WTF Fargo?

crfische

Two days ago, it was published that we are the 3rd best place in America to raise kids. WOOHOO, go Fargo, right?Today, we are in the headlines as being ranked 15th in the nation for rate of suicide. 86 people in ND committed suicide last year. That's like...huge considering not even a million people live in the whole STATE. WTF?

Huh. Did these people at all confer with one another? Methinks probably not...

Is it really awful that I giggled a little at this post? Yeah probably.

Maybe all of those kids are making people suicidal?

crfische

Yeah, it makes no sense. Hey! Come raise your children here, it's awesome! We just can't promise they'll make it to adulthood?

Yea... can't imagine why people who live there would be unhappy:

I read that Kokomo, IN is the #1 most affordable place to live, they said because the houses are so cheap...but helloooo unemployment is like 15%!!

Oh dear, Michelle, that's what it is like here 9 months out of the year. You make a good point.

Those people probable did it because of the thought of Real from Real Chance of Love and "Fargo" spawn potentially running around the city in the near future.

probable = probably.  DUH.

That snow picture made me shiver.

vallyhoo

Funny thing is when I looked at that picture I thought it was of a hurricane. Didn't cross my mind that the roofs weren't actually white, derrr.

less people live in ND than Manitoba? That seems strange to me! It's probably the winters. They're depressing.

crfische

WAAAAAAYYY fewer. The population of the WHOLE STATE is 641,481

That's less people than the city I grew up in when we came to Canada. That's gross Fischy.

Well, no lie, that's what Michigan looks like a lot of the time also.  I like how ND is a large state with like, only enough people to make one really decent city.

Don't feel bad. MT has the number 1 suicide rate in the nation, and we suck at raising kids. haha
