Wisconsinites face it all the time – friends who see our lives here and think they want to join in on that action. But they don’t know we just put on a really good facade. There’s no actual reason anyone would want to live in this forsaken state. The midwest? Please, how blah. We’re just smiling so much in all our pictures because of the beer.

Anyone thinking they might want to set down roots in Wisconsin should think again. Here’s a list to show you exactly why Wisconsin is truly the worst:

1. Everyone knows Wisconsin is just a flyover state. There's nothing to see here.

Driving through Wisconsin is just so very boring.
2. Listen, just because it's a "Great Lake" doesn't mean it can compare to the views on "real" water.

Freshwater is so dumb and useless, anyway.
3. Plus, it's cold and snowy all the time. Like 10 months a year, right?

Nothing fun can happen in weather like that.
4. Plus, Wisconsinites are such losers. Nobody there every wins anything.

It's a mystery how we aren't just all super-depressed with the sad state of our lives.
5. It's just nothing but farmland.

What a waste of space - and so smelly. Why ever would you want to be so close?
6. Nothing original has ever come out of Wisconsin.

We're just straight-laced and square. We've got nothing to offer the rest of the world.

Ok, so maybe that was a bit of sarcasm, since Wisconsinites know our state is actually rather awesome. And we’re totally ok if the rest of the country isn’t in on the joke. That’s just more bratwurst and custard for the rest of us.

What do you think? What other reasons are there that folks should TOTALLY avoid the Dairy State?
