    I hate so say it, but you should grab Michigan and Wisconsin. Much like a girl I used to know: We can fix her, and she has huge lakes that I find appealing. Or something like that.

        Yeah, it sucks. But Look at that map. Those lakes are fairly important. Well either that or do a Robert Evans plan and just nuke them.

        No, I’m living there now, and the city I’m in feels like a wannabe California (aka liberal, techy, high housing costs, etc)

            Wisconsin has three major cities with VERY different personalities. One of them is very Portland/silicon valley (in its own Midwest-y way), one is borderline detroit-y, the other is an overgrown suburbia.

            Yes, a city in Wisconsin.

        What the fuck did you just say?! Are you suggesting that we are inbred? Alabama! Fuck you!

        Wississippi

        Only state to have (I think) four presidential elections decided by less than 1%.

        The states motto is “Forward” and it used to be one of the most progressive states, but it was also the testing ground for the Koch bros media network, that plus the gerrymandering from 2010 really set us back.
