Living in Wisconsin long enough means eventually speaking a language that makes no sense to anyone else. 😂
"Bubbler." "Ope." "Come with." "Stop-and-go lights." "Going up north." And around here, "it's only 20 minutes from Sussex" — which it never is.
There are phrases you hear and immediately know exactly what someone means without another word.
And then there are the ones that make newcomers stop mid-conversation and ask, "Wait, what does that mean?"
That's half the fun of living here.
