Ohio does not exist.

Noun..17th state of the United States...Home of many great human beings and organizations..Land of rolling fields of verdant corn as far as the eye can see....Home to gritty industrial towns and cities..Columbus is the capital and largest city.
Yes, it is rural, and there is a lot of great soil here for growing a lot of crops. Not everyone is a redneck, nor a liberal/conservative, or even ignorant. Most folks here are educated and open minded, people who enjoy the simpler things in life. What's the rush?
There is to be found in Ohio a beauty unlike any in the region. It must be seen to believe it, from the plains of Northern Ohio to the foothills of Appalachia in the south.
Gorgeous country..
About the weather: It can vary from cold to hot quickly, but only in winter. ..Spring is late April, early May..Summer is a blazer, hot from late June to September. Autumn is incredibly pretty and quite temperate weather..Winter is of course the rough one..Wear a few layers...
I have lived here my whole life, and I have seen many parts of our country and have gone abroad several times..
For those who hold disdain for our state: Why dis on Ohio? It is not a hellhole, you depressing and dramatic whiners. It's just kinda dumb to rag on Ohio. Ohio is a great state, just find your niche and settle in.
"OHIO! It's not as bad as people say!"
Thank you for your time..

1) One of the states of the United States of America.
Home to a bunch of formerly bad but now improving pro sports teams, a ton of colleges, the OSU Buckeyes, actual buckeyes, part of the Rust Belt, Cedar Point and a lot of soybeans, cows, and corn.
Ohio contains a little bit of all the typical Midwestern environments- college towns, suburbs, cities, urban areas trying to reinvent themseles, farmlands, etc. It also contains part of Appalachia, and a large number of "swing voters". It has quite a few ardent liberals and conservatives, and has been the home and/or birthplace of eight presidents. The weather, it being part of the Midwest region, is often "crazy" and swings between hot, mild, cold, and freezing. The four seasons are widely known to be "winter, still winter, almost winter, and construction" or something to that effect (believed to be taken from a Jeff Foxworthy chain email).
There's definitely a lot more there than bad drivers, "hicks", and cows, and just driving through the state does not really do it justice. You've got to experience it to really understand it, and then you can pass judgement.
2) A song written by Neil Young (while he was working with Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young) in response to the Kent State Massacre, which occured at Kent State University in Ohio on May 4, 1970 when National Guardsmen opened fire on student protesters on the KSU campus.

The most Goofy Ahh place in the Universe. Often used in various memes, including with a certain Piano riff, or with the song "Swag Like Ohio" by Lil B, referencing how Goofy it is.

The Buckeye State. One of the best states to live in, and all around best in the Union. We have 3 major cities: our Capital; Columbus (aka C-Bus, Bus Town), Cincinnati (aka the dirty/nasty Nati) and Cleveland (the Mistake by the Lake). Home to smaller cities such as; Dayton, Toledo and Akron. 1 NBA team, 1 NHL team, 1 MLS team, 2 NFL teams, 2 MLB teams. We are also home to THE Ohio State University Buckeyes, one of the largest/best universities in the country. Also home to Ohio University, which is filled with raging alcoholics that refer to themselves as "students". Most of us in Ohio, (especially us in Columbus) were born and raised with the Bucks. We bleed Scarlett & Grey. We say things like "you guys" and a drive-thru liquor store is not strange to us. It's the beach, not the shore, and pop, not soda. We are the Eastern most state in the MidWest, and have some of the friendliest people around. Ohio girls are some of the coolest/nicest you will ever meet. We are a big football state, but Lacrosse is another sport everyone plays. We play a little game called Cornhole anywhere we can. We love our corn & we love our beer. We are Ohio. The Heart of it All, and you'd be nothing without us.
Ohio Likes: Scarlett and Grey, tailgating, Cornhole, football, Lacorsse, the Buckeyes, Cedar Point, Chipotle, CommFest...
Ohio DisLikes: that team from Up North (3rd Saturday of every November...) People who do not respond immediately with "I-O" when one screams: "O-H", Buzz Kills (which pretty much includes every citizen of Michigan)
