    You know it’s strange to me how the US has a Midwest but there’s no middle.

      Midwest got its name because at one point it was very hard to get past the Rocky, Cascadia, and Coastal mountain ranges that each span from Canada to Mexico. So the Midwest was sort of the middle point between the East Coast and the Rockies.

      The whole continent is the west and the midwest is in the middle of it.

        Nah, too logical. I prefer the explaination that the USA just doesn’t have a center.

      It’s there, it’s a giant cornhole, if you approach too close the force of ennui will pull you in and prevent you from escaping

        Can confirm, the cost of living is too low, and the ground is too flat. I can’t get out.
