Ohio

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.

Dammit...

Ohio has the official motto "At least we're not West Virginia or england", other mottoes including "How bout them Browns!", Ohio The uneducated people in southern Ohio generally great each other with a simple "Who Dey?"is a place in the United States that likes to think of itself as being round on both sides and "hi" in the middle. America's dillhole, in other words.

It's called the Midwest because even though it's 10 times closer to New York than it is to California, the people there are so uneducated they believe it's somewhere around Kansas. Besides it's flat as a pancake and Keira Knightley's chest anyway.

[edit] Going to Ohio (God forbid)

On the one hand, its a friendly place if you are north of Interstate 70, which bisects the state. On the other hand, if you aren't White Anglo Saxon and Protestant and find yourself south of the freeway, you can pretty much kiss future good-bye because those people don't cotton to anyone who wouldn't die for the KKK. This area of the state is often referred to as West-West Virginia, North-Northern of the Commonwealth of Kentuckistan, and Southeastern-Southnorthern Indiana. If you should find yourself in Cincinnati then man you are really screwed.

If, through an inability to navigate the many, many orange traffic barrels that have become the state mascot you do get stuck south of Interstate 70, remember this simple phrase - "I'd like a drink of war-tur, please." It's an ancient code to pass as a local, much like how "please" functions as "I do not understand you, please repeat that" in Cincinnati.

In the past, Ohio played a major role in the development of the United States, but since 1973 its been regarded as the type of place that one no longer drives to, but instead is the type of place that one drives through. Many anime fans visit the state thinking it is the Japanese province of Ohayo. It has totally shitty weather that will make you gouge your eyes out, and is only nice when there is no humidity and some clouds out. Which is to say that the only place south of Cananda with worse weather is Oklahoma.

The one saving grace for being in Ohio is that female topless sunbathing is legal and permitted in all Ohio parks.

[edit] Natural Wonders

Among Ohio's many scenic wonders is the Giant Pile of Tires on Fire outside Canton, Ohio. The pile, once four hundred feet high has been burning since 1977. This black cloud - which the Indians named Kent roughly translates to: Fucking shit! Look what white man do to our home!

However, possibly the most fascinating phenomenon takes place surprisingly regularly. Ohioans are a passive, friendly race, similar to cows in nature and intelligence alike, but when a football game of importance occurs within the state's borders, every Ohioan within a 100-mile radius flocks to the site of the game with urgency. Those who are not able to attend are suddenly flooded with a mysterious psychosomatic energy, which is mainly expressed in the form of violent, profane howling at the nearest television, accompanied by an uncharacteristic amount of movement expressed by the Ohioan. Victories and failures for the favored team both traditionally end in the traditional postgame sport of "finding", in which the entire audience of the football game participates.

Ohio is also called hell on earth. But Hell, Ohio is located just twenty miles east of Youngstown. And just when you thought you had been everywhere that you could go.

[edit] Ohio-Michigan War of 1820

The Ohio-Michigan War of 1820 erupted over which state owned a strip of land, approximately one mile wide that stretched from Lake Erie to the Indiana State line.

Ohio insisted that the bleak, unproductive land belonged to Michigan. Michigan on the other hand wanted no part of it. Both States tried to give the land to Ottawa tribe which turned up its nose and opted for the dusty wasteland of what is now Oklahoma.

The first salvo was hurled when Ohio map makers named the land "Sylvania, Michigan" (meaning: Place where television grows wild) and colored it in Pink, the same color as the badger state on the map at hand. Michigan returned fire by moving the city of Monroe Michigan to the mouth of the Maumee River and renamed it Toledo.

Then things got ugly.

By 1911, people from Michigan were snubbed by Ohio's upper crust society, and Ohio became the dumping ground for all of Michigan's poorly built automobiles. Things got so bad that the air was ripe with discontent. To settle the matter, the two states fronted Football teams which would "meet annually to do battle on the field of sportsmanship." While the Champion gets to rid itself of the unwanted land, the loser is crowned a "sucker" and gets stuck with the unwanted land for the next 365 days. Presuming that the following year is a leap year, the extra day of ownership is bestowed upon Florida, which has nicknamed the strip of land "Lake Erie Butthole." The Floridan government was not pleased, and in 2005, they attempted to force all Ohioan citizens to dance constantly. Upon Ohio's refusal, Florida began shooting missiles, with spped at a power over 9,000 of course, at Upper Arlington, Ohio. Specifically, a Penn Station situated in one of Upper Arlington's suburbs. Ohio, after much contemplation and realizatin of the severity of the issue - "shit, that's the one city we get half our money from!" - they decided to keep secret the incident, and bargain Florida into allowing the Florida Gators to bludgeoning Ohio State Buckeyes in the next few championships, including football and basketball. Ohio, being the football obsessors they are, care for crapcakes about the basketball incident. muck Fishigan muck Fishigan muck Fishigan

[edit] Cleveland, as bad as you think

For many years, Cleveland Ohio, also known as "The Mistake By The Lake", was the national joke in the United States. The city was so bad (HOW BAD WAS IT?) that even Jimmy Hoffa's body didn't want to be found there. (Cleveland humor - as bad as it sounds).

The city fathers decided to clean up the city, starting with a giant magic show: Making Water Burn. In 1967 they lit the Cuyahoga River on fire and entered into the Guinness Book of World Records as hosting the world's largest weenie and marshmallow roast. Nice try, but no thank you.

In response, God placed a horrifyingly terrible curse on the city. However, in a move of compassion, he promised never to give Cleveland such a bad turn again. As a sign, he endowed the city with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There was also a Rock and Knoll Hall of Game, but this should have been placed in the redneck city of the state, Sunbury, in Delaware County. The collection can now be seen in the basement of the mayors house. Mt. Vernon decided that it needed something special and celebrated the fact that author of 'Dixie' and 'Turkey in The Straw', Dan Emmet, was born there. This was a bad move, as out-of-county-ers thought the festival celebrating this man was called "The Dammit Festival". Some residents believe it is.

[edit] Economy

Between 1790 and November 27, 1972 at 11:52AM, Ohio was a young man and went to make his millions. However at 11:53AM, the whole shebang went to Hell in a hand basket and since then people have been screaming to get the Hell out of Ohio. In 1999, Ohio was about to enter into a "merger of equals" with Germany when the government in Berlin got cold feet, said that "it isn't you, its me" and "can't we just be friends instead?". This left poor Ohio at the altar, all dressed up and no where to go.

Troy Ohio's other armpit - also known as West Dublin, in reverence to their heoroes in Dublin, Ohio. Much like the rest of Ohio, residents partake in the aforementioned football ritual. At night the locals have wet dreams of beating Piqua's football team. Local statutes require that all government employees be either worthless, conceded or both.
Union City Stupid town in the north west corner of Dork County. It is known for refusing to let Verizon Wireless build a cell phone tower on a useless piece of grass...

This group is known as the Knights of Columbus.
