I'm struggling to find a stereotype for DC here. Mayhaps a crime-ridden crackhead city, but there are other cities out there that embody that much better than DC. A little help here?

A city of Northern charm and Southern efficiency.

I should probably have my head checked, because I find myself in complete agreement with Nikov.

Ya, Ohio would be known for corn if Iowa didn't exist. But as it stands, Iowa = corn.

You own a couple guns and have been known to be violent with them in the past. Lets not forget the chair you blew away for the hell of it.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

Yeah, Ohio has a lot of corn but it also has a lot of meth, to the point where they're putting additives in propane to dye your face and hands under a blacklight if you smoke meth, or so I've heard.

Any stereotypes on Switzerland?
Fun accents (:
I was going to say hot women, but I had my European geography mixed up. I was thinking of Sweden.
I almost made that mistake earlier. Good thing I held back posting that response.

But it went more like "Confidence busters to women" and the source of the term "Burly/Macho". Or simply Arnold.

Michigan #2 here. Well, our radio is shared with Windsor, Ann Arbor's liberality off setes the conservatism of Texas, Lousiana, Mississipi, Alabama, and Georgia combines, 5 miles south and another 6 east from my hous and you get the northwest city of Homeless Jobless Criminal Black People, Michigan.

The hockey, Jim Joyce's blown call, hockey, a hockey rivalry with Pittsburg, twice as much Sindey Crosby hate as anywhere else in the country, hockey, horrible football, cars, unemployment, vacant lots, black people, Eminem, hockey, a short drive from lowering the drinking age by two years, lakes, hockey, more lakes, Due North of Canada, hockey, and... well, that's about it.

And then the Yoopers. Oh, God, they're like a new state. Well, they're similar to rednecks, but different.

I think that Illinois should be known for corn too.  I mean my town just got a minor leage team and named them the Cornbelters.
Also corruption.

Having lived in the chicago burbs for years...

Illinois is that state with Chicago and nothing else. Anything south of I-80 is "southern Illinois" and people I met from Southern IL in Springfield spoke with Southern drawls. So that stereotype will always be true for me.

I actually live in a slightly remodeled house and don't personally own a car. Though Milly has this old Diesel powered clunker and Vicky has a Truck.
