Ohioans might need a lesson in manners

Featured Replies

CINCINNATI - Ohioans might need a lesson in manners -- at least when it comes to curse words and saying "thank you."

 

According to the mobile advertising research firm Marchex , Ohioans curse the most in the country. Washingtonians apparently curse the least.

 

It doesn’t get much better after that for the Buckeye State. That same research also puts Ohio in the Top 5 “Least Courteous” category.

 

Marchex claims that Ohioans have trouble saying “please” and “thank you.”

Is this your experience with Ohioans?

When ever you let an Ohioan merge in front of your vehicle, you very seldom get that little "thank you" wave. However, you will get it the majority of time with Kentuckians. :wave:

Working in northern Cincy most of my coworkers are Ohioans, they cuss every 5th word or so, lol. Also 3 of them have totaled cars this year, one lady this is her third car in the 9 months Ive been working here.

Is this your experience with Ohioans?

Not in their natural Habitat, Ohio. When I lived in central Ohio everyone was great.

 

Get them out of their natural habitat, for example around Lake Cumberland in southern Kentucky and they turn into some of the rudest and most pretentious people you could ever meet. Manners are out the door for the vast majority when they go on vacation in this area. There is a huge difference in the way our visitors from say, Southwest Ohio and Central Indiana act while in our local stores and restaurants. I'm not saying everyone is like that has there are some great people that come to the lake each year from Ohio. But if you run into someone that is over the top rude down here on vacation, check out their plates and in most cases they are getting into a car or boat with Ohio registration.

 

There didn't get the nickname "BFO" around here for no reason.

I always heard them referred to at Lake Cumberland as the Ohio Navy.

Politely, yes the Ohio Navy, when they act like jerks BFO's

I live here and yes it is.

 

Very few of us can even fake knowing how to act in public.

So when did you move to Ohio?

The Top 5 “Least Courteous” states were: Wisconsin (1st place), Massachusetts (2nd place), Indiana (3rd place), Tennessee (4th place), and Ohio (5th place).

 

The Ohio river valley, excluding Kentucky doesn't look to friendly.

I would disagree about the Ohio River valley as a whole. You can keep the area along our northern-most three counties, though, because I've found there's a lot of that Ohio rudeness that has slipped across the river from Cincy.

 

To be honest, though, I'm indifferent as to their level of personability. I'd settle for them learning how to drive correctly.

Shut up Jim who the heck asked you......:D

NKY is definitely much more similar to Ohio than the rest of the state of Kentucky IMO.

Too much of that mixin going on for my liking. We need to send them buckeyes back up north where they come from. In other news I just started dating a girl that lives in Dayton.:ohbrother:
