10 Downright Funny Memes You’ll Only Get If You’re From Iowa

By Rachel Morey Flynn | Published November 02, 2017

A meme is a social idea or a piece of common culture that spreads quickly throughout a group. For Iowans, our close proximity to a lot of open farm land, the fact that we have to deal with some wild weather patterns, and our love for this little piece of the American Midwest makes for a lot of great material.

1. It's pretty clear to anyone who has spent their life as an Iowan why this is an epic event.

2. Where? Ohio? Idaho? Oh...Iowa! Potatoes, right?

3. It's funny because we know it's going to happen about once each year. Thunder-snow in April? Absolutely. Followed by a heat wave.

4. Oops. Well, at least Iowan cows are friendly.

5. It's a matter of perspective. For Iowans, a 50-degree day in winter is a gift that calls for celebratory shorts-wearing.

6. Anyone who went to a small-town high school with an FFA has seen something similar.

7. Don't you love it when Nashville gets a light dusting of snow and they close the town?

8. You can't get by in a college town as a police officer without a sense of humor. The ISU police are keeping the mood light in Ames.

9. By now we are used to the wild swings in temperature from one day to the next. It's still fun to talk about, though. We never really put away our "winter clothes."

10. It's really not fair to single out Clinton. Many Iowa towns have a similar ratio of bars to churches. It's a rural thing.
