    I'm 61 years old and left my hometown of Watertown WI at age 19. I've lived in California since 1985 and I still use a lot of these phrases. I didn't think I had a Midwestern accent until my wife was playing back a voice I didn't recognize. I asked her who that was because the guy sounded like he was from the Midwest. She said "That's you. Don't you recognize your own voice?". Ope! I guess not!

      It can go both ways. My California-native friend decided to buy a cheap foreclosure house and moved to the upper Michigan peninsula, despite never having been there. It didn't take long for his transformation into a Yooper-ite. . . for real, he acquired the accent without even being aware of it dontcha know . . ahaha.

    The "It's a horse a piece" is incredibly local to just east-central Wisconsin. I would hear it multiple times a day when I lived there, but then you drive just 30 minutes away and suddenly no one says it anymore. Travel another 30 minutes and not only does no one say it, but if you say it then people will look confused and have no idea what it means. I've never come across a phrase that remained so restricted in geography.
    Which is a shame really, it's a fun phrase to say!
    EDIT: The phrase means the same thing as "Six of one, half a dozen of another". Basically just a way to say that both options will cost you a horse.

      However, you don't realize that you likely have a combination accent between his and Chicago.
      The further south you go, it ends up a blend with Chicago.
      Same for things like bubbler, which I believe comes from a Milwaukee company who made drinking fountains.
      The Ooop! is nearly everywhere in Wisconsin, but it's so common and natural (and said slightly differently depending on region) that you likely don't realize that you use it.
      Now that it's been pointed out, you'll almost certainly catch yourself or someone you know using it, but you'll notice a difference in sound.

      I say "ope" all the time, it's so consistent that I actively try (and fail) to avoid it. Don't know if that's a regional variation but it's always "ope", not "oop".
      The only things I can identify in myself are saying "melk" sometimes and saying "a horse a piece", which my mind is blown that that's a regional expression, thought it was just a common idiom or whatever till I learned otherwise like a week ago.
