Florida? Alabama?
Ohio.
Ohio is now even Gen Z/A slang for roughly 'cringeworthy, awkward, weird, bad'.

It is literally a meme how shitty Ohio is.
My favorite, older example of this:
Back in the 90s, early 00s... Ohio was far and away the state that the most US Astronauts came from, of those who made it to space.
Why?
Because Ohio sucks so much, it makes you want to literally leave Earth.
Hey, oh, way to go Ohio...
(It will never stop being one of the most ironic things that has ever happened, in my mind, that Rush Limbaugh used this as his intro music for like 3 decades... basically everything lamented by this song was dramatically accelerated and worsened by basically everything he ever said or did, everyone he supported.)
It's "where did you go Ohio?".
No, it isn't.
Maybe they're just pretending to be a fan of the song =P
Devil take the Hynde-most.
