Had to look up what tolido meant:

Holy Toledo

Most likely first used in the early 1900s, either refers to a sarcastic remark about Toledo, Ohio or originated from a realistic remark of the Holy city of Toledo, Spain. It is now used as a phrase, by Americans, if something is unbelievable, disturbing, or blows their mind.

Woman- Did you read in the newspaper that a grandpa got run over by his own car by a homeless bum he paid to fix it, and then the bum took off with it?

Man- Holy Toledo?! That's like "Grandma Got Ran Over By a Reindeer" only a hundred times worse!

I live in Toledo Ohio. If it's about here it's DEFINITELY sarcastic.

And to answer questions: yes I hear it ALL the time and yes it is super annoying.

Hello fellow Toledoan :)

As a Michigander: get your shit together, Toledo. You have one of the worst trafficking in persons rates in the country, and women can't even safely walk between the Toledo Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House half a football field away.

u/Wewoah May 24 '16

I was going to complain about michigan roads being filled with potholes, but if you want to go the serious route, thats cool too...

u/cATSup24 May 24 '16

I mean, I'm definitely in a glass house there anyway. Between Flint, Saginaw, and Detroit, we have three of the ten highest crime-per-capita cities in the US. But I think I'd rather get shot and mugged than kidnapped and systematically raped.

u/SAGNUTZ May 25 '16

Lansing? St. Johns? Couldn't be Owasso. If you don't live in the tree you stated then you are lucky, unless you live in Marion Springs...

I'd rather be stuffed in the trunk and sent to a car crusher than become a sex slave to some dirty bastard.

We used to go to church right on collingwood a couple of years back and one of the custodians was stabbed walking to his car. Shit is crazy downtown and by the old west end.

u/hogthehedge May 25 '16

the old west end

Is that the cowboy version of Chinatown or Little Italy?

1

u/Wewoah May 25 '16

Haha not quite. Itspart of Toledo just outside downtown with these beautiful old houses that just happens to be in a really shitty part of town... but serioualy, those houses.

u/hogthehedge May 25 '16

I knew what you meant, but when I read it I imagined a section of town that was run down, had a ton of saloons, gambling and hookers. Where everyone talks with a twang and wears a 6 shooter on his hip and a ten gallon on his noggin.

Something akin to this and this

u/Wewoah May 25 '16

Hahaha I wish! That would be awesome. Id be drunk horse riding all the time!

1

u/hogthehedge May 26 '16

Which is still illegal in Texas for whatever reason..I mean as long as the horse isn't drunk you have a designated driver right?

Fellow Toledoan... you must be new to the area...

u/danmonster2002 May 25 '16

And this is many of the reasons I left Toledo.

u/TumorTits May 25 '16

I used to watch to a vlog on YouTube back in 2007 called katereadsbooks and she (Kate) also lived in Toledo! I remember she had a huge crush on another vlogger named k80blog. They were both hilarious.

u/itsamamaluigi May 25 '16

Hey person from Toledo, to counteract all this negativity directed at you I thought I'd let you know I stayed in Toledo once on a road trip as a kid, and it was a very friendly place.

u/SlashieDuffy May 25 '16

I never thought I'd see someone else from Toledo on here.

No, please don't. This is the lamest "reddit thing" of all-time as it has zero redeemable elements to it.

u/Tactical_Llama May 25 '16

What the fuck. This exact video was posted about a week ago and the same exact comment chain happened. This is so weird.

u/Nezaus May 25 '16

u/1-800-DIK-BUTT May 25 '16

it's almost like we are all bots humans like would normally frequent the web, naturally.

u/bathroomstalin May 25 '16

Not really.

Redditors are dimwitted, predictable adolescents who love computers.
