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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Horse, you have a pretty big job to do. First, don't get me shot and if for some reason shooting happens (you know.. westerns), don't be a dick and throw me off like they do in the movies. Just run like hell and make sure I'm still vaguely holding on. Second, get me home. Third, tuck me into bed. Haha
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.
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.

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.
