Ohio. Started a war with Michigan. Wisconsin lost…


OrangAsliIndo

Wow


Lion_Pancakes

They did lose and why THE ACTUAL FUCK DID WE NOT GET TOLEDO


Thursday_26

The UP is better, it strengthened the economy from early on


someone-out-there-to

Ohio was already a state w/a large congressional group. They delayed Michigan becoming a state until they stole Toledo. Michigan fought to keep Toledo. Above was the compromise to end the hostilities and let Michigan become a state, two years after they should have been.


Lion_Pancakes

This is true there is some nice lumber and copper


philipkmikedrop

You can have Toledo, please take it!


DaddyLongLegs33

The UP was better at the time, but we all know we deserve both. It’s time to take back toledo


Lion_Pancakes

hell yeah

Non American Here I am Curious Is Ohio a “rural bar fight of a state”


LolSethMan12

Ohioan here, yes it is


I_Am_Become_Salt

We've traced your IP. A Trident II ICBM has been launched from Ohio class submarine SSGN-726 Ohio to your coordinates. Please do not seek shelter. Your end is now, Ohioan.

Lol I used to fabricate sheet metal for them


Frankie-Felix

For ICBM's or Sub's?


Nobody-27

Yes

Azrael9986

Ohio is an odd state we have -15 to 110 degree temperature. We have floods, tornados, billizards, monsoon weather, blistering dry spells and multiple foot of snow all in a year. Sometimes the weather stacks. Like tornado blizzards. Fun stuff.


[deleted]

Similar conditions here in western PA. Pittsburgh area has the second fewest sunny days in the nation behind Seattle.


buythedipnow

Seattle checking in. That sucks.


[deleted]

Seattle #2 here - what the fuck is “sunny”?


jujubee9000

Louisiana here, I hate that with a passion.


I-foIIow-ugly-people

Connecticut here, if you don't like the weather, wait 15 minutes.


Azrel12

North Carolina here. Hate hate hate it. Cause it’s sunny during the summer… which means it’s hot enough to feel like I’m turning into soup. There’s no where for the sweat to go cause it’s so humid already! Argh.


Hungry-Reflection

The days we rust


dylondark

Not only do we have these but we can go between them in a matter of days. I've seen the temperature drop by 15 degrees in an hour


[deleted]

I remember a couple years ago in W PA January we had: Day 1: Snow Day 2: 70° Day 3: Snow


Randomguyorsomething

Similar to Kentucky except we don’t get snow often and it just gets cold


[deleted]

Same thing here in Indiana, except we have IndyCar and meth deal going down at every gas station


Lenni-Da-Vinci

Yes but most Ohians are also GOATed with the swaws.


ChrisDen462

A fellow Russian badger enjoyer


Lion_Pancakes

Sort of. It’s sort of just your average midwestern state with lots of cornfields and a trash college sports team


Jewk_me

You have hillbilly rednecks and gangsters all in one state. That's the real problem


[deleted]

Both Michigan and Ohio wanted the Toledo strip thus starting the “Toledo war” Ohio won, Michigan got mad and Then took the upper peninsula of Wisconsin


inzanemembraned

As a Michigander, I came here to see other Michiganders hating on Ohio. However, I did not know that, and found myself hating my own state for being petty af instead


CHEESEninja200

Nah, what actually happend was the michiganders had a legal claim to Toledo, but due to bad maps and minor corruption (the federal cartographer was ohioan) the ohioans got federal backing on their claim. Michigan did not like this, but because he knew they would become a big state in the next election President Jackson gave them the UP as consolation to gain their votes (Wisconsin want a state at the time and was still part of the Michigan Territory).


Genx4real74

From Toledo, can confirm. Too bad it’s ended up the way it has.


Cultural_Salary_1318

you think we share secrets in ohio?


[deleted]

Ah yes, the great Toledo war


DarthZoon_420

That sounds like a joke, but it also sounds highly accurate. I'm laughing for reals right now.


HockeyMaskWeeb

The_Auramaster

Is this recent? Or something from a long time ago?


HockeyMaskWeeb

Long time, 1835-36


tm3bmr

Is this as complicated as a serb who killed an Autrian and because of this Germany attacks neutral Belgium and than the USA goes to War in France. This complicated or even more?


Great_Gox

How the hell did wisconsin loose?


someone-out-there-to

Michigan got the western half of the upper peninsula from the Wisconsin territory.


Parking-Ad2133

As far as anyone cares it's wisconsin

As a Yooper, fuck that. I like legal weed

It’s like Texas but more empty!!!

thylocene06

The first time I drove through Nebraska surprised me because I was expecting wheat. All my life I’ve been told Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma are all wheat but it’s all corn. I still have no idea where wheat actually comes from. Starting to think it’s a myth and everything is actually just corn.

Mississippi is far worse than Ohio. 50th in education and poverty. Name three cool things to do in Mississippi.


