Worst State Ever shirt
November 24th, 2015 at 12:26 PM ^
As a life long Michigan fan and a life long resident of Ohio, I find some of those shirts offensive. While I hate Ohio state WAEUTM, it's a great place to live. After all, many of our recruits are from Ohio.

I own and wear the shirt, but I do kinda feel bad when someone with Ohio connections doesn't get the joke and says something.
I also feel bad for people that can't recognize a US state with distinctive borders. Not recognizing Ohio isn't like messing up a four corners state or forgetting whether Vermont or New Hampshire points up. Americans should be pretty solid on that, but I digress.

So explain the joke. If they don't find it funny, chalk it up to the thousands of other jokes in the world they don't find funny and move on. If they're offended by your feelings about Ohio then they're the ones who should feel bad.

I do, and they usually get it at the word "Michigan". It isn't messing up my life or anything, I just don't want random people to think I'm personally insulting them because they don't see the maize and blue context.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:20 PM ^
I guess I don't understand how insulting a state can become a personal insult. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Enough Ohio talk. GO BLUE!

Milwaukee=worst city ever.
November 24th, 2015 at 2:22 PM ^
That's certainly an opinion.

IMO, the shirt can be read two ways, which is part of the genius. Seems like the second may be more appealing to you:
- Ohio is the worst state (geographically/politically/as a whole) in the United States of America. I.e. The state of Ohio is the worst state ever.
- Ohio "State" is one of many state universities (both in funding, and in name). Of said universities, OSU is the worst ever. I.e. Ohio State is the worst state ever.

Or maybe they agree. I can't remember, it's been too long since I've seen that show. But Milwaukee is the home of Lenny and Squiggy, so it can't be too bad.

We even have a statue of the Fonz

Stated by someone most likely has never lived outside of Michigan.

in the form of an Ohio-shaped cooler w/ a smell rising
November 24th, 2015 at 12:29 PM ^
Ohio sucks.
November 24th, 2015 at 12:29 PM ^
That your offended.
November 24th, 2015 at 12:32 PM ^
His offended what?
November 24th, 2015 at 12:29 PM ^
Is it really that bad?
November 24th, 2015 at 4:44 PM ^
No, it isn't. Some people are just really sensitive.
November 24th, 2015 at 12:30 PM ^
Its a T-shirt man.
I can make a few thousand sugestions of things to be offended by before this.
November 24th, 2015 at 12:56 PM ^
Should be a cat
:/
November 24th, 2015 at 1:14 PM ^
I actually have a T-Shirt of this ;)
November 24th, 2015 at 1:47 PM ^
It's a t-shirt.
November 24th, 2015 at 3:59 PM ^
Haven't you heard? Michigan isn't recruiting Ohio. I could give you 6 reasons why not...
November 24th, 2015 at 12:30 PM ^
I blame Ohio State for most of the problems in my home state. I think they are the reason Ohio usually lands on those Top X most miserable/fat/depressed lists. And we have all this while their team has been good. Imagine how bad it will be after a decade or two of Harbaugh!
November 24th, 2015 at 12:40 PM ^
I swear to fucking god, everything offends someone.

Well shit, I'm offended by your being offended at his swearing.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:07 PM ^
offends me.

All due respect, but that's bullshit.
November 24th, 2015 at 3:21 PM ^
because it can still be zero respect, and the recipient of the phrase will never know.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:54 PM ^
That's what she said?
November 24th, 2015 at 1:24 PM ^
Just now, a girl in the office said "I went to the worst place ever..."
And I replied....
"Ohio?"
November 24th, 2015 at 2:19 PM ^
What was her worst place ever? I must know.
November 24th, 2015 at 4:21 PM ^
and I live in the St Louis area, so you're probably in no danger of ever going there.
November 25th, 2015 at 8:51 AM ^
I spent a few fun weekends in St. Louis while attending UM Rolla my freshman year. You live in a beautiful city. But yeah, probably not making my way back any time soon.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:49 PM ^
Laurie got offended that I used the word "puke". But to me, that's what her dinner tasted like.
November 24th, 2015 at 12:43 PM ^
You can think Ohio is a great place to live and it can still be the worst state ever. Those things are not mutually exclusive. Also, recruits are escaping Ohio to come to Ann Arbor.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:29 PM ^
...with respect to the state of errrhio generally could be remedied with a simple redesign of the shirt; rather than "Worst State Ever"....
"THE Worst State Ever."
November 24th, 2015 at 4:47 PM ^
I want to upvote you more that once for that.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:03 PM ^
I agree with this.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:04 PM ^
guiding principle in life.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:00 PM ^
You'll feel better all the way around.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:08 PM ^
Do you think that Mike Weber or Damon Webb get upset when their fans sing about 'not giving a damn about the whole state of Michigan, I'm from Ohio'? I'd guess no.
November 24th, 2015 at 1:30 PM ^
Seeing as they aren't "from Ohio" and do "give a damn" for at least a part of Michigan, I'd probably say that's not their favorite song.
