Ohio as a state is a liminal space full of cornfields and a feeling of wasted potential. A disproportionate number of American astronauts come from Ohio, proving that the primary thing on the minds of Ohioans is getting as far away from Ohio as possible no matter the cost.
If something is Ohio it’s a place or a situation that you don’t want to be in. It’s a dead end with a feeling of vague discomfort.
Ohio has a LOT of people in it for no real reason, if you look at the population for states the top 3 all have something that’s unique… then there’s Ohio. There’s nothing going on from Ohio it’s just kinda… there. So naturally it became a meme
What I’m getting out of all these replies is that Ohio is to the United States as Acre is to Brazil.
… I wonder if every country has a place like this. Some god-forsaken part of the country that has nothing at all going for it and so people like to clown on it (for Acre the joke we do is “it doesn’t actually exist” and/or “it’s home to all sorts of cryptids and bizarre creatures”)
Well in Germany people joke that Bielefeld doesn’t exist, so there’s that. I feel like there’s a lot of different themed places that exist in many countries though, like “the incest place” (Alabama in the US, Saarland in Germany)
“Ohio”
What does it mean? Yknow other than a place in the US that had some scary chemical leaks some time ago.

Basically New Jersey
I think it means boring.
Does anyone actually want to be in Ohio? If something is Ohio, it’s that vague uncomfortable ugly failure feeling.
