Very small mid-Atlantic vtuber checking in to not only agree but also to say that we exist but mostly indie and super small, so you just never see us 😊😂
Oh god, as a new englander living in CA for the past 5 years, I feel so seen. It’s like everyone is always trying to snipe my eyes to make contact all the time
I just realized she's a New Englander because she's talking about her accent coming out, when to me she sounds perfectly normal. Then I make the connection "oh yeah, she's from where I'm from" lol
I feel this so much especially as someone who worked as a barista for a year (in the NE), efficiency is always top of my list when doing anything around the cafe and my favorite customers were always the kind that knew their orders and didn't make much of a fuss or the regulars whose orders i already knew
I know I'm late af, but this reminds me of where I'm from (Chicago) and the saying of "We're not very polite, but we are very kind." IRL example: I saw a guy's car break down in the middle of a small intersection. Guy looked like he was about to cry after having a "wtf, come on!" tantrum in the driver's seat. A couple of cars were, basically, stuck behind him. One of the stuck cars' driver hops out and I can hear him yell "Hey, yo, wtf?! Hey, you good?". The broken-down driver tried to say something and the stuck driver interrupts him and goes "Nah, don't worry about it. Hurry up and push the f-er in neutral!", walks up to the car, starts to push it out of the intersection. A couple other guys from another car hop out and I hear em yell "Hey, what's goin on?!" The first stuck driver: "I dunno, f-er's car died." Other guys to the broken-down driver: "Hey man, you can't just leave your s**t-box in the intersection like that!" and proceed to ALSO help. They all push this dude's car out of the intersection and into a parking space on the side of the street, while they all joke and rip on the guy while laughing like idiots. The 2 guys make sure everything's good before they hop back into their car. The first stuck driver says the broken-down driver "You good? You sure? Okay, I gotta get the f to work before I'm late." Hops into his car and the line of cars drive through like nothing happened. lol. They'll help you without being asked, not ask for anything in return, make fun of you the whole time, and leave only when you're good.
I moved to Florida after growing up and living in New Jersey until my mid thirties. I was shocked going out to eat because the waitresses would all say honey or sweetheart to everyone. never heard that in N.J.😂
I've been out of MA for like 18 years now. I still have an accent although it's apparently contentious (Boston says it's a NY accent; NY says it's a Boston accent. That's only if you want to get deep into the details of the NE. I have also found, when I was in FL for a bit, if you get three native New Englanders together and they have a normal conversation. Nobody from FL can understand what any of the three are saying once the latent NE accent appears. Too fast as well. It really blew my mind when 10 Floridians trying to listen couldn't make out a damn thing we were saying.
I've worked in logistics business and there are _a lot_ of Mid-Western to Southern brokers. They all do the sir thing. I grew up in SoCal then in Toronto, so it is not in my vernacular. I am self-taught in the business so I also felt the "are they secretly done with me?" for a long time. Recently I finally change my thought process and just think it is their way of showing respect. So I do it back to them from time to time too. Can't be too polite after all lol.
This is so true, I hate it so much when old people are working drive throughs holding up the line holding you receipt in hand so they can say "Thank you for coming to taco bell today, I sincerely hope you enjoy your nachos bell grande meal with baja blast zero and taco supreme without cheese, sour cream, or tomatoes. Todays total is nine dollars and ninety nine cents, you can pull up to the second window now to collect your food" like they didn't even have to say thanks for choosing them I just wanna pull up the car ahead of me left 5 minutes ago. North easterner problems
Thanks for sharing the customs of the northeast. I had family and friends say that people from the northeast are rude. But it is the manner of misunderstanding.
While I am from the Midwest, I always connected saying "sir" and "maam" to maturity. Like the older crowd mostly did it. I'm almost 30, and I just say it to be polite.
I know what she means. I was born in New Jersey, and lived there until I was 37. then I moved to Florida. I was shocked hearing waitresses call me honey and sweetheart all the time! 😂
I've found one of the only things that makes me wanna go to the north east. I'm mostly scared of NYC, because I cannot stand crowds, but I gotta admit this direct language sounds appealing. Not that being where I am is gonna stop me from acting how I do, 'cause I can't help it. The eye contact thing isn't even something I was aware of, because I'm too autistic to notice how much eye contact everyone else wants. I don't think I make eye contact either, because what the hell's the point of staring at someone's eyes? When I was a kid I never got why it was supposed to indicate I'm listening to them, my ears are on the side of my head, not the front.
New England kind of goes from Maine down to Maryland, but residents usually refer to the “Northeast” as ME, VT, NH, MA, CT, RI (or sometimes as just ME, VT, NH)
@@Althestanenew england does not go down to maryland. It consists of 6 states, maine, vermont, new hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and rhode island
Where in the northeast is Geega from? I'm a born and raised New Yorker (east Bronx) and people have ALWAYS used sir and ma'am. Yeah, depending on the tone when someone says it it can come off as patronizing and/or insulting but it SUPER OBVIOUS when that's the case. I'm slightly older (38) so maybe it's just a generational thing but it still comes off as weird that someone from the region would consider those words as automatically insulting.
I say guys for everyone and online some of the communities I was in insisted I use yall to be more inclusive and or kind. It made me wanna use yall even less lol
No I say y’all all the time. Sorry it’s just attached to my vocabulary. It’s easier to say and simpler then “you all”. And recently I’ve heard “yes ma’am, yes sir” was not used up north and they think it’s rude , sarcastic or unprofessional- WHICH IS CRAZY AND GAVE ME AN EXTERNAL CRISIS! Like growing up over here in the south I grew up saying “yes ma’am, yes sir” it’s respectful. So WHAT ELSE AM I SUPPOSE TO SAY?! It literally shattered my world
"sir" and "ma'am" are starting to lose its politeness nature and considered snarky and/or rude since folks mistake it as a jab regarding one's age and I'm in the southeast...
It’s rare we see a VTuber from the New England/Mid-Atlantic region of the US, despite how densely populated those regions are.
We need more representation
Yeah i can only think of kirsche tbh
@@Bam_bone Late to the conversation but peep Zumi Dokumi, thick ass boston accent. Love it
isn't buff from there?

