#Wisconsinite language decoded
Today we learn: "ope, just gonna squeeze right past ya there."
Used most often in grocery stores, especially the cheese aisle. It is commonly said when you need to get to that 6 pack of New Glarus or block of colby cheese, when someone is in the way. In common America vernacular it is closely related to "move bitch, get out the way"

Hi all. I joined Mastodon in November of 2022, during the first major exodus from the Bird Site. I never really introduced myself, though, so here is my #Introduction:
I am a technical writer by vocation and a photographer by avocation. I am a reformed Catholic (aka "an atheist"). I used to be a right-leaning independent, but the right has moved so far to the right that I guess I'm a leftist, now.
Oh: And I live in the Midwestern United States. And while this old man really doesn't know his way around the fediverse, I'm doing the best that I can.
That covers the basics, I think. Glad to see the renewed interest in Mastodon, and I'm looking forward to interacting with y'all!

I've been "unthawed" (I know it's wrong, but I'm an upper Midwesterner and it's deeply engrained) for well over 24 hours now and my pinky fingers are still completely numb 😬
