How many dopers are from Ohio,anyway? Are we the most represented,or was it California? Thanks y’all.
Kill me now, but I am living in Ohio. However, I would NEVER claim to be from here.

I know there are a couple more . . . but yeah, Ohio is heavily represented. Says a lot about our position vis a vis the rest of the Midwest in terms of ignorance. 
"I prefer shows of the genre, “World’s Blankiest Blank.”
There’s also a friend of mine, Sucellus, from Toledo. He posts very little but did go the the Columbus confab with me.

Aw, shit. I forgot Otis and Ranger Jeff.
Geez UncleBeer how could you forget them??
I was just going to mention that Sucellus was left out, he made quite an impression!

Me too, me too.
Born in Columbus; lived in Cincinnati until about 20 years ago. Family is still there.
Ohio is the Midwest? I always claim it as part of the Decaying Industrial Northeast.
At least the part I came from, Harvey Pekarland. The great city of Cleveland.
I left for parts east at age 17, but do go back occasionally for kielbasa and Vernor’s.

Hi, I’m Asey Mayo and I’m a recovering Buckeye.
(sitting down)
Pssst, Uke - is Harvey Pekar still around? How come he hasn’t shown up on the Drew Carey Show? And where is Drew getting those Ghoulardi T-shirts?
Me, too. Columbus.
Me too…just moved away about 6 months ago. I’m in Virginia now…but still go back for visits to family often. Maybe I could make a Dopers meeting there…
Asey, Harvey did a book five years ago called MY CANCER YEAR, about getting through cancer with the help of his wife, Joyce. Four Walls Eight Windows pubbed it; it’s atill available on Amazon.
I used to buy AMERICAN SPLENDOR religiously every year when it came out…issue #1 is the only underground comic in my extensive collection I’ve bothered to put into a plastic bag.
I kinda gave up on it seven or eight years ago. After Harvey started doing all that Letterman stuff I lost interest.
Drew Carey has GHOULARDI T-SHIRTS??? I want one I want one IwantoneIwantoneIwantoneIWANTONE!!!

Cleveland here.
Well, right now I reside in South Euclid, OH but Cleveland is where I was born, raised (except for a 5-year stint in Iran), and schooled.

I’m from and living in Ohio.

I live in lovely West Chester, Ohio, a suburb northeast of Cincinnati, home to the world-infamous Bengals, Skyline Chili, and birthplace of Doris Day.
I know, I know, you’re in awe.
Chagrin Falls… East of Cleveland. Born in Akron.
Satan is supposed to be passing through here in December. Anybody know where he’s going to be ??
Maybe you could put me down for 1/2. I was born in Ohio, and currently work in Ohio, although I live across the river in Kentucky. Your call.
There once was a cowgod from Toledo
Who had the most amazing libido
Now in Cincinnati
The girls call him daddy
He’ll never leave his home of Ohio!

Doctordec, he’s gonna be at my house. Maybe we should have a Cleveland area get-together? Drain Bead is coming up from Columbus, and it could include me, orangecakes, MrScott, you . . . who else?
