the most Southern of Northern States. A lot of people in the Deep South seem to hate us; but many upper Northerners make fun of us as if we are a joke. Well, the latter is quite uninformed. They apparently do not know that we were on their side during the Civil War, as well as about 45% or more of the state population being Unionist, and hating (me) or disagreeing with the idea of the Southern Confederacy today. In addition the "official" Northerners do not realize that Pennsylvanians travelled down the Ohio River to settle much of northern and western Kentucky. Even a few New Yorkers made their new homes in the Commonwealth.
People think that we are the South because they don't realize that there is Southern influence (influence being the keyword) here, which is moderated by the sister states of Indiana and Ohio to the North. Missouri and Illinois are both full of Southern influence and are on a lower line of latitude than us, but they call it the Midwest. Why wouldn't that make us the same.

The only state to be a physical manifestation of a mid-life crisis. It's southern and in the Bible belt and they say "warsh" instead of wash, but the younger are more northern. Also horse racing yeehaw. Half of the land is just a highway in the middle of nowhere with a tree-riddled cliff on the right and a hill on the left. There's no natural flat ground; everything is on an incline. The capital is a small town, compared to Lexington or Louisville it is nothing.
What even is Kentucky

A state filled with mindlessly-religious, hypocritical people. If you don't believe in their God watch out.

A half-Midwestern/half-Southern state in the Ohio River Valley. This is a pretty good state that has a rich history and was a far more Unionist, not Confederate, state during the Civil War. Yet many people, but definetely not all, try to act and appear like they are pro-Southerners, mant of those people being rednecks. This is why a great majority of people see the whole state as Appalachia, full of incest and bare-footed hillbilly culture. Despite all the negative things there, Kentucky is a great state. It was orignally settled by people from both Virginia and Pennsylvania. It has 4 metropolitan statistical areas: Louisville, Lexington, Owensboro, and Covington.
Kentucky is supposed to be a pro-Unionist Midwestern state who does most of its business with Indiana and Ohio.

A place where you’re more likely to die from a heroine overdose than support yourself on the state’s retirement system. A place where you think the education system couldn’t get any worse, but then it does. Kentucky is a place where the citizens stupidity is only overshadowed by their willingness to be losers for thei entire lives.
Kentucky is the worst fucking state in the entire known universe and is full of fucking losers that will never be anything more than the welfare recipients that they are.
