11 Things People From Indiana Love To Hate

If you’ve spend any time in Indiana during the summer, you’ve heard the dreaded cry of a locust. A locust is one of those annoying ugly little creatures that looks a little like a grasshopper. At the end of summer, you will find their dead bodies and left over shells EVERYWHERE.

The state of Indiana is notorious for experiencing all four seasons in the same week. If you get the opportunity to put a winter or summer wardrobe together, you usually don’t get the pleasure of putting it up because it won’t be too long before you need it again.

When other states think about spring, they think about beautiful flowers and fresh green grass. When a Hoosier thinks about spring, they think about how much earlier they are going to have to get up to get to work to deal with all the traffic delays because of endless construction projects.

This one speaks for itself. Hoosiers (for the most part) are avid football fans. If you ask anyone who loves Colts who they hate, the answer is always going to be Patriots. We’ve had a rivalry with them for many, many years. Every time they score a point we want to throw up. Ironically enough, most of us don’t even know why we hate them so much – we just do.

"There is so much more to Indiana than just corn" is really something all Hoosiers get sick of saying.

There is nothing a Hoosier loves to hate more than someone telling them to "watch their weight". I’m not saying everyone in the state is overweight or unhealthy. But, a large chunk of us are one of the two. In the state of Indiana, there is a fast food joint around just about every corner. And even when we cook our own meals, we want butter, grease, and ranch with just about everything. Sure, you are going to find a few Hoosiers that go on some crazed diet and count their carbs, but most of us like to eat food.

Yes, Indiana has a massive Amish community; and we love them. We are also home to a lot of farmers, but that does not mean every single person in our state is either Amish or a farmer. Atheism, Christianity, Satanism, Taoism, Judaism, and Buddhism are just a few of the practices you will encounter in just a single city within our state. We are really big on diversity here.
