Never use the word. Paying taxes in both locales teaches one a bit better.
How does that? Well, there are just as many idiots per capita in the rural and northern areas of Minnesota as in the cites first off. Secondly, many years ago we had a governor named Wendell Anderson who got thru a tax initiative that takes a percentage of tax revenue from the people in and around the cities and the lower 2/3 of the state give or take, and sends that money to the north. That is a big reason why northern Minnesota has the schools, roads, infrastructure etc that they do. They called it the "Minnesota Miracle" Being unappreciative and some might say chewing on the hand that feeds you is a sad way to go thru life here. Osky

No wonder there is such a perceived feeling of entitlement in those southern boys when they come up north to rape LOW. They probably figure they paid for it, they own it!

lol, well, it did occur to me that the resort owners are all transplants, and the workers are dreamers that fished here in their youth, and the guides are usually a fella from Iowa with a GPS and a lake chip, and don't own a boat, lol. These folks are just extra people from elsewhere.
I'm a 5th generation local.
It's all about me.

I was sort of hoping trapstickman would demonstrate how deer turn into moose..... It's a rather complicated process where first a deer has to be frightened by a spear then the adrenaline starts the process which is completed after the deer/moose is chased and beaten with a stick until the transformation is complete. That's why the moose population is on the decline in MN....takes just too much work to make one. Now, aren't you glad you asked?
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

I was expecting more of Clovis point on that spear, in keeping with the evolutionary theme we had goin' there.

As you shouldn't,( not to harp),...were all stuck in a game of checkers!,...I lean to my own acknowledgements! That being said taxation should be applied and therefore quantified on a state level,(within parameters)!
Now, back to the OP,...common vernacular,...not in the sense of disrepute, but a generalization is a common choir. Most that I am associated with would agree that Twin Cities vocabulary poses a unique observation one of which we must at one time address. Common across much of America,..........fur is good!

I think a deer turns into a moose when you go to a restaurant and order a moose steak and it was really a buck dear sold the restaurant as moose.

Back when Mn only had few area codes, calling someone a 612er wasnt about their mental abilities or lack there of it was about the difference in lifestyle they represented vs ours.
I'm with you Osky, I wish they would keep their money and the ideals that come out of the metro area.
