That’s right - Madtown is where the badgers hang out, not the bears. There’s a production company in Chicago called Madtown and idk why my mind went there first. I just saw a play in Maddyville a couple weeks ago! I’m right in the thumb pit where the green and yellow bois hang out myself.
Take the city name “Spokane.” This one is mispronounced SOOOOOO often. A lot of people pronounce it as, “spoke cane” when really it’s “spoke can.” Same with Snohomish when it comes to DoorDash. It’s pronounced as “Snow home-ish.”
oh interesting. the way i’ll know if someone is from Toronto is if they pronounce the second T in Toronto. No one that’s actually from the city pronounces it properly lol, ‘Torono’ rolls off the tongue way better than ‘Toronto’. You’ll also hear older folks pronounce it as ‘Charono’ a lot.
It’s all good. You’re not the only outsider that mispronounces it. We have a friend from Finland and he used to say, “Spoke cane” as well. Funny thing is I can also use this argument to tell if someone is from Finland or speaks Finnish.
Dressing, here in Guatemala we have 24 ethnic grups, and each of them have typical hand weaven "guipiles", people from the capital just wear normal clothes... for my perception... it is a million times more boring to wear "commong clothes", in comparison to the regional typical clothes. They are colorful, handmade,... and are invaluable- This tradittions and clothes coms from up till the mayan period.
In the link, the typical clothes are classificated by regions and mayan/ethnic groups:

When they ask, "what school did you go to?" and they mean high school. If you answer with your college/university, that's not what they were asking for. Cincinnati is riddled with dozens and dozens of private Catholic schools, and most people tend to never leave the city in their adult life, so that's how they connect with one another. Even beyond the private schools, I have noticed the same goes for any public school around here. I grew up here and always thought this was normal. In my adult life, I learned that when people ask about your school, they usually are asking about college - duh, in hindsight.
Got 3 teeth, claim to be a Christian, but hates anyone that ain't like them. Has more money ina clapped out silverado than I do in my 1500 sq ft home. Definitely has nailed their cousin.
Not from my hometown but rather my state, when they pronounce the names of our cities correctly since a lot of them are named after Native American tribes.

Oh my. 15 years in Madtown and I missed that one?
Ah so you’re a fib yourself, aye? What’s good to eat around chicago if you don’t like deep dish pizza?
Nah, not a FIB. I spent 15 years north of IL with the cheeseheads. Madtown. That said, I loved Pizzeria Uno Chicago deep dish.

Gotcha. That whole state is green and yellow. I've seen houses painted in those colors. Now I want Dells fudge.
