Oklahoma is Better Than Wherever the Hell You’re From

I just want to start this article by apologizing to you, my dear, sweet Oklahoma. From your waving wheat and Red Dirt music, to your science-illiterate senators and closed liquors stores on Sundays, there are many things that define this beautiful state. And for a time, I forgot how unique and special you are. I have written too many articles poking fun of your antics and lawmakers. But here I am, returning to you with my tail between my legs like the prodigal son. Except I am a chick. But that doesn’t really matter. You get what I am saying.

I spent the last week in Indiana. But not just any part of Indiana. Indianapolis, Indiana.

I honestly thought about making a joke about how Indianapolis really just translates to Indiana City, which is the least creative name to give a city. Then I remembered that I live in Oklahoma City. We didn’t even try to name it anything cool like Oklahomopolis. So in some ways we are even lamer than Indianapolis.

New Report Says that Oklahoma the 39th Best Healthcare in the State.

But in many ways, Oklahoma is much cooler than Indianapolis. I was traveling to this city to attend the nation’s largest board game convention with the nerd I married. A city cannot be much lamer than being the host of a board game convention. In fact, I firmly believe that Oklahoma City would be the kid to shove Indianapolis into a locker. But Oklahoma is not only superior to Indiana, but also to many other states and regions. So here is proof Oklahoma is better than wherever in the hell you’re from.
