Wisconsin People are Weird

9 out of 10 are good normal people. I call these The Cheddar Head Collation. 1 out of 10 are alien abductions transplanted from California and Oregon. Their perception of the world is a bit off focus and are living in a different reality.

    Dealing with the public for 20 years has lead me to estimate the percentage is much, much higher. And they are everywhere!

    Most time they can walk, or chew gum. But not both at the same time.

    I would put the percentage at 25%.

    I've got a sign around here somewhere and a cap with a Wisconsin slogan written on them:

    WISONSIN, LAND OF COW poop AND BEER FARTS

    Is that a slogan they have on their auto tags????

    If not maybe they should consider.
    AND I've never been to Wisconsin.

    If we have lost any loonys from Oregon, we have not noticed. Perhaps ours are being replaced by all the doofs that migrate here from the East Coast Asylum.

    fiends Thought that was a misspell of FRIENDS until I looked it up online after seeing Jeffery's name.

    Did not realize that the Master CHEF, Jeffery Dahmer and the other killer were from Wisconsin.

    By the way here is another one I heard recently.

    Calling Al Sharpton a Reverend is in same category as calling Jeff Dahmer a Chef.

    Come, live in my world for a while. This morning, cops called on a domestic at the gas station next door. A couple chasing each other around the gas pumps. with ill intent on their minds. Hour later, man accosts the manager at the free phone place across the street. Seems he had an issue with the manager expecting an ex employee to pay off a tablet she stole, and $1400.00 in charges that she rang up. Go figure. Working on a door. Double door situation, have one of them blocked with a ladder while I'm working on it. Other is free and clear. Every single person through those doors, had to squeeze past me, nearly knocking me over, rather than go to the trouble of opening the other door. Pennies? Sure, we love to accept payment in the form of 500 loose pennies. 75 cents on your credit card? sure! No problem! it only costs me 26 cents to run it! four bags on your dollar beer? no problem! Hell, they only cost a nickel each, and I make 20 cents off of that beer. Hell, I'm rolling in it!

    Hell, ya! let me give you a 25 cent cigarette, because you are going to buy a beer that I make 20 cents off of!

    Drive you home? No problem! Just let me shut the store up, so that I can do that for you. After all, you just spent $2.25 on the best vodka that $2.25 can buy! You philanderer, you!

    I know I look sexy. Thank you for noticing. I would likely be no more impressed with your assessment of me, if you were sober enough to not need the door frame for support. Nothing personal. Frankly, I like a woman with no teeth, hairy legs, a cut off sweatshirt and a pot belly. I also love that natural odor that comes from not having bathed in a week. GRRRRRRR...........

    Yessir-you credit card was stolen-I did it. Then,I rang up the substantial charge of $4.00. It's what I live for. Free pints of Kentucky deluxe.

    Please do not pee on the sidewalk. Thank you, Ma'am.

    As much as I would really love to trade out a half gallon of cheap vodka for sex, the commonness of sexually transmitted diseases concerns me to a degree, and you are ugly, and stink. Other than that, we'd be good.

    Hell, this could go on for a week.

    BTW-every single word of this has happened, and a whole lot more.

    You are right. I would put the number at about 25% also.

    seacher5, are you a glazer mechanic?
    I know that situation. When I wasn't busy running the fabrication in the shops I have worked for,
    I would be out doing service. I hated working on retail storefront.
    They could have two or more pair of doors, but they would all have to try to go through the one I would
    be working on. I would have it blocked off with "Caution Tape" and tools and a ladder in the way
    yet they would always climb under the tape to go in the one I was working on.

    I know how you feel.

    Originally coming from Minnesota, I know how those "Cheese Heads" are[:D][:D]
    Should be here is Florida. Talk about alien abductee transplants[:(!]
    We have them from all over the world, not just from California or Oregon.
    Or little BFE county has the largest population of Muslims per capita in the state[:(!]
    One thing good, is we have the largest population of retired military officers per capita
    in the state. Most of them are pro 2nd Amendment.
