❄️ 9 Funny (But True!) Things Wisconsinites Say During Winter

Winter in Wisconsin is basically a personality test… and most of us fail it with sarcasm, cold fingers, and a level of denial unmatched by any other state. Here are 9 painfully accurate things Wisconsinites say the second temps drop and snow starts flying:

 

1. “Is that pipe frozen or am I just being dramatic?”

(It’s frozen. It’s always frozen.)

2. “I swear I just shoveled this.”

You did. And you’ll do it again in an hour.

3. “Where’s the roof rake? No, the good one.”

Every Wisconsin home has a bad one and a good one.

4. “If that snowplow dumps one more mountain at the end of my driveway…”

He’s doing it on purpose. We all know it.

5. “Don’t touch the thermostat. I mean it.”

A sacred winter rule.

6. “Hey look, I can write my name in the snow!”

Grown adults become 8 years old again.

7. “Every parent’s mantra: YES, you need to wear a coat outside.”

Said every morning, every day, endlessly.

8. “If the wind would quit, it’d be nice out.”

Meanwhile it’s 13°, your face hurts, and your soul left your body.

9. “Should I salt the driveway or just accept my fate?”

 

Depends on the mood and how many times you’ve already slipped today.
