Asker's rating. 1  if someone is dense, it means they are thick-headed and do not understand simple concepts where other average persons would. 2  The correct grammar is...You're so dense.. 3  dense means stupid or slow when you use it in that term. 4  Literally: You;re a fatass. 5  It means thick-headed.
I think a good way to think about this is through a rural/urban lens (as Quora User hints at) or at the very least as a difference in population density. People in the Midwest are usually in less dense environments (unless one is in Chicago). Even bigger cities in the Midwest like, say, Milwaukee tend to be less dense than northeastern cities (one can see the Wikipedia entry on this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lis...)
