Think about your average day. You wake up on your recliner (okay, your bed, but still). You crack open a can of soda with your bottle cap. You microwave a TV dinner. You use a pink eraser to fix a mistake. That’s four inventions from one flat, windy state. You’re basically living in a Nebraskan-themed house. It’s like waking up and realizing your entire life has been sponsored by a friendly midwestern uncle who just wants you to be comfortable and well-fed.
So the next time someone says Nebraska is boring, just lean back in your recliner, pop the cap off a bottle, and smile. You know the truth. The cornfields are the birthplace of your comfort. And if they don’t believe you, hand them a piece of toast with perfectly spread margarine. That’ll shut ’em up.
