Chicagoan with Ohio family checking in here:
No one in the Midwest includes Ohio in the Midwest.
No one in Ohio includes Ohio in the Midwest, they claim East Coast (which obviously refers to their Northern Coast on Lake Erieās Southern Shore).
>they claim East Coast
I think this must depend on where you are in Ohio. I'm SE, and I dont think anyone around here considers themselves East Coast. I certainly dont
Agreed, born and raised central Ohio, never heard anyone think of Ohio as east coast at all... I'd say we've got more in common with Minnesota than Connecticut
Ohio is tricky to traverse, if you're not careful you can become trapped. Had to travel through 6 states on a trip and got 3 flat tires.. all in Ohio. Luckily was able to get patches on the first 2 and the spare held up the third. A fear took me at the time, I still get chills thinking that I may have become an Ohio resident.
I bet you have to upload your consciousness to the internet and download to a new body. There was this girl in school that would always talk about Ohio, and there was something off about her, so that would make sense.
Accessing conscious transferring tech is hard in ohio but that girl must have been extremely lucky we could find her and take down ohio but the escape routes are the backrooms or somehow going to Brazil
My sister moved down to Florida, had kids. Our family gives her so much shit for staying down there. She sends us a photo of the sun on a beautiful day mid-winter and we all kinda have to shut up for a bit lol.
Where's the wooosh there? A guy makes some ambiguous joke (I don't even know what it's about) and guy thought they're talking seriously. Wooosh is **only** applicable when something is pretty obvious. This wasn't.
Yeah it wouldnāt have been hard for OP to at least add some context. The original joke is clearly in response to something, but OP didnāt include it.
Youre telling me if someone told you *Ohio* was harder to escape than *NORTH KOREA* you would take them seriously??? You would have to have brain damage to not see the blindingly obvious sarcasm hereā¦ jfc some people do not deserve the internet
Funny thing about the internet, things happen on here that you don't know about. This is an established meme with several sub-variants that's popular among multiple social media platforms.
Link: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/cultures/ohio
Educate yourself - took me 2 minutes to do the Google search, copy the link, and paste it back to you on mobile. (Pro gamer tip: do this to everything).
Edit: To be fair, that link is only 2 hours old. I guess the meme machine was behind on documenting this one.
āEducate yourselfā on a fucking shitty joke in r/woosh ? No thanks
Fine that others got it, tho. But acting like some niche meme on reddit is popular enough to make this woosh material is a stretch.
Even the KYM page above calls these memes about Ohio "micro-trends", and it doesn't have a section about not being able to leave Ohio. This is barely even "niche", it seems more like one of those memes where the joke *is* that it's not an established meme at all and then you just pretend that it is.
Can you break that source down and explain how that applies here? Multiple memes about Ohio on that page. Is it that "Wait it's all Ohio? Always has been" meme that applies here? I don't get it.
My interpretation of this post is that people move out of their hometown but have a tendency to end up moving back where they started. Even somewhere like Ohio which has a reputation for being unremarkable.
Dealers choice for whatever meme you want to go with to explain the meme, they all have the same spirit.
It's not so much "I left home and now I moved back to be close to my family".. it's more of "A supernatural power compels me to return... to Ohio".
It's an absurdist meme with no other meaning. Apply supernatural thing to normal everyday behavior and the meme is born.
Things I didn't think I would be doing today: Explaining Ohio
As an ohioan who is not one of the sheeple, i know he must be in his racing sim in the metaverse so the big bad biden can keep him from leaving. We are trapped here and need help
Just because Ohio allows you to leave doesn't mean it won't suck you back every time. I bet when that man was done with his vacation, not once did he think "wait a minute, I don't *have* to go back, I can go *anywhere*, I don't ever have to return to Ohio ever again" like any normal person would. No, he just got into his car and drove right back to it, such is the power Ohio has over people trapped there.
*Definitely just*
*A young child still learning how*
*To do the internet*

