This coming from a kid that thought cream puffs and fish frys don't exist outside of Wisconsin. Indiana is as southern as Wisconsin is west coast.
Just like you're the guy who thinks people in Indiana don't have Southern accents. BTW, I never said that fish fries or cream puffs were 100% unique to Wisconsin, just a widely recognized part of Wisconsin's culture. It's sorta like Blue Moon ice cream, I'm sure it's available in other states, but usually only people from Michigan and Wisconsin even know what it is.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_fry
"Fish fries are very common in the Midwestern and Northeastern regions of the United States. This is especially true for predominantly Roman Catholic communities on Fridays during Lent, when regulations calling for abstaining from most meat products are in effect. In Wisconsin, a fish fry is offered at almost all non-chain restaurants, taverns that serve food and some chain restaurants on Friday nights throughout the entire year."
No, it still sounds like a Southern thing to me. I've never heard of toothless meth addicts in western Pennsylvania, Upstate New York, or Vermont, have you?
No, but they're in the Midwest. No need to bring Northern regions in the equation when we're talking about the South and Midwest. Refer to that last map that was posted.

True, Indiana and Missouri are the 2 worst states for meth, followed by Tennessee, Kentucky, and California. That still doesn't change the fact that both Missouri and Indiana aren't anything like the rest of the Great Plains states or Great Lakes states that make up the rest of the Midwest region.

...is also part of the "North", in about a hundred different ways.

Guess the 329 in Michigan and 324 in Illinois which surround the state you say is nothing like the other Great Lakes states don't count?
No they aren't. Upper Michigan and Wisconsin are just as close to Hudson's Bay, up in Canada, as Tennessee and Arkansas are to the Gulf of Mexico, which isn't very close at all.
I wasn't talking about Upper Michigan and Wisconsin. I was talking about Chicago.

No way! I figured somebody, someplace would keep track of this kind of stuff; but didn't figure a person could find it with all the other crap on the web. Cool find.
