Michigander born and bred. I’m 64, and I, like others here will be a Michigander till the day I die. Why anyone felt the need to change is beyond logic. Michiganien, ugh, put it in the trash. Michiganite, I’m not going to even comment. It’s not worthy.

Michigander is the correct term, in my mind.
25. Jan, 2012 at 8:01 pm
I live in Michigan right about here (while holding up mittened hand and pointing) is my usual response.
25. Jan, 2012 at 6:24 pm
I’ve been a Michigan resident for only about 6 months (used to be a Buckeye). I thought Michigander was the “official” designation. Actually, I was going for Yooper.

I’m from Michigan, but moved to Colorado in 1981. I LOVE your candles. I got my first one at the Ben Franklin store in East Tawas, while visiting my mom, who lives there. Since then, I have ordered candles from your website.

I have always heard that we were Michiganders. Seeing we have all these Canadian geese around that is a good reason too.
25. Jan, 2012 at 2:48 pm
