Ask A Minnesotan

[Why-Gnome-Ear-Fifty 400]

This could be "Ask ynomir50," but that would just match all of the other Asks, wouldn't it?

 

So It's AMA, but I'd love questions about Minnesota even more than personal ones (which are cool too though, anything really) just to get those crazy Minnesotan stereotypes in your head. XD

 

Come at me, bro!

It's been surprisingly sunny. Which is very odd, but it is the end of May, and we already had our once-a-year Snow in Late Spring.

 

Minnesota is smack dab in the middle of nowhere, slightly off of Narnia. Or, for simplicity's sake, North Midwest US.

Do you believe, like I do, that the Twins suck, Wild suck, Vikings suck, Timberwolves suck, and the Golden Gophers suck? Also throw in U. Minn-Duluth Bulldogs too because they stole the NCAA Hockey Championship from us last year.

Has anyone ever been so far as to decide what to do more like?

Where exactly should I go when I finish downloading LoL in about 30 minutes?

Oh, absolutely. I decided when I was a little kid to support other teams because Minnesota teams are too mainstream (in Minnesota, this was back when we had KG and the Wild were fine and Mauer was in his prime, Randy Moss/Culpepper were great, etc.) That might have been one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Minnesota does try to pride itself for its hockey though. And our Men's Basketball ain't that bad....

You should play through tutorials and then wait for me to finish my project so I can help you

Are you aware that the GREATEST Christmas movie of all-time, Jingle All the Way, was filmed in downtown Minneapolis/St. Paul?

I don't watch like any movies, so no. I should be ashamed of myself, huh? Never even heard of that movie.

Have you ever been to the Mall of America, and if so, what is it like? I'm going to Minnesota for vacation, so I'd like to know. Thanks in advance.

Yeah, plenty of times. It's really big. And there are a lot of stores. Imagine your basic Malls wherever you live, then take 4 of them, put them together, and add a huge theme park in the middle. Pretty sick.

They're not funny, because there is no such thing as soda in Minnesota. It's Pop. It's all pop, and soda is wrong.

WUT DEW U MEEN?

 

or as normal people type it, what do you mean- actually, I can understand that. Most people (that I've met at least) think their state is boring. Personally, I love my state, even though not a lot happens here.

It snows a lot. And it snows a bit more. And then it gets up to like 90 degrees and snows again the next day.

 

And we have a lot of bad sports teams.

 

Minnesota in a nutshell.
