Alright, I'm throwing caution into the wind here. Whose side would you rather be on? With midwest or with the south? Who is tougher? Who has a better work ethic? Who is more helpful and polite/respectful to their neighbors?
Obviously, my vote goes to the Midwest.

You should just make a poll that says: "Do you live in the midwest or south" because thats all this is.

Fight? Madness. A fight between these two would be like that scene in Braveheart where the Scotts and Irish run to the middle of the field only to shake hands, and then unite against the real threat - NY/LA city boys.

This. I will add, though, that it's cold enough during the winters here to keep much of the New England riff-raff out. Who wants to retire to IN? Nobody. It's too friggin' cold here. They all wanna invade SC, NC and FL. |

Depends on what states you define as South and Midwest. There is more population in the South I believe and we do love our weapons down here as well... It will just be hard trying to get all the obese unemployed/medicare/welfare people off their asses.

I beg to differ. I worked for a company based in Atlanta and travelled back and forth between here and there often. Night and day difference between the St.Louis office and the Atlanta office. Nothing ever got done on time down there. Folks moved like fuckin molasses on a cold day. Even the OP Manager (from Alabama) mentioned to me once how we had a stronger work ethic than his local crew. The people down there are much more friendly I will give them that. |
