I’m 16 and I live in the Midwest, I am physically unable to pass someone walking, biking or driving without doin the little hand wave thing

This isn’t Comedy, it’s a documentary

[KatieRaeRae]

It was a rude awakening when I found out that the rest of the country isn't this way lol.

The gardening bits were embarrassingly accurate. Only thing missing was randomly leaving vegetables on each other's porches because you 'grew too much'.

[lainfaltin]

Looking up at the sky and saying “Oh, it’s about to rain good, ” is the most Midwest thing in the world

[Bacca-rat]

No dislikes. Must be a lot of Midwesterners on here.

Some say he’s still at the four-way, letting other people go first

I also love how in the Midwest honking in traffic isn’t something people do casually. Usually when people honk it’s for good reason. It’s uncommon enough that you actually care when people honk at you in traffic and everyone will look to see if it’s something they did.

The Midwest is a combination of Southern hospitality and Canadian politeness.

"i know i cant help the weather, but it doesnt mean im not sorry about it."

I immigrated from the UK 25 years ago to a small town in Michigan. I have never met such kind, genuine people in my life. You cannot walk a block without at least three conversations about the weather, how handsome your Labrador is or how the kids are doing. We even say hello and start conversations with people in elevators.

As a southerner, I really enjoy these videos. I feel like midwesterners are our
nervous, Catholic cousins.

Forgot "It wouldn't be that cold out if it wasn't for this wind."

[keaton]

“It’s what gets me out of purgatory” funniest shit ever

[Sphere]

Has anyone else started to hold the door open for someone but it's below zero so you close it 80% to not let the cold in, and then open it again once they get close enough.

Apologizing is instinct. I say “sorry” when I bump into inanimate objects.

[loripytlik]

I feel like people that aren’t from the Midwest think this is over exaggeration

[miranda]

I cannot physically stop myself from saying "ope" EVERY time I bump into someone, drop something, or make any kind of small mistake.

[PeterATomich]

We also say "have a good one" when parting ways. Sometimes we say "it's about that time" to initiate the departing.

I feel misrepresented. He wasn’t even wearing socks with his sandals.
