So some folks wanted a new silly struggle session that can demonstrate for all new arrivals and visitors the sort of silly shit we debate. So I ask you Hexbears: What is the "midwest"? (hexbear.net)

What is the "midwest"?

any state i mistake for ohio when looking at a map of the US is part of the midwest

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 28 points 1 year ago

Best answer yet.

This answer but Indiana not Ohio. Ohio is barely midwest.

[–] ZapataCadabra@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ohio is only Midwest because it can't be classified as anything else.

"great lakes", an overlapping region shared with some of the midwest and parts of canada

Idk where Ohio is so I just poke around at states that look like desolate hell holes based on their shape and ask if they're Ohio or not, and if I do it for long enough I build up a complete map of the midwest
