Indianapolis: You Gotta Live Somewhere

[johnchessant]

Where people get the confidence to say banger lines like that on the spot instead of boiler plate answers like "it's great" or "it's fine" will always be a mystery to me.

For a few years the slogan of Muncie Indiana was, “Muncie, we’re trying”, so there’s some Indiana energy for ya

Imagine being that one guy in Indianapolis that convinced John Green to stay there by saying "You gotta live somewhere" lmao

My brother would try to race each other from a leg to an arm on funky bones. If you see this John, tell your wife thanks for so many memories.

Nebraska's official tourism motto is "Nebraska: Honestly, it's not for everyone."

Indianapolis: “you gotta live somewhere and this… this ain’t bad”

[blaster]

I'm pretty sure John is the entirety of Indianapolis's tourism promotion.

As a fellow resident of the great city of Indianapolis, your feelings resonate with me 😅 Also, I did not know Sarah helped bring us funky bones! So cool!

I moved around a lot as a kid, but we eventually settled down in Indianapolis when I was like nine.

Then I moved around a lot as an adult, but we eventually settled down in Indianapolis.

Love this place.

Having originated in Baltimore and having lived in PA, Delaware, Virginia, southern NC, and now Oregon- I love Oregon. I can't imagine living anywhere else. And if you feel that way about Indiana, they're a better state for your being there.

I used to live in Fort Wayne, but I would go to Indianapolis every now and then, Indiana is better than you’d think

When i lived in chicago in 2009, A Czech guy I knew from prague had to work in Indianapolis a lot. He told me Indianapolis was his favorite American city.

I've lived in a few cities, and Indianapolis is my absolute favorite. I grew up in Broad Ripple the 80's, and it was a trippy experience. I love this city and, other than the winters, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else! ❤️❤️

Hello there fellow transplant Hoosier. We live in Southern Indiana in a small city called Jeffersonville. We lay claim to the countries oldest candy store that is still open today making candy in the window for everyone to see. We live in the downtown area about 4 blocks from the store and the river that has an old bridge that was turned into a pedestrian walkway so you can walk over to Louisville in about 5 mins. I absolutely love it here and have been here for 20 years now. When our last child leaves the nest in about 10 or so years we do want to get some land, most likely in eastern KY bc it’s cheap and beautiful. Best wishes.

Indiana, Vermont, and Illinois.

The states that I only remember when playing monopoly

The midwest may not be the exciting life that society tells us to seek. There's no beaches, mountains, attractions at every corner. But it provides all four seasons and the cozy reminder that falling in love with the mundane is a life lived happily

I lived in Columbus, IN for a couple years as a kid (about 1995-1997). I was a kid so I have this kind of nostalgic feeling for that time. I haven't gone back since then, but I'd love to see it again and all the places I loved.

Hay I'm from Indiana and I love it even if I'm in Louisville Kentucky I still love my home town

[YaleWall]

Yep. I moved to Indianapolis for 6 months, and now I’ve been here for 13 years. I legit love it more than any other place I’ve been though. It grows on you :)
