You think Indiana is bad after having just driven through it to see a concert, and dealing with a handfull of the assoles who live here? I'd willingly trade places. I've lived in Indiaia praticlly my entire life. I'm Seventh Generation born in the state on my mother's side of the family. And I'll be the first to say, IT FUCKING SUCKS HERE.
Now, granted, I live in Bloomington, which is a little spot of blue in a sea of red, and it's a college town, home to Indiana University. So, instead of dealing with rednecks, I get to deal with Gangstas, Sorostitutes, Frat Boys, and Football players. But, all in all, it's not that much better.
I went to High School in Greenfield... the name PRETTY MUCH speaks for itsself there. It's a farming community. And, I didn't graduate from Greenfield-Central High School, home of the "Drive your Tractor to School Day" and the only place that I know of where a brother and sister were voted Homecoming King and Queen.
Now, the reason I didn't get my diploma from G-CHS... I was expelled for having a prop knife for Drama. Zero Tolerance dosen't work. But that's another story.
See, My problem with Indiana... is it sucks... literally. Why else do you think my family has been stuck here for seven generations? I had the chance to move to Chicago with the rest of you, but NOOOOO... I just HAD to stay in Indiana because of my job. Dale, next time you tell me to move, don't let up, kay?
So, yes, you now have it from a native... Yeah, it was bad just visiting... try LIVING in the damn state...
Shit, and I guess I just ruined my chances of convincing the band to play down here someday. OH WELL~ <3
