        I think a large part of why Ohio is so bad is because we don’t run city water very far outside of any city. That and the well water quality suffers from higher sulfur content in many parts of the state.

          I’d like to believe that’s true, but I’ve also had Cuyahoga Falls water and Marietta water… Cuyahoga Falls water taste awful, and Marietta water makes me burp (… which is just plain weird). Akron water is okay, but kind of smells.

      WHOOOOO Oklahoma #3! Let’s go, let’s go, we can do it! We can be the #1 worst! Yeeaaahhh!

      People always told me to be proud of “my state” but now they’re (imaginarily) looking at me like I’ve done something wrong. Weird. Anyway, halp, get me outta here v.v
