jasonville is 5 miles away from my town :shocked: we've nicknamed it J-tucky here in Linton because of the inbreds 😉
 
I spent about 8 years in Indiana, 5 of which were at Purdue. Got out of Indiana after I transferred from one plant to another down in Kansas. Have no plans to go back to the hellhole and boring state of Indiana.

Yeah, but I think Hymera puts up a good fight for the title... Oh wait, no, Hymera competes the klan kapitol title. :disgust:
 
Oh gosh. Indiana sucks.

I am from Southern California and I am in Terre Haute for 3 years for school. There is NOTHING in Indiana except corn fields and soy bean fields. The most exciting thing about the city I am in is that there is a Wal-Mart. The weather is stupid. It can go from being 70F to snowing in one day.

Don't get me wrong. The people here are nice, but the state itself sucks. Most students I know who are from Indiana agree.

Because there is nothing to do in Indiana, all the entertainment comes from basketball, the Colts, and car racing.
 
I lived in South Bend for 4 years while I was a student at ND. There's not much to do in the city (at least from a college student's perspective) and it was cold/snowy from about November to April. The sun rarely shined during that time too.

It was not a place I would like to live, although ND was great.

hahahha are u for real...if you like no hills and a bunch of corn its AWESOME
 
Actually southern Indiana is quite hilly. And the Wabash river and surroundings are beautiful.

But I shouldn't really say anything, because Indiana is better off, the fewer people on the internet know about it.

Of course, the Colts blow it in the playoffs every year so football season ends early.

Hahahahahahahahaaaaa! :laugh:

Maybe the ones on college campuses that come from other states would be, but you won't get quite as desirable statistical distribution if you consider the ones all of the small towns.
 
Its not so bad in northwest Indiana. I have Lake Michigan beaches 5 minutes from me,
Chicago is only a 45min drive or you can hop on the South Shore trains and get there quicker. If I just want to take off on a motorcycle away from everyone I can hit country roads through cornfields about 15 minutes south from me.

Gary is only a couple towns west of me.

As Tom Petty says, nothing's better than an "Indiana girl on an Indiana night".

So you've never lived in a small town. My town has about 7000 people and we have nurtured girls that are as hot as any super model out there--incredible faces and bodies.

I lived in a small town in Indiana for about 2 years. Not a single hot girl seen in the 2 years I lived there.

And I've lived in small towns in Indiana for about 13 of my 19 years, and have seen very few...

I lived in Carthage and Bedford, a LOT of quarries around Bedford!

Have you seen the movie "Breaking Away"? Do the quarries look like that? That is so AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Other (tarnished) side, for more balanced perspective:

Indiana passes the first eugenics law in 1907, to forcibly sterilize (especially castration of males) criminals, poor people (they called it the almshouse people), teenage boys in reform school, and prisioners.

Apparently they sliced away on a lot of people.

Unfortunately, our history also tells us that Indiana had the highest population of KKK members in the country when they were in their prime (1930's).
