So some folks wanted a new silly struggle session that can demonstrate for all new arrivals and visitors the sort of silly shit we debate. So I ask you Hexbears: What is the "midwest"? (hexbear.net)

interesting, that makes sense in a way but also implies anything east of California/Oregon/Washington is midwest till you get over to the original colonies.

Except when you go souther or norther of the west, tho, because we have the southwest (Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma), and the northwest (a couple Dakotas, Idaho - which sounds like it should be Midwest, Montana, others?).

idk oaklahoma is stretching it a bit don't you think? At least in terms of "west".

I mean it's west of the Mississippi.

So is it the “plains” or something?
