Little Known M*ch*g*n Facts

Loathing All Things Georgia
Did you know that Minnesota successfully filed an injunction to keep the State of Michigan from ripping off its state motto????

Way back in 1837 Michigan was admitted as a state. Minnesota was admitted in 1857, and had the great idea to think up a "State Motto".

Michigan noticed, and its state legislature soon passed a state motto that was a poorly disguised copy of Minnesota's motto. This resulted in legal action - a successful injunction by Minnesota - being filed in 1859.

Which is why Michigan no longer calls itself "The Land of 10,000 Assholes".

The Spanish founded St Augustine in 1565 and were actually the original owners of that motto. In Spanish it's pronounced "Florida".

[strike]Which is why you were unable to resist St. Augustine's Siren call..? :lol: [/strike]


"[censored] Michigan" is the third most popularly voiced phrase in the State of Flordia, right behind "No entiendo Ingles", and the number one "That's not how we did things up North!"

Oh, so you got the UP. Yeah, great consolation prize douchebags. Go recruit a football player from that frozen wasteland assholes! You LOSE skunkweasels!!! And now that you have the nerve to step foot in this state again, since you were too dumb to learn the first time, we're gonna kick your asses again...But I think we'll just let ya keep Detroit.
