Knowing that you are from Wisconsin isn't a case of being Born there it is a state of being.

That's not an insult either.. I'm quite happy being common.

 

Heh that's funny (not enmos he's a bore)

We do the hokey pokey and chicken dance too!

 

Take a lesson from SAM guys.. that HURT.

 

Ya got a Cheese Head to, if not I would be more than happy to send you one.

To really do the chicken dance right, you got to have a Cheese Head on.

 

I lived in Milwaukee for a few months back in 97 --- worst experience in my life. I consider that place the true 3rd level of hell.

 

What's a cheese head?

 

someone who smokes cheese

 

I like the sound of wisconsin - cheese, beer and fishing are 3 of my favourite things.

do they actually make real cheese there though? most american cheese I've tried tastes like plastic

 

Yeah, actually. It's not great, as a rule, but it's often noticeably better than the supermarket run. You can get lucky at small town gas stations, even, with bags of local cheese curds - they should squeak when you bite them.

I ran into a Wisconsin Brie once that wasn't half bad. Maybe it was just aged properly - it had dust on the package.

Something that belongs at a soccer match.

One big problem with Milwaukee is Chicago.

Wisconsin is a very difficult state to peg, for character. They have Russ Feingold, of course, and the community-owned Packers (an arrangement since ruled out), but the core of the state might still be what that book "Wisconsin Death Trip" was all about.
