That's not ignorance, that's defending yourself against cliquey Midwesterners who lie and make s*** up to make themselves seem cool. Doesn't fly on the coasts and they'd get eaten alive.

Lol, you exemplify what I'm saying.

Look what the poster who said Midwest farmers shamed the East Coast for trying to raise money for them - that's the kind of indirect, fake tone that drives people from the coasts nuts. In my experience, they can be just as judgmental in a real nasty slash passive aggressive way.

The air of superiority is just too much. People are people, no matter where they live. To try to classify everyone in the Midwest the way you are, is a little ridiculous, and a little passive/aggressive.

All of Manhattan is basically flyover country, when I am going between Brooklyn and the Bronx in my private helicopter.

The middle of the country for the most part. Drove from east to west coast and up until about we reached the western portion of South Dakota in the black hills area it was nothing but flat fields as far as the eye could see with nothing around for miles.

It's all relative. I much rather live in Madison, WI than the Central New Jersey exurb where I grew up or touring Yellowstone during the summertime instead of seeing rats scurry by in a stiflingly humid metro station in D.C.

Funny how the East and West Coast dorks call the rest of the country "flyover country", yet airports in "flyover country" (ie Atlanta and Chicago) are busier than theirs. Kinda seems ironic, doesn't it?

Flyover country isnt a thing. There is treasure everywhere. You just have to look for it.

Lots of nice hills in the Midwest....maybe you were sleeping through part of the trip. I suppose it depends what states you drove through, as well.

Are Atlanta and Chicago final destinations or transfer points?
