You are mistaken on Minnesota #3. It's not casserole, it's "hot dish".

Not bad...the Minnesota bit rings true.

However my parents retreated to Mesa Arizona every year after they retired. A massive RV parked in a RV park. That made them comfortable and happy...which in turn made me very happy. Anybody dissing snowbirds can kiss my fugkin ass bitches.

Yep, Michigan isn’t much different. Casseroles aren’t as popular as they used to be but I grew up on casseroles, ketchup, salt, pepper, and garlic, and being told to pick a Halloween costume that would fit over a winter coat!

I don't think I've ever seen a store where you could buy bait that didn't also have movies or a Redbox, they pretty much go together.

Not all that long ago there was a liquor store on the edge of town,.."Belcher's Liquor".

The counter was a glass case where they displayed a very decent selection of handguns for sale. Of course, you could also buy cigarettes there.

It was "Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms" one stop shopping.

Had a spare until I adopted a tiger cub. He’s all grown up now and doesn’t like to share his bed. My Ex made him burp. Twice.

Got a detached garage and could put a mattress in the p’up bed if you like. Kinda noisy though. Metal roof and acorns are falling on it by the bucket.

The rest is classified.

If all the native Oregonians gathered in one place for dinner they could almost fill a small mom and pop restaurant, if there was one left.

You can always tell a native Oregonian when you're driving thru Idaho, they're the one's smiling.

How many native Oregonians does it take to change a lightbulb? Who's got weed, man?

Two Oregonians were sitting in a Starbuck when a muslim walks in. Hey stupid, you're in Seattle, not Oregon.
