mistake by the lake

Mistake by the lake is what Cleveland Ohio is called because it is right on the lake and it is the worst city in America .It seems like Cleveland was just a big mistake to even have been built. poverty high crime and drugs bullying bad schools bad hospitals the rich run every thing and the poor and not get out to another county .

Hey why is that guy so mean dirty and nasty ? Because he comes from the place called the mistake by the lake know as Cleveland.

Mistake by the lake

Sometimes ignorant people think this can refer to any number of cities located next to a lake; obviously this is incorrect.
