By Matt Anderson • May 10th, 2008 • Category: Features |
With summer right around the corner, it’s time to start making your summer road tripping plans! The problem is: your plans are terrible. No one wants to see the world’s largest ball of yarn, do they? No one wants to go to Branson unless they’re a member of AARP. Well I’m here to help all you road ninjas; and to keep you from sawing logs at the wheel, I’m reviewing the five most boring states to drive through so you can get to your precious antique shops in as few pieces as possible! Snoring in at number five on our list is the peanut butter state, Indiana!
The first thing that you’ll notice when you enter Indiana is a welcome sign. On this sign is the nebulous slogan “Crossroads of America.” Now really, it must take more work to come up with a slogan this boring. I can just see some chump hard at work at the Indiana Bureau of Creativity coming to his boss saying “Sir, I have come up with a motto well befitting our great state: The Crossroads of America!” His boss should have said “Jenkins you imbecile, that’s not a motto, it’s rubbish!” I would call this out with such descriptors as a “let down” or “pathetic,” but I don’t want to give the impression that I hold any expectations for Indiana.
