Cheese curds?
Stay as long as you like! Thanks for coming! – The Management
Pretty sure my comment was “Go home. Thanks. – The Management.”
Didn’t know MM was censoring comments now. Assholes.
Not true! That’s exactly what you wrote! Maybe you have split personality disorder? Anyway, the main thing is you’re the asshole.
You can both be assholes.
Allan,
Love you!
Me too!
Love you guys too!
wow..really?
Yep.
O CAPTAIN! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up–for you the flag is flung–for you the bugle trills; 10
For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths–for you the shores a-crowding;
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,
You’ve fallen cold and dead.
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won; 20
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
I don’t get it.
I’m all for Midwest pride, but “No Coast?” I believe Michigan has the longest coastline of any state save for Alaska.
Surf Ohio
Yeah, it’s the “Third coast.”
maybe that’s North Coast
I see big ol’Lake Superior up there on the right corner, maybe there’s no hip hop artists rapping about their respective coasts up there in Michigan,Wisconsin and Minesota…
I think this is about as north as it gets. No rappers north of Flint.

Duluth, MN is supposed to have killer surf in February.
Minnesota in February, you silly kids.
Looks like they just got let out of the home.
You know, that kind of “home”.
I run into this a lot. Transplants bursting with pride for whatever podunk town they came from.
Trouble is, they never seem to leave soon enough to return home.

Yeah, I’m with Haz Been. Don’t you think it shows more character to leave your home and try something new than to just stay in one place for your whole life?
Totes!
Who said anything about staying in one place? Just stay out of California.
What about just avoiding silly localism and regionalism in the first place? I bet people in SF and Portland and NYC and Chicago and Atlanta and Denver and SLC and Detroit and LA and Seattle and OKC and Minnesota and Philly and Boston and Austin and DC and NOLA and Asheville and Miami and wherever else all have pretty similar radness in their lives…
Native eh? Why don’t you go back to tonzak ville … WE are the natives, fella!
Here’s a blog I like: http://ageofhopeministries.blogspot.com/2011/10/crybaby.html
Wanna meet up for a drink, Alan? We could talk about how much we agree on things!
Sounds cool! Shoot me an email!
This is my favorite MM comment thread yet.
YEEEEHAW Representin Ohio, my podunk town!
As long as I can wear my “California Uber Alles” shirt when I go visit my transplant wife’s family in Minnesota, I have no problem with this.
The word “transplant” is so dumb
