Yeah. I've had that happen to me before.
For any trolls that might be reading this, I have to say: Good luck, you poor bastards.
For any Yoopers, best of luck with the hunting season.

Y is for Yooper
I've already written about my hometown, but this post is dedicated to the whole of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. It's a fairly big place, but there aren't that many major towns in the U.P. I sometimes think that the Lower Peninsula completely forgets that we exist sometimes. Nothing like going to a bowling tournament in Michigan and having people ask "Where's that?" when you say you're from the U.P.
Yeah. I've had that happen to me before.

As a fellow Yooper, I really enjoyed this post. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! :3
DeleteI've never met anyone in MI who didn't know what I meant when I said I was from the UP. I did have a friend who lived out of state ask how I got to the lower part. He didn't know there was a bridge connecting the two. One of my friends did, one time, have someone from Detroit insist that the UP was not part of MI.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it was just a brain fart on the account of the other girls. They might not have understood that we meant "the Upper Peninsula" when we said "UP".