dude as someone who moved from NJ to FL, the ma'am thing is so real, the first time someone ma'am'd me I was like, "what did I do???"
yo the exchange of up nods is all the small talk i need for any of these interactions

Her accent reminds me of Bill Burr. I almost expect to hear her say "fuck" and "shit" every other word lol

This kind of misunderstanding is going to cause a second civil war. We'll call it the War of Northern Microaggression
The war was just about the State's safe spaces

As someone who find it actual painful to maintain eye contact, suddenly moving to the Northeast doesn't sound to bad.
I've been out of MA for like 18 years now. I still have an accent although it's apparently contentious (Boston says it's a NY accent; NY says it's a Boston accent.

Northeast: youse
Midwest: yinz
South: y'all
Philadelphia: y'all motherfuckers
The hell is a "yinz"? -Minnesotan here
@@Black_Knight767a terrible Pittsburgh accent
Why y'all mother fuckers calling out Philly 😂
From Chicago here: what is yinz. I sometimes feel it's "EX'Cuse me" too much.
Its actually "Youse motherfuckers" - Philadelphian here.
Man, this is so true, lol. Time is valuable and make things too the point.

Love the up nod!
As a southerner I grew up with y’all. “Yous” gave me a good laugh the first time or two but I will always poke fun at “yinz”.
As someone who was born in the Northeast and lived most of my life in the south, the eye contact and penchant for small talk *still* weirds me out lol
the "all youse" is weirdly also a thing in the north east of the UK. That's a weird accent coincidence right there
I've been playing a ton of Cyberpunk 2077 and I thought she voiced the radio host of Growl FM until I found out that was actually Sasha Grey.
New England you don’t say sir/ma’am, you call em “boss”
This is so true, I hate it so much when old people are working drive throughs holding up the line holding you receipt in hand so they can say "Thank you for coming to taco bell today, I sincerely hope you enjoy your nachos bell grande meal with baja blast zero and taco supreme without cheese, sour cream, or tomatoes.

Yall from my experience is/was predominantly south eastern U.S.
Geega is either the most cultured VTuber around or the most Italian to know the Opera and character of Pagliacci
i hung around south philly blue collar folks throughout high school and picked up youse from them, now i can't stop
I live in the North East (Northwestern PA, close to Erie) , and she sounds more like a New Yorker to me.
While I am from the Midwest, I always connected saying "sir" and "maam" to maturity. Like the older crowd mostly did it. I'm almost 30, and I just say it to be polite.
As someone who moved from Jersey to TX i totally relate.
I, a German, find it fascinating how similar the quirks are to what we do over here
I know what she means. I was born in New Jersey, and lived there until I was 37. then I moved to Florida. I was shocked hearing waitresses call me honey and sweetheart all the time! 😂
Very much a city thing

I’m more of a “waddaya guys doin” enjoyer
A guy I know just says "Whazzaaaa" and it's great
As a Moose from New England I appreciate Geega representing us. NOW EVERYONE STOP WASTING MY TIME WITH COMMENTS IM WICKED BUSY KED
I use both Yall and you guys. If im including myself as the group I use Yall if im not in the group i use you guys.
Ah, I need to move to the northeast
Come join us. Come to the dark side.
The communication style sounds very German... Especially when you compare it to Berlin
How far does North East stretch you think. Like Maine, but would that be New England, 🤔 or like New York.
