Funny, I'm on the eastern side of the upper Midwest, grew up suburban/rural. The phrasing reminds me of using "learn" in place of "teach", which I'm familiar with the concept of but haven't heard used unironically.

Edit: I've been saying sentences with "borrow me [thing]" out loud and it's possible that I just haven't registered folks using it, rather than having never heard it. It sounds off but not alien.
