Indians were good with Sabathia in 2007 when they choked bigtime in the ALCS.

Also Ohio isn't as lovely as Indiana but it's bigger so it's worse. Its the state that lost a war with Michigan and had Toledo foisted upon it.

I live at least 60 miles away from any major city here, and it sucks. Our entire county has less than 30k people and doesn't have a city anymore. Our county seat has been downgraded to a village after the last census.

Still trying to claw my way out of here!

As a native, I say with authority that Ohio is a festering pustule.

As a misanthrope, I say with authority that so is everywhere else.

I live in Minnesota now, which is okay. It's probably not as "cool" though because this place doesn't exactly excel at that. Def less lovely tho.

why would that be the restaurant you settle on. like out of everything out there, this makes the final cut. white castle would have been a better choice at this point

Ohio is a swing state because the countryside is home to wealthy suburbanites and the occasional millionaire (the kind of people who raise horses as a hobby and build five luxury homes for one open-house exhibit) while the cities are sprawled ex-industrial centers that haven't employed anyone since 1980 and didn't recover from the crack boom so much as they grew out of it

The cities are just open-air cages for the poors to make sure they don't get out and ruin the property value of other (whiter) school districts

Don't worry, they made a replacement : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lux_Mundi_%28statue%29

The fundraiser they had for the new statue got about $3 million IIRC, which could have been donated to cure childrens' leukemia, but no, church gotta look good from the freeway

Bitterly Clinging to my AK47 and Das Kapital

Ohio is where I store my poops.

It's pretty nice. Plenty of oxygen, lots of opportunities for hand to hand combat, and there's been a bumper crop of poisonous squids the last two years. My psoriasis only covers like 70 percent of my body and groin which I attribute to the state government's recent excellent handling of the budget.

I grew up in akron. I never felt connected to anyone there. I always felt like there was more to life. Then I left.


I think I went back once in 2007 right before the housing crash. My friend was proud she bought a home in Cleveland at the time and as we went to see this place I realized how dead it was in that city. Everything was hosed but the people are desensitized to it. I told her "Sell this loving house and get out of here. This place is hosed." She actually listened to me. Sold her house fast, took a 10k loss and moved to San Fransisco. About 4 months later the entire economy exploded - She would of lost 80k if she waited. She now is married and living a pretty good life in the center of SF.

I guess the moral of this story is get the gently caress out while you can. I live in LA and I meet so many people who got the gently caress out. Go to the coasts.

Pretty neat.

Did you guys hear that the banks in Ann Arbor didn't close yesterday bc they said Columbus was in Ohio. Pretty rude, imo.
