Those Famed Ohio Beaches

While the rest of us were stuck in Toronto, Chase got to spend his spring break in Florida. He told me he’d met a girl there, from Ohio.
     “The funniest thing,” said Chase, “was that she’d heard of Canada, but didn’t really know where it was.”
     “You do realize Ohio’s just south of Lake Erie?”
     “I know,” said Chase. But she was pretty cute—”
     “In fact, I’d bet you can even see Canada from one of those famed Ohio beaches.”
     “—and those parties get pretty intense.”
     “Oh, Chase,” I said. “I didn’t think even you could fuck someone that stupid.”

Inspired by a much nicer story by Ron Thompson and illustrated by a postcard from Faith Fabric.

    1. Oops! No slight intended to Ohio natives in general, but this is more or less a true story, and the young lady in question was indeed from Ohio.
