I drove through there on the way to Chicago once. I didn't see a single white person that wasn't my mom or dad.
Oh and central Indiana reporting in. We hosted the Superbowl once and we have a lot of corn.

I really hope it snows this winter, we hardly got any snow last year.
[QUOTE=daijitsu;38809451]I'm so sorry you live anywhere near Gary Indiana[/QUOTE]Well I don't live IN Gary thank god.
Portage is still shitty though.
Northern Indiana is pretty cool, well except for Gary. I have relatives that live up in Warsaw, I always love going there.
Champaign IL over here. Nothing but corn and the occasional town.
wisconsin's pretty cool
Used to live in Naperville, Illinois over here. Moved out for a warmer climate.
Western edge of Chicago! This winter is absurdly warm.
Also,
The public parks are getting free WiFi, which is pretty cool.

Shit I went to highschool in Noblesville.
Fuck Carmel.
Now I live in Lombard. After only a few months here I can safely say fuck Indiana. If you don't live in Indy or her burbs then jesus christ it's so incredibly boring.

I was sad when grayslake came up empty handed but then I saw a lake street butted into view
alternatively if you're in a -hurst town you count roads named after trees
