i have not finished reading this but i just wanted to tell you what led me to fimd this. Im in the bathroom at work, frustrated with current state laws that prohibit me from obtainjng the only medicine that works for me without turning me imto a full blown drug addict, I typed "I hate indiana" in google search so i could read why other people hate it here and hopefully not be as frustrated as i was when i started knowing that other relatively close by citizens felt the same. Anyways im originally from northwest indiana, then moved to just south of south bend, and now i live in kokomo, i worked on the east side of indy for about two months and then came to the place im at now which is in Carmel. not sure which side, we are just north of 86th street. Its way better now that inhave mobed down here closer to the city, but growimg up out in the country in Indiana is rough. ive never hated a staye more in my life than this one. i come from a poor family so im doimg everything i can to get the hell out of this sad sack sorry good for nothing ass state. People here dont value anything, people here absoluely digust me, and the buggest thing ive learned about Indiana, is that people will do absolutely any, and everything to avoid actually doimg their job/doing anything. People here are so lazy, and very very very uneducated about what goes on outside of their hometowns. So yea to wrap it all up, I feel your pain, and I Hate INDIANA!!!!!

I’m so glad you found my piece, Cody! How wild that you are in Carmel around 86th street. 20 years ago when I was in college I used to work at a movie theater nearby called Castleton Arts that showed foreign and indie movies.

Why do you think the culture in Indiana is so terrible? Do you think it’s something specific about the state or is it more just the Midwest in general that sucks?

And where do you want to live instead?
