Well, Mary has a legitimate point. Lake Erie is absolutely disgusting. I mean, will you die if you step in the water? No. Will your future children have 5 arms and two heads? Quite possibly. Oh, and also? People rip on Akron all the time. You just have to deal.

Check out the part where Mary doesn’t realize that Chicago is on Lake Michigan, and then asks, about the Great Lakes, “aren’t there like three of them you’re not allowed to go in because they’re polluted?”  Um.  No.  You can pretty much drink Lake Michigan.

I’m only mentioning this because it’s not merely that she had never been to Chicago (despite my repeated invitations) but that she didn’t even want to talk about it as an amazing vacation destination in the U.S.  That pissed me off.  Don’t ever diss a girl’s hometown, you know?
