>You may be "in michigan" but are you "from michigan".

I have literally 0 reason to answer this, it has absolutely nothing to do with the conversation, but to placate whatever weird obsession you have, yes. I was born in Michigan.

>Why would you say north america unless you have ties to canada.

Why do you care? Is North America offensive now or something?

I said "North America" because, for the purposes of this specific conversation, it doesn't matter at all. Except to you, apparently. For some unknown reason.

I try not to be super US-centric on international forums. First time someone's ever started questioning me about it, though.
