[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another Michigander here and never heard of the sayings welp or ope.  The only exception might be the UP.  In the lower peninsula no one says these things. I wouldn’t call UofM Midwestern nice.  Too many 1) east coast snots 2) [b]ostentatious metro Detroit kids[/b] [/quote]

You’re going to blow a lot of coastal minds by claiming metro DETROIT people are excessively show-offy. [/quote]

DP.  Just ostentatious by MI standards.  Meaning some not only have the funds to buy a Canada Goose parka but live within 75 miles of the store at Somerset Collection.  And have heard of the brand.

So able to head nod with the 1%er kids from NYC.[/quote]

No, by any standard.  Money goes WAY farther in Michigan.  A $1-3 million dollar house in metro Detroit is obscenely over the top and showy, and there are a lot of those. As where a similar priced home on East coast can be pretty down to earth [/quote]

The problem in Michigan is, where do you work? And food luck finding a high level position if you did not grow up there.[/quote]