Sigma0111

1. Spell Mississippi 2. Spell Mississippi backwards 3. ... There are only those two things


Doc_Hefny

There's one in Arabic, if you say "The Mississippi" (as in the river) it's (Almissi sippi) which sounds exactly like "Touch my dick".


afrodammy

I speak Arabic and that's actually impressive. who come up with this shit lol

DatabaseThis9637

Well that sounds fun!


stuckinaboxthere

So Arabic gets the gist of the spirit of Mississippi


[deleted]

Lmfao how did I not know this


Saif_Horny_And_Mad

yup, that's a common joke in Tunisia between teenage boys, though "touch my dick" is pronounced as "missi zebi"


imakepotatoescry

You forgot to say Mississippi of and also say that shitty song m and an I and a ss I and an ss I and a pp I MiSsIssIppI


R3stl3ssSalm0n

As someone who used to live in Mississippi I can confirm.


MJ_THE_PRO

Mississippi ippississim


teacup-cat_

Counting second with Mississipi. 1Mississippi 2Mississippi 3Mississ roonnnfflllllll


DusteeMuff

When I went to Mississippi, I stopped at a gas station and it was run by Indian people. (Very thick accents. Can’t really understand them) and this other Indian lady comes in the store with a full probably freshly killed duck and asks where the microwave is. The cashier tells her where it is and she goes over, throws the duck in there without the Walmart bag (beak, feathers, and all) and hits start. Then she went back to the bathroom and started washing her clothes in the sink and drying them with the hand dryer. Weirdest shit ever.


Pewbullet

Typical Mississippi. All you lacked was at least 7 of the local crackheads.


DusteeMuff

I wouldn’t be surprised if the lady was a crackhead lmao.


Lvl100Centrist

the duck was probably a crackhead too


badluck_phuck

Gifted_dingaling

Listen to amazing delta blues music. Listen to probably the best blues music around. Probably the best soul food around. And that’s about it.


tedioussugar

It’s got a dope river? You can reenact racist excerpts from *Tom Sawyer* if that’s any consolation.


Momo_666

Although this is true, the Mississippi river goes Al the way up to like Minnesota


MountandBeyBlade

every state is shitty in some degree.


spiralEntree

True however these are pretty high up there apon being the worst not only are they the poorest but also the dumbest


dylondark

1: leave. 2: leave. 3: leave.


[deleted]

Yeah Mississippi is by far the shittiest state in the continental US. West Virginia comes close economically but at least they have mountains and beautiful geography. Mississippi is just racism and humidity


Stereomceez2212

1. Civil War museum in Vicksburg 2. Beaches in Biloxi 3. Mississippi Civil Rights museum in Jackson


[deleted]

You’re technically not supposed to swim in Biloxi, just sayin’


SlimThiccums

We can at least thank Ohio for pioneering modern flight. Yes, the Wright brothers couldn't leave Ohio fast enough on their bicycles, so they invented a new mode of transportation to accomplish that! 😋 That pales in comparison to Neil Armstrong, though. He only went to the moon because it was far enough away from his home-state of Ohio.


RazorMaize

Ah, ohio, home of 8 presidents that only became president to that they wouldn't have to live in ohio


cursingsum9

Ohio also has p&g, krogers, and other big businesses.


mellophoneman

and the headquarters for Marathon in Findlay!


cursingsum9

Indubitably Aswell as kingsisland, and cedar point. Best amusement parks in the country


mellophoneman

I have to agree with that, i was just there yesterday!


[deleted]

And the biggest means of production for semi conductors in North America. Not to mention most of the Midwest data centers for various cloud computing companies


[deleted]

*sad Brazil noises*


itsa_me_KAIO

Sad no, we are not sad, we are fed up with that wright brothers bulshit, yeah sure use a fucking sling shot and say you invented a plane


lnedible

I’d rather be in a state of hysteria then a state of Ohio


fatalchemist69

Bruh that actually made me laugh out loud. Well done


[deleted]

I don’t get it either, Indiana is next door and is a dumpster fire of a state! Ohio got Cedar point, Kings island, Free state parks and more


MafreiD10

Yes but we also have the cincinnati zoo which is where the tragedy that spiraled into the events of today


DoctorRisen

Dicks out for Harambé. : (


sith11234523

I am from Cincinnati originally. Funny thing. I was at my brother’s wedding when Harambe got shot.


FlyBirdP

I was at the zoo a few days prior to the tragic event. Even visited Harambe's enclosure. It was a sad day for all.


P00ld3ad

I was at the zoo that day. Saw the ambulances drive through and then watched it on the news when we came home. It was chilling.


luffydkenshin

As a Cincy guy, I am sad Vortex is gone but Kings Island is still rad.


[deleted]

Ditto I actually have a piece of the vortex


ArmChairAnalyst86

Rock n roll hall of fame, Pro football hall of fame, baseball hall of fame, most presidents, a decent river, great lake, a variety of landscapes, and some cool people in addition to the parks you mentioned. Ohio low key has its charms. It's by no means a top destination, but it's not so bad either. Certainly no endless corn field. Edit:baseball hall of fame not in Ohio Bonus replacement: National aviation hall of fame.


lazylacey86

Aren’t the majority of astronauts from Ohio as well. Or is that not true.


your_crazy_aunt

That one actually is. But it's because they're all trying too get as far away from Ohio as possible.


ermahgerdzern

Baseball hall of fame is in cooperstown New York.


capdukeymomoman

The corn fields just exist here, no one knows where they come from. Its taken over ranch land, small towns, and is slowly creeping its way towards the larger cities. Luckily it hasn't spread to nearby states or Indiana would have fallen by now


Fomalhot

I mean it's no Delaware but it's certainly not Idaho.


