[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Welp" is a folksy way to start a sentence like "Well,..." with an air of resignation. The internet/social media/peak Twitter (like ten years ago) have desperately wanted to make it out to be some great midwestern thing, but it's kind of not. I've lived in Michigan for 25-ish years (Ann Arbor and Detroit suburbs) and have never heard it here. "Ope" is a way of saying "oops, I'm sorry" that's supposedly common to the upper Midwest. I've heard it here in southeastern Michigan from exactly one person -- a former coworker from Michigan's Upper Pennisula who used to bust out his UP talk from time to time.
