Moving from Michigan to Ohio may not seem like that big of a deal, especially because of the close proximity, but there are many subtle differences. Even though they states are so near each other, they are not so similar. Each state believes itself to be superior and neither will admit that they're not. As a result Michiganders will always be slightly out of place in the state of Ohio.

1. Ohio State v. U of M Rivalry

"Oh you're from Michigan? So you're a Michigan fan?" Everyone in Ohio gives you crap for liking Michigan, and gives you dirty looks when you wear a University of Michigan sweatshirt. You don't even want to think about the week leading up to the OSU v. U of M game.

2. Having to settle for Giant Eagle instead of Meijer

People in Ohio don't even know how to pronounce Meijer, much less understand what the Giant Eagle is lacking.

3. Disappointing NFL teams all around

What team is worse than the Lions? The Browns. Either team you root for, they'll more than likely lose.

4. Seeing cars made by someone other than the Big 3

General Motors, Chrysler and Ford are by far and away the most popular cars on the road in Michigan, and its strange to see others.

5. Realizing Ohio has basically the same weather

Michigan and Ohio are both in the Midwest, so they have similar weather. Try as you might, moving to Ohio doesn't let you escape the really hot summers and lake-effect snow winters.

5. People don't understand how close Canada really is

Ohioans don't understand that you can literally drive to Canada, and that it's something people do frequently. You don't even need a passport, just an enhanced license!

6. Finding someone who knows what Up North means

Everyone in Michigan knows what you mean when you say "I'm going Up North" but people in Ohio just give you a blank stare. But when you find someone who says "I love going Up North" you have an instant bond.

7. People think Lake Erie is the best

Ohioans are obsessed with Lake Erie, but you know the truth: Lake Michigan is the prettiest, cleanest and best Great Lake there is. You will fight people on this point.

8. People make fun of you for using your hands as maps

Whenever anyone asks where you're from and you point to the corresponding place on your hand, everyone laughs at you.

9. People tell you Ohio is better than Michigan

Everyone in Ohio thinks their state is superior to Michigan. They're always hating on your home, but you know that they're wrong. You love the Mitt and you're proud of it.

10. You still hear Pure Michigan Ads

You love the Pure Michigan commercials, even though you know they're cheesy and everyone in Ohio makes fun of them. You still secretly try to guess which location they're talking about before Tim Allen reveals it.
