WISCONSIN DICTIONARY aka Friday Funny

You forgot "The Cheddar Curtain", the Wisconsin/Illinois border. As in "I hate going south of the Cheddar curtain, but my buddy is getting married in Chicago this weekend"

BTW, Yooper is a term specifically reserved the upper peninsula of Michigan.

Someone else mentioned it, but most of this list does not apply the Milwaukee area.

Cora, you forgot my favorite: "Tyme machine"

When I worked for [Chicago-area theme park that I am contractually obligated not to name], I dealt with a lot Cheeseheads. I was really confused the first time one came up to me and said, "Excuse me, where can I find a time machine?" I thought I had a crazy person on my hands.

haha I always forget about that... Though I haven't actually seen a Tyme machine in awhile... mostly all generic bank ATMs these days. The name still sticks for a lot of people though
