Definder - what does the word mean?

What is Missouri?

This state is quite beautiful and rich in its scenery. It is covered in oak and cedar trees and has many small bodies of water that you look into and see nothing but the color brown… and maybe the occasional tadpole or naked hillbilly. The human population of Missouri ranges widely in character, all the way from the busy, healthily socialized city-folk to the confused country citizens, who can’t quite decide on their morals and fall somewhere within the category of city-dipped redneck that smokes weed while reading the Bible and wears camouflage shirts with skinny jeans and hand-me-down tennis shoes. If you are an out-of-towner and are passing through, expect to see at least three churches per quarter-mile and potentially a revival going on in the courthouse parking lot. The older Missouri citizens are focused solely on Jesus, the teenagers are way into guns and trucks and losing their virginity between the ages of 13 and 16, and the children like to go hunting with their daddies mount pictures of bloody deer carcasses all over their houses. They could easily be mistaken for their own species of wildlife, in the sense that out-of-town hunters might shoot them because they're so annoying and then tell the authorities, "Woops I thought he was a deer... I mean look at the amount of back hair on him. You would have made the same mistake." And the authorities would believe him. Missouri people are either conservative Christians or sluts on meth. There is NO in between.

Small child: "Mom, how come there is no racial diversity here and why do people ask me what church I go to before they even ask me my name?"

"Mother: "Why Jimmy, we're in Missouri!"

Missouri - what is it?

A friendly conservative state that welcomes everyone. After hearing some of the bad things people have said about Missouri I must say. Oregon by far has way more trailers and trailer parks. You dont see as many in Missouri because everyone knows that you cant live in a trailer where there are tornados.

I have lived here for only 5 years and I must say...people here are far more civilized than on the west coast (where I grew up)...in Oregon, Washington, California. Missouri is where you go when you want your family to feel safe and have good moral values. We actually know what "America the land of the free" means because we get to experience it daily. No cops hiding behind bushes to pull you over for going one mile over the speed limit. Yes, out here we only get warnings...and thats if your going 10 miles over the speed limit or more. I would never live on the west coast again if only for the fact that the cops are not NATZI's out here in Missouri like they are out west.

Although I am not originally from Missouri, I am proud to call it my "home" state.

What does "Missouri" mean?

A hot and humid hell hole that has so many riots that owning a gun isn't a Right, it is a necessity. The name of the state reflects the emotions you will feel while living here, misery.

Please end my Missouri

Missouri - what does it mean?

A state typically mistaken to be full of rednecks and incest. Actually, since I live there, I know that is wrong. Missouri is not full of idiots who marry their cousins. So all of the idiots that have posted negative things, need to rethink that and quit believing stereotypes. :)

I went to visit Missouri and found that it is a very pleasant place to live. The stereotypical idea of the state is completely wrong.

Missouri - meaning

Okay. I've lived in Missouri my whole life. This state is very very beautiful there are no oceans YOU'RE RIGHT. But if you drive down one of the several gravel roads and view all the scenery that is BEAUTIFUL you might be able to see one of the THOUSANDS of fresh water rivers! There are no inbred people here! Yes, there are trailors as there are trailors in EVERYSTATE! Rednecks yes we have a few, get over it they're everywhere. Our people are wonderful and they know how to live life wonderfully and enjoy it without having their noses stuck up! In states like California, and Florida people snub you. In Missouri we wave and smile everywhere :). We may be down home or live in small towns, but we are all friends and we have a great time! And all our children go to nice schools and are very educated. Missouri is not Misery! So please before you bash on some nice Midwestern people! You might just drive through and see what it's all about. Because ignorance can be so overwhelming! :P

We are proud to be from Missouri! It's the most beautiful state full of wonderful people! Come see us!

Missouri - definition

A place people make out to be worse than it is. Where dumb asses believe we are all inbred (ever heard of Arkansas?). Home to the Chiefs, Royals, Cardinals, and Blues. We may not have a beach but we have more shoreline than California. We are the meth capital of the United States, but that dosent mean wall of use do it. Misery? Really? Try driving 5 miles into Kansas and you will kill yourself.

Missouri - slang

The Show-Me State. A state that doesn’t know if it’s Southern or Midwestern. Its 6 million residents are divided in geography, accent and culture. Northern Missouri is flat and similar to the rest of the Midwest while southern Missouri is hilly and in the Ozark region. Ironically, America’s new unofficial country music capital is Branson, near the Arkansas border. People from northern Missouri are considered more Midwestern while Southern Missouri is more Southern. Missouri is the place where North America’s two great rivers meet: The Mississippi and Missouri, near Saint Louis. Kansas City is the largest city but St. Louis is the largest metro area. Ironically both metro areas cross state boundaries. Kansas City is known as a great center of jazz music and barbeque while St. Louis is a major center for the production of beer (Anheiser Bush) and has the Gateway Arch. What’s ironic is that beer and barbeque go together like sex and nicotine. However, both cities are extremely crime-ridden by many comparisons. Some natives include Jessie James, Harry Truman, Walt Disney and Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain).

Missouri is a nice, quaint state but has somewhat of an identity crisis.

Missouri

The Show-Me State. The northern half of the state tends to be flat and fits in culturally with the Midwest. Northern Missourians say "Miz-zur-ree". The southern half of the state is defined by the Ozark Mountains and tends to identify with the South, rather than the Midwest. Southern Missourians say "Mizz-zur-rah" keeping in tradition with the original French pronunciation of the Indian word that was used as the basis for the state's name. Southern Missourians in the Ozarks tend to speak iwith an accent similiar to Tennessee.

Home to President Harry S. Truman, Walt Disney, and famed Generals John "Black Jack" Pershing and Omar Bradley.

Abe: "I can run faster than that black bear coming towards us."

Paul: "Oh yeah? I'm from Missouri - show me."