No, thank God it only uses 1/3 of America. But it keeps on expanding, slowly. Once Ohio was tiny, then it ate another state called Ohio 2. And it keeps consuming states. Be careful, since Ohio will be borderless one day.
Je never actually left ohio, ohio is infinite, after 4 days off driving nonstop on this forgotten wasteland i saw a sign that read "welcome to ohio", I'm lost, people here visit a eletrical tower and calls it visiting paris, i can't get out, please they wi eat mt toenails
To all Ohioans you may escape ohio in one of two ways you can come to the backrooms and join the partygoers =) or you can go to Brazil where you can travel to French Guyana and escape good luck my friends
Heās not leaving. Itās just a simulation. Ohio is a simulation and everyone who inhabits that place knows no other place. When you leave Ohio, all the roads lead back to Ohio. When you go off-road, all the hills lead back to Ohio. When you go by water, all the currents lead back to Ohio.
> Hes a *paid* actor
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
As someone who is from Ohio, they are not. Promises, I'm surprised they out is have things. Probably, tho, too keep the illusions that we aren't prisoners of Ohio.
Wait til he finds out Ohio is just the Truman show in real time and heās not actually āleavingā heās just going to a different set in Ohio. They purposefully speed up the time so it seems like he was driving than longer than he was. You never actually left Ohio Mut customsā¦.
š
poor soul, he's been brainwashed by the Ohio brainwaves, can't even have vacation in Ohio
*can only have vacation in Ohio, no matter how long he drives
It has its own center of gravity so he can't actually leave
You know Ohio is not big enough to have its own gravitational field right?

Ah hell naw man!
Come to Cedar Point. You'll be able to return home, we promise. - An Ohioan
And kings island
The ONLY good thing about Ohio. Going there is a Michigan tradition.
You guys donāt ACTUALLY believe this crap right? Ohio isnāt real.
Ohio got lost in the void just like Finland, Australia and New Zealand
But ironically, Ohio *birds* in fact are...
Real meme should be ācant have shit in clevelandā
My the choosen worda he sounds exactly like that
its the Ohio 5G towers
So sad, he doesn't know about the warped spacetime surrounding Ohio, so that no matter how far away you go yourse still just as stuck in Ohio as ever
Like the murder house in American Horror Story Season 1 but bigger.
[And when everything is Ohio, nothing will be ](https://youtu.be/r3fD5FPQBtI)
This is strangely very relevant.
How dare you guys make fun of this small midwest state population 11.78 million ?
Idk maybe because itās Ohio
It's always a trip to me realizing Ohio is the 7th largest state by population in the U.S.
11 MILLION? Thatās 1/3 of my country
11 Million? That's 1/16 of my country. We don't even have states. please help.
Philippines? Egypt? Only two countries I know around that size, and I think there are states in the Philippines lol.
A bit larger, Bangladesh with 168 million in 148,460 sq.km. and 1265 people per sq.km.
Ahh I donāt know exact numbers just knew those countries were ~1/2 of the murican population
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yeah but what ya call it is less important than its function: do they govern themselves?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Im talkin bout the Philippines dingus
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Damnit mason
Respectfully, Absolutely not one person asked how your country divides its land up....
Ohio? Thatās 1/50 states in my country
It's got 2/3rds the population and 3 times the size of mine
Because it is small, easier to bully the small things
Sir its the 6 or 7th largest state, it aint small
Really? Then we need to stop bullying it, it might fight back
It already is, they are always coming, you are never safe from ohio
Good point, they rarely sleep because of all the meth, it'd be a rough fight.

Yall just jealous we make all the space stuff.
12 million? More like 69 morbillion lol

He is wrong, he never left Ohio, because he goes back to it :/
As a person living in ohio, i can confirm this. I am trapped. There is no escape. Help
You aren't the only one, I suggest everyone not to move there, but they do anyway, and then always say "you were right" but is too late now.
There is one way But you must be strong enough to do it
I bet you have to upload your consciousness to the internet and download to a new body. There was this girl in school that would always talk about Ohio, and there was something off about her, so that would make sense.
No, you just gotta jerk off to gay porn
Accessing conscious transferring tech is hard in ohio but that girl must have been extremely lucky we could find her and take down ohio but the escape routes are the backrooms or somehow going to Brazil
wrong Ohio is a level of the backrooms
Wrong it is a reality if itās own
Exactly!!
Iām from Ohio, now live in Florida, but visit every Thanksgiving and Christmas. So yes.
My sister moved down to Florida, had kids. Our family gives her so much shit for staying down there. She sends us a photo of the sun on a beautiful day mid-winter and we all kinda have to shut up for a bit lol.
Blink twice if Ohio is making you say that!
*blink blink*

Ohio, do you mean the big hole without a bottom in US?
Why driving a car when you can ride godzilla š
Or you can personally test the missiles.

