General Politics Discussion VIII [ARCHIVED] • Page 240

Oh no I agree - the Midwest is a cesspool of terribleness - Indiana is just as bad

just said Wisconsin because 1. relevant to the article and 2. I lived in a town similar for 20 years

 

Thought the same fucking thing.

 

That envelope is the size of her Torso.

 

Minnesota is hands-down better than Wisconsin in every way except for sports

I went to college in Wisconsin I am allowed to say this

 

my very tall son

 

D1, D2, D3, Pro sports - Wisconsin aces us at everything

 

Minnesota will always have Vikings legend Brett Favre.

 

Me to the packers

 

I'm just shocked he'd throw his hat in with the same people he'd happily knock out for denying his moon landing lol

 

Minnesota loses points just for calling Wisconsin "Sconny".

 

I call it 'sconsin

 

My favorite of that area right now is probably South Dakota TBH but they have an unfair advantage of being home to Badlands NP and the entire Black Hills region.

I imagine when I finally get to see more of Minny than just Minneapolis and a bunch of highway, it'll be right up there. Voyageurs NP awaits a future visit, and I plan on getting to that furthest northern point in the continental US at some point.

 

Wisconsin kinda sucked TBH, though it was probably hurt by the weather being cold and rainy and dreary as we passed through.

 

My hometown sucked growing up but randomly got cool when I was grown up which is nice.

 

I come from one of the more Republican-heavy areas of NJ so my hometown sucks but I currently live in one of the more diverse areas of NJ so it's good now.

 

I was gonna say they all look photoshopped together

 

Quite the opposite here Went from AP to Manchester.

 

Wisconsin produced one of the worst human beings I've ever met

this isn't the state's fault, but it IS my only firsthand experience with the place so here we are

and I went to Minnesota once in February and my best review is "oh god why is this weather happening"

these are my very helpful travel reviews

 

Having lived in both MN and WI, I can say that they're both bad. Fall is nice, though.

 

I think it was last year here in MN where it hit -25 F ambient, not wind chill - that was a fun week....

 

The Twin Cities rule. Big pass on most of the rest of the state unless you’re big into the outdoors

 

The whole strip of land that graces the western edge of Lake Superior is pretty nice

 

Yes. The North Shore is my happy place.

 

I quite liked Minneapolis (only place I went, over the course of a long weekend), I'm just from coastal California and therefore was not mentally equipped for what that kind of real winter is like

 

Lol this just reminded me that I have an implicit bias built into hating Wisconsin because when I was 19 my 17 year old g/f at the time cheated on me with a 23(!) year old dude from Wisconsin. So maybe that’s why I didn’t enjoy it on our trip

So yeah! I’m with you on Wisconsin not producing good humans! Lol

I did like the brewery we went to in Milwaukee tho.
