Went to a party last night where we spent a decent amount of time talking about how Ohio is weird, and Indiana, too

I've lived in Baltimore for 12 years but from Ohio. I think the thing in Ohio is that you have to know where to look. There are some fantastic things, and Columbus, Cleveland and Cincinnati, have some awesome parts to them. The politics, though, SUCK.

This is really similar to FL. By land mass it is largely wasteland with insane politics. However, there are some islands of sanity in that wasteland as well as a few bastions of hope.

I think a large part of it is that the elderly are often retired with too much time on their hands so they look for drama. I’ve seen some shit go down at dog parks among old people and the level of gossip makes middle school seem tame. And the ones still working are bitter they didn’t make their millions that was promised to them.

Agree on all of this. I moved here from Michigan most recently and I got enough Ohio hate there, let me live Baltimore sub!

So true. Is that why there are so many Ohio to Baltimore transplants?

I think it’s a lot of Midwest transplants, Ohio inclusive. It’s also the seventh most populous state so the statistics favor a lot of Ohio transplants

Sure, we'd all love to flee to the Cleve and clubhop down at the flats.