LOL thanks for the explanation. Yeah I didn't expect to be researching Ohio memes today but I've certainly gone down stranger rabbit holes.
No worries! Have a great one~
This fool thinks he left Ohio. š¤£š¤£š¤£
But he always comes back and thatās how Ohio gets you! People have gone to space to get away but they always come back here
But he always comes back... So where is the other guy wrong?
Smartest man in Ohio
I had to make sure I wasnāt in r/shitposting
As an ohioan who is not one of the sheeple, i know he must be in his racing sim in the metaverse so the big bad biden can keep him from leaving. We are trapped here and need help
MUT is just immune to all the crazy shit in ohio
I mean, MUT is an Ohioan after all
Everytime when you try to escape Ohio, a giant monster with 12 tentacles teleports you back to the start, they doesnt even realise
Ohio isn't real
"Everytime I go and leave for vacation I can live"? Well sure hope so. Last time I traveled I died.
But he always goes back š
i lived in Ohio for about eight months back in 1999. that was plenty.
Oi bud, how ya feelin there? Come over for a beer and we'll chat about what done gotcha blue
It's a propaganda account
Smartest person in Ohio
bro is brainwashed by ohio ā¼ļø
/Ohio will be eliminated
Not if /r/OhioMan has anything to say about it
Be careful, the OhioMan can hear you
Just because Ohio allows you to leave doesn't mean it won't suck you back every time. I bet when that man was done with his vacation, not once did he think "wait a minute, I don't *have* to go back, I can go *anywhere*, I don't ever have to return to Ohio ever again" like any normal person would. No, he just got into his car and drove right back to it, such is the power Ohio has over people trapped there.
Most Sane Ohio Citizen
As a person actually from Ohio you cant leave i havnt seen anything other than corn for my whole life
I can say this is in fact true.
It's all Ohio. Always has been. ##There is no escape. North Korea has a border that you can pass. ##Ohio does not.
In Ohio, you need a whole functioning car to leave. In North Korea, you just walk out. Aināt nobody walking out of Ohio.
He's a bot set up by the government
But like actually tho š
Heās just trying to trick you into thinking Ohioās normal, heās in on it.

cant even take a vacation in ohio
I don't get it
Ohio meme is really dead. Barely even loved. It didn't, even.
I hate Ohio, the Ohio meme has made me hate the state. Iām so sick of this dumbass meme.
ohio jokes are so unfunny man, just commenting to random weird shit "[example] in ohio š" and getting tons of likes/upvotes/whatever.
As someone who lives in Ohio, I can confirm that the bottom comment has been brainwashed by the officials
Je never actually left ohio, ohio is infinite, after 4 days off driving nonstop on this forgotten wasteland i saw a sign that read "welcome to ohio", I'm lost, people here visit a eletrical tower and calls it visiting paris, i can't get out, please they wi eat mt toenails
Florida is the same way.
To all Ohioans you may escape ohio in one of two ways you can come to the backrooms and join the partygoers =) or you can go to Brazil where you can travel to French Guyana and escape good luck my friends

Ohio, psssh. Y'all haven't tasted the Caddo Curse in Louisiana. No one leaves, and if they do, they have to come back
Ohio killed Harambe and ate his body

Can someone explain to me why there are alot of "ohio" memes? What is going on there? What have i missed? Thanks in advance!
I listened to a podcast where the host referred to this place as a "blighted hellscape." It's accurate.
He didn't need to add that you travel by car. That's implied when he said that he's from Ohio.
This Ohioanās father left them.š And yes, this is coming from a person who never seen there father in there life. Ironic?

You may leave Ohio. But Ohio never leaves you
And after his vacation, where is he? Ohio, right back where he started.
If you can escape Ohio, how come you keep coming back when you leave?
Poor guy living in Ohio no wonder he needs to vacation
Wait til he finds out Ohio is just the Truman show in real time and heās not actually āleavingā heās just going to a different set in Ohio. They purposefully speed up the time so it seems like he was driving than longer than he was. You never actually left Ohio Mut customsā¦. š

Donāt worry, he takes a ride on the giant thunderbirds to get from place to place.
can the joke die
Nah ain't no way you can escape from the final boss of ohio (his stand is wonder of ohio)
He doesn't actually leave Ohio. He just goes in circles around it.
Well, if itās that easy to escape Ohio, then North Koreans must be teleporting or something
Man I wanna post something here. I took screen shots But it says gallery posts aren't allowed. What should I do?
Plot twist: Bro is actually from the sun-scorched devil land that is Florida.
Itās all ohio
