Talking Wisconsin

[@joshtarnowski3224]

I'm from Wisconsin and the bubbler/water fountain part cracked me up.

[@nejdro1]

We always called them bubblers in Kenosha. They are called bubblers in Portland,Oregon too.

[@ashantimatrix6673]

David Jensen omg Kenosha Wisconsin is where Bella Conforti and Ferryn Lott live. They are two youtubers. You should watch them sometimes

[@darthbane8]

I’m from Bayfield up north and we didn’t call them bubblers. Must be a “southern” Wis thing!!!!

[@MrZane777]

@@darthbane8 it's actually mostly a northern thing as far as I know. No one in Madison calls if that at least or Verona.

[@ezrashe-wolf678]

Shoulda seen the looks my family got when we moved to Texas from Wisconsin. No one knew what we were talking about.😂😂😂

[@Sharpie22ish]

As a Wisconsinite, I had to repeat every word they said and could not stop laughing! They sound so proper, but it sounded so funny to me! OOr-ANge? Its pronounced "OrUnge" up here! Pajamas got me the worst!! lol

[@catra1733]

Lmao yes I’m from Wisconsin too it was like “Aar-ehn-j” and I was like wtf it’s “Ore-aan-j”

[@svetlanathecat-snake6251]

"OrUnge" for me too

[@chitlitlah]

I grew up in Texas and I have to side with the Wisconsinites on this one. The way the first two said 'orange' sounded unusual to me and threw me off as to who's supposed to be saying it the Wisconsin way.

[@tomlea3713]

I've lived in Wisconsin my entire life. It's always fun watching new newscasters try to pronounce the names of towns like Muscoda, Oconomowoc, Shawano and many others. You can always tell whether they're from Wisconsin or not! Hilarious! :) But it's all in fun. We're nice people hey!

[@mr__music5719]

Alright everyone say it with me. A water fountain is something you fucking see in a park and look at. It's a decoration. A drinking fountain I understand, but bubbler is vastly superior.

[@bigsky3072]

You know it's funny. Back in 1981, my older sister used to go out with this guy.. well, his job was fixing TYME machines. One day he went to work and stole all the money from a TYME Machine. This was in Madison. Then he hit another, and another.. the FBI and the media dubbed him "The TYME BANDIT " So every time he robbed a TYME Machine, the nightly news would report: "The TYME BANDIT has struck again!" He ended up stealing $120,000 from 4 TYME Machines. He spent most of it on coke, then after 2 and a half months, he turned himself in. He received 5 years, got out in 2 and a half for good behavior. My sister believes he stashed some some the money somewhere.. he died 2 years later in a car accident..

[@lauryn1747]

The Rite Man yep that why we call it a bubbler

[@atalijimenez]

Lol! I'm Native to Colorado and we call it a water fountain too! NEVER in my life have I heard the term "bubbler" until today! 😱 But it's funny when you put it that way because even typing "water fountain" pops up this emoji lol! ⛲

[@nekkobat6876]

atalijimenez Bubbler is a term that came from the company name that originally made most of the water fountains in the Midwest

[@lexrae4255]

Straight facts right there

[@edwardmiessner6502]

I always called it a drinking fountain but living in Boston I heard the locals say bubbler ("bubblah").

[@disturbanceatthedancingpla1581]

Once I left Wisconsin to visit a relative when we were at a Museum I asked a worker if they had any bublers and she looked at me like I started speaking Russian. She asked what a bubler was and I said the little machine's that water comes out of so you can drink it. I think she realized what I meant cause she told me where the bublers were.

[@samganos5514]

[@applesdabest4035]

[@inspectorconscious2388]

Apples or like t-pain

I am too and I can't stand it when people pronounce it "Wesconsin".There is no E in Wisconsin!!! I also hear people say "Ellenois" instead of Illinois. But I don't care too much about that...

[@iskippedabeat5732]

I do too XD

[@jawaij2109]

My teacher once said (I'm also a Wisconsinite) that we all say Wis-kahn-sin without realizing it. For me at the time it was true. But now I'm silently conscious of it.

Try to have people pronounce Kaukauna, Manitowac, Ashwaubenon, etc. :)

[@rogernagel1041]

Yea, Ashwaubenon, Weyauwega, Sheboygan, Waukesha. Now if you can pronounce these cities correctly your a Wisconsin native. By the way, along with bubbler we also say pop for soda.

There is a small sliver of cities by Lake Michigan that call bubblers a drinking fountain

[@arilenhart8779]

I see “water fountain” and instantly go *”bubbler.”*

[@gerardbrown2439]

Bubbler is specific to Koehler wisconsin, and some other areas; I say water fountain, but other than that, everything is dead on. Especially the orange and Florida; we tend to just drop the a and i

[@ArticleBot]

Well in Milwaukee they say bubbler and thats the biggest city in Wisconsin so your kinda wrong, but whatever

[@corynisawesome]

Um it isn't just in Koehler Wisconsin they say it. They say it everywhere in Wisconsin. I live in the middle of Wisconsin and i only know 2 people who don't call it that. They are from our of state

[@RoupMcgee]

It's a common term in southern Wisconsin, but there's obviously not going to be a clear cut off with regards to the locations in which it is used. Accents are never hardwired to certain areas. Look at Canadian accents compared to the U.S. Someone abroad would, more than likely, not be able to hear the difference between a U.S. and a Canadian accent. They are mostly the same except for a few specific markers.

[@maddyn3797]

When I was little I didn't even know a bubbler was also called a water fountain

[@ryanj2052]

It's common in most of Wisconsin. I think perhaps only the Northwest don't say bubbler.

[@dylanbendel]

I'm from Minnesota and our neighboring state of Wisconsin has a similar accent. But when I heard the ladies say "arange" trying to pronounce orange I literally laughed so hard

The term "Bubbler" is definitely more a southern Wisconsin thing. I believe it is due to the fact that in the late 1800s there was a water fountain produced in southern Wisconsin called a Bubbler. It was common to find "Bubblers" in Milwaukee and the surrounding area, and the name stuck which is crazy I think.

Yes probably. Thanks! :)
