Indiana

This article is perfect. Don't fuck with it!

Indiana is a mythical land somewhere in the United States of America that is home to corn, rednecks, Christians, cats, drag racing and meth. Indiana is a proud former (as of Last Tuesday) member of the Dumbfuckistan province of America. Nothing happens in Indiana. It is commonly known to Americans as the "are we there yet?" state, because every highway in America goes through Indiana.

Indiana's biggest bluff is the fact that it has the highest percent population of rednecks of any non-Southern state. A significant number of black people and Mexicans also live in certain areas but the only reason why they are allowed to is because they make up the bulk of the Pacers basketball team, since everybody knows that Whitey can’t jump.

Indiana residents are called "Hoosiers" due to the fact that nobody knows how to pronounce "Indianan". Some argue that the term originates from asking visitors "Who'sh 'ere?" while others claim it refers to frontiersmen constantly brawling with each other and having to ask "Whose ear?" they bit off to keep track of things. In reality, it comes from all of the raunchy, incestuous sex that Indiana men had with their sisters/cousins/daughters, constantly yelling, "Who’s yer daddy?" during this. The term caught on quickly and is still used today, despite the fact that in the rest of the Midwest (in fact, the rest of the world), "Hoosier" is used to refer to fat, smelly, white trash. Pointing this out to a Hoosier is a terrific IRL drama-generating technique, unless they are not white trash; then they will just shrug and agree with you.

Culture

Indiana culture revolves around four things: corn, basketball, meth labs, and NASCAR. Other pastimes include:

  • Growing corn
  • Harvesting corn
  • Eating corn flakes
  • Making cornbread
  • Shitting in cornfields
  • And lets not forget those melons for the poor folk

  • Stupidity
  • Garfield

Major Imports


Cities

Indiana has no cities, just bumfuckistan farmtowns and the occasional gas station. The closest thing to a metropolitan area is the capital of Indiana, Indianapolis, which is nothing more than a Indy Car motor speedway surrounded by a series of trailer parks occupied by rednecks and niggas more rednecks. These two groups often use chainsaw fights to choose which piece of wood they'd like to live under. The north side of Indianapolis is inhabited by indie fucks and rich people that baw about being from Indiana and how no one intellectual lives in Indiana. All of these people fap to pictures of Chicago

  • South Bend is just one gigantic goddamn fucking homeless shelter, with the occasional off-Broadway show like "Ingrown Pubic Hairs: The Musical" and rumors are they have a football team there.
  • Jasper is the wood capital of the world, without the aid of Viagra. Their high school basketball team sucks so much, their only state championship was in 1949. They have an annual festival called "Strassenfest", which is German for Mardi Gras.
  • Evansville is one of those major cities without fancy buildings. Instead, it's strewn with shitloads of highways, Fucktons of minimalls and will have a clover-shaped road on the way.
  • Michigan City is a casino full of fail and a beach with niggers crawling on it like crabs. There is also a strip mall that has MOAR AZNS than Aza.
  • Terre Haute is a special city in Vigo County. It's pronounced Veego, not Veyego like some dumbfucks do. It was once inhabited by Larry Bird (he went to school there) and witnessed the execution of Timothy McVeigh (yay?). It has also been thoroughly dissed by Steve Martin at least 100 years ago. Terre Haute is also well-known by its fragrance, detectable from passers-by driving through on the Interstate, which comprises a distinct mixture of creosote, paper mill, and shit. Terre Haute is also home to true patriot Kevin Orpurt, the Channel 10 weatherman.

Most of the Chicago metro area lies in northwest Indiana. Indiana is not allowed to collect taxes from anyone living or working in this metro area. Instead they are paid billions of dollars by Illinois to allow Chicago's trash to be dumped in the pumped out swamplands of Lake and Newton counties. This process gives Chicago's large gypsy population income to buy wifebeaters too small for them by hauling the medically condemned filth to it's destination.

Some people claim that Gary is also a major city but this is a lie since it is actually just a large public housing project owned by Chicago for the poor folk. The only reason Chicago tolerates its existence is because it's much easier to open casinos in Indiana and cigarettes and gas are cheaper there.

Time Zone

Indiana cant actually make up its mind what time zone to be in.

 
 
Most of Indiana is in the Eastern Time Zone.
 

 

Most?

This is a significant improvement for the State. Until 2006, most of Indiana refused to accept Daylight Saving Time. The effect of some regions being in CDT, EDT, and EST simultaneously meant there were literally five distinct Time Zones in this one State. The website, What Time Is It In Indiana? although humorously titled, had been a valuable tool for figuring out what the fuck.

Weather

Summer: Uncomfortably warm and sticky. Like your creepy uncle who likes to touch.

Fall: See Winter.

Winter: Like a perpetual ice hurricane that exists only to make you fantasize about how the dead feel no pain. Reduces homeless population by 70%.

Spring: See Winter.

Indiana Official State Motto

"I was born in a small town. Learned to masturbate in a small town. Sister got pregnant in a small town, everybody blamed it on me!"
