Demichiganization

The process where the children of Northern transplants to the South, especially from Michigan, adapt to Southern culture and southern drawl, often to the disgust of their parents.

I regret leaving Ann Arbor for Birmingham, my son has an annoying drawl, eats gross food, wears comfort colors and khaki shorts, and wants to go to Bama instead of Umich; I am worried that demichiganization will affect my younger children as well.

Comfort Colors

What the cool Southerners wear as tee shirts and sweaters.

If you ain't got no Comfort Colors in your wardrobe, then you are most certainly a Yankee.

Saskatchewanization

A large influx of beavers in another province that is not Saskatchewan.

The Saskatchewanization of Quebec has become so dire in recent years that indigenous aquaculture has become displaced.

Shiplap

Decorative boards commonly found on walls, as seen in the HGTV show Fixer Upper.

I put shiplap in my new renovation.

Carmichaeling

Moving to New York City from Alabama and changing your last name to match your rich gay friend that owns a plantation and hide your poor southern roots, like how Melanie "Carmichael" did in Sweet Home Alabama.

He is carmichaeling to hide that he grew up in a double wide.

Flornadians

Canadians that live in Florida

There are plenty of Flornadians to spare in Orlando.

Yankee Florida

The area of Florida south of Gainesville and not Key West or the Everglades.

Them yankees took over most of Florida and made it Yankee Florida with their unsweet tea and they want to open up one of them Tim Hortons.