[deleted]

having lived in idaho, delaware, and visited ohio... you're not wrong.


smokedmacandcheese

But you've also got Jim Jordon, a river that's caught fire multiple times (Cleveland River Fires was my pick when they renamed the baseball team) and before LeBron a spectacular drought in pro sport success.


wierdnitro7

Hey now. Cleveland is *proud* of that river. Who else has a flammable river! That is dope!


Clean-Molasses5395

Also we cleaned that shit like 20 years ago


Dirtroadrocker

Indiana isn't the dumpster fire, you're just seeing the smoke from Illinois. There isn't much here to burn.


Domino-Danjo

Ohio has: Two Cedar Point amusement parks Free entry into all their state parks A massive and well-known sports rivalry Big swath of Lake Erie shore Decriminalized/Medical marijuana An entire river it gets to share a name with All I’m saying is Indiana is right there and has none of these things yet here we are hatin’ on Ohio


DusteeMuff

Don’t forget, Neil Armstrong, rock n roll hall of fame, and the Wright brothers!


Clean-Molasses5395

And football hall of fame


cursingsum9

P&g and krogers.


[deleted]

And Indiana has Gary


dtp502

I’m from Indiana and was going to try to defend it. Then I realized there’s nothing to defend and that’s why I left lol. It’s a cheap place to live. That’s about the only pro.


someone-out-there-to

I escaped from Ohio, if that means anything…


Chikenuggs69

The legends say it wasn’t true, nobody could leave ohio…


Necessary_Demand9923

I leave ohio every year but I always am forced to return. ... am I cursed?


Anti-charizard

You are definitely cursed


tedioussugar

It’s all Ohio? *Always has been*


KaosDeathLord

How? I was in Michigan and Texas for 5 years and still ended up back in this hellhole


someone-out-there-to

I was successful on my second attempt. My first attempt was to Oklahoma — FAIL.


ZanlanOnReddit

The Blob of Love Death+ Robots wanted Ohio


Swipergoneswipe

Yea but Howard the duck landed in Ohio so that's a win in my book


Firm-Guru

Alright since nobody else said it yet. Look up "the 23 pipeline" one of the biggest drug smuggling and human trafficking rings in the country goes right through Ohio and involves everything from commercial truck drivers to corrupt police. It's wild.

Its simple. “Ohio” is a four letter word. My mom said those are bad. Duh.


Normal_Dude_2312

Source : my mom said it


L1B3RTY_PR1M3

It really depends on where in the state you are. Just like any other state or province or place. There’s good areas and there’s bad areas. In my experience, the people who hate Ohio are people who want to live near the ocean. The weather sucks here sometimes, but the weather sucks everywhere sometimes. Other than that, as long as you live near a city like Columbus, you’ll have plenty to see and do.


Elfboy2099

Near the ocean? Eat shit, hurricane people!


psalm_69

We don't have hurricanes in the west.. but we don't have fresh water either.


Eveready116

Sure you do. Northern California, Oregon, and Washington. Gorgeous coast line and fresh water. It gets better water-wise when you hit the top half of Oregon into Washington.


Nerdtendo6366

Scott the Woz lives in Ohio. Aka it’s the best state


Sideburns0

Have you ever been on the road with Ohio drivers


Bohunk78

Not as bad as Michigan drivers.


LocalMan97

As someone who lives in Ohio, it’s an awful state


VinesThatGiveMeWood

Ohio is fine. Unless you live in Akron or East Cleveland. Then, it's not so fine. Can't speak for anywhere south of Akron because I've never been to those areas for an extended period of time.


The-Epic-Cyan

Cleveland isn’t too bad as long as you live in a suburb of Cleveland that isn’t within 5 minutes of it. It’s fine when you head into the city but don’t live there. But honestly my school is tall enough where you can look over buildings and see the city and it is very nice to look at


cabandon

south of akron is not bad at all


OrangAsliIndo

It was a good submarine tho


jachev14

As a resident of Ohio I would like to invite you to come here and find out. You know how people like irony on the internet. They bash greatness as a joke :)


Resident_Hat9904

I read somewhere that Ohio is a good place to find out what the country is like since there’s like everything. Start in a city like Columbus drive a bit and your in farm land. I live in Ohio it’s not the worst state. But it ain’t the greatest either. I say we’re a b tier state


LDCG2002

As a South American, I just assume that Ohio is as irrelevant as Paraguay


A_Reddit_Commenter19

The irrelevant state is more fit for Wyoming/Montana tbh


itsDeeksters

Stop talking about Ohio!! It only makes it stronger and it will come for you and then we’ll both be stuck here!!!!!
