snow pants i don't know how they weren't sweating in pants
I've got a nice pair of winter shorts myself. They go great with my favorite winter hoodie, you know. It's even better when you see someone with the unzipped down parka. Happens.
I was one of those kids who showed up to school in shorts. We had recess in negative degree weather and I was showing up in shorts😂 moved to Kansas and I’ve got a T-shirt and shorts while everyone is gettin out those heavy winter coats over sweaters over a long sleeve shirt😂
I live in Brazil and used to live in MN. Much better MN winter than south Brazil summers at 120 degrees fahrenheit and cold humid winters with no heating at all.
I am a native northern Ohioan who lived in northern Minnesota and North Dakota for about 10 years. I moved to the tropical south (Kentucky). The folks here panic over an inch of snow. What tiny bits of winter that happen cause major messes because people don’t know how to handle it while I treat it like a spring day in St. Paul.
Im from minnesota and here is my opinion: 1) What is Lutefisk 2) Never to cold to go trick or Treating 3) No accent 4) I dont know how... 5) I love Hotdish 6) Ok maybe... 7) True 8) Nope Wrong 9) Thats canda... XD 10) Nope done once 11) xDDDD 12) Wait... No 12....
I remember during the Super Bowl last year I heard people from like Florida and stuff were being such babies about the cold and I’m over here wearing shorts
Ya ya, you can sure betcha. Uffda he hit on so many good points there don'cha know. This is very informative and will be enjoyed by many Minnesotans and others from around the country.
April in Minnesota is exactly like that. Once it was going to be 7°F and me and my friend were freaking out and I told my friend in Cali and she looked at us like we were crazy. Also we wear shorts 24/7 no matter what the temp.
Minnesotans have accents I lived in Minnesota my life and still do but how we get accents is we say are a's and o's longer than most people but we don't know we do that because we lived here for ever and don't hear it
I live in Minnesota you just made us sound worse than they think we do and once you started to make fun of our accent after you just started talkng in then accent the rest of the video
I read there are many Finnish, Norwegian and Swedish Americans living inside the state of Minnesota and I'd like to ask can it be seen there? Can the Scandinavian influence be seen in Minnesota? Are there still Scandinavian communities? I'm asking because I live in Finland.
