I wonder how many Michiganders saw this and thought "Oh. I've been there."

Because I did.

I've been to Hell one time. All it is, is an ice cream shop and a store selling way overpriced t-shirts that say shit about going to Hell and back.

And the road that's long, twisty, and never has cops on it. I may or may not drive upwards of 90mph on that road frequently during the summer.

Just watch out for the motorcyclists in between the bar and road to the campground.

Same here, the only place on earth where hell freezes over on a regular basis.

Edit: autocorrect...

[–]Arve 6 points7 points ago

Hell, Norway also freezes over on a regular basis.

You'd think they would have renamed the process "autoINcorrect" by now...

It renamed my ex 'condo' once

[–]MadeSenseAtTheTime 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

When your ex sits around the condo she really sits around the condo.

I'm sorry, that really was in poor taste and not even very well executed. But in my defense I was recently accused of being Keanu Reeves, so... I think maybe I'm still lashing out blindly.

Part-time Livonian here. First thought was "shit, is there a spring snowstorm coming?"

[–]kalinecorner 1 point2 points ago

Wow, you're not even that far from Hell. You should take a road trip out there sometime. It's a beautiful drive out there.

I've taken girls out there on dates just for the novelty of it. Even if the dates end badly at least they'll remember me as "The guy that took me to Hell"

I am a Hell native. Don't ever go there. It's a fucking tourist trap. I worked as a teenager through high school at the only restaurant there, and omfg idiots. Every weekend, dozens of them.

[–]kalinecorner 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Haha, I never understood why that area doesn't attract more business. I understand there's not much room there, but it is fun to go out there in October just for the novelty factor.

I just have to ask; how do you know it's Michigan? xD

[–]Mowley 40 points41 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Because of the infamous Hell, Michigan. Also, it's always fucking freezing here.

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points ago

Norway also has a Hell and we are also rather cold.

[–]zombozo 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Well...in norse mythology and scandinavian folklore Hell is a frozen place, so I think this is a nice touch ;).

*Helvete

[–]zombozo 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Helvete ? I though Helheim was the "Hell" of norse mythology, a frozen place ruled by Hel, Loki's daughter. Is Helvete the translation of the word "Hell" ? Cause i didn't mean that.

[–]Dottn 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Helheim is from the Norse mythology, yes. Helvete is the christian/modern day hell.

And as Willowmound as helpfully added in Norwegian, he checked the dictionary, and the word Helvete apparently originates from Helviti, which means the punishment of (by?) Hel.

Sjekka akkurat google, begge kan brukes.(trur eg)

Har skrevet det sånn hele livet, aldri fådt noen kommentar på det.

[–]Willowmound 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Prøv ordboka istedenfor google. Det er nok ikke akseptert skrivemåte. Etymologien bak ordet er helviti, "Hels straff". Den enkle T-en i viti gir enkel T også i det moderne ordet.

[–]Kjell_Aronsen 6 points7 points ago

It's not Norway; Norwegian place name signs are blue with white lettering.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That sign is not from Norway, but Hell is often frozen.

[–]Kjell_Aronsen 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

What do you mean that's not from Norway? That sign could be eating a state-subsidized herring, and it still wouldn't be more Norwegian.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

What ? I mean't that the picture OP posted is not Norwegian but Hell in Norway is still often frozen.

[–]Kjell_Aronsen 1 point2 points ago

Sorry, I thought you were talking about the picture I posted. Ignore.

[–]Kasey12OoO 6 points7 points ago

[–]blladnar 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

this is not some new original image that you discovered. It's been around on the Internet since the 90s. It's Hell, Michigan.

~90 degrees one day, three feet of snow the next four weeks.

[–]rachawakka 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I've always thought that Hell would be worse if it was constantly freezing, instead of being a boiling inferno. I mean, yeah, being on fire all the time sucks really bad, but what sounds even worse is to be freezing to death for all eternity, walking on jagged ice with your bare feet, falling under the ice and drowning in freezing water over and over again, being cold, wet and naked in a snowstorm for hundreds of years, unable to die or go to sleep. And then you find a house with a fireplace going, and the rest of your family is in there, happy and smiling. And you keep banging on the window and screaming for them to please let you in...but they never hear you. And then a yeti takes you to his cave and double teams you with a wompa.

That sounds more like Hell than "wailing and gnashing of teeth" in the lake of fire. To me, at least.

[–]ghgg99 8 points9 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

If you live in Michigan you just sort of know... Like a sense... Or.a very educated guess, gathered by the freezing sign and the sign color..

Probably the first one

[–]Zmbywoof 5 points6 points ago

[–]MadeSenseAtTheTime 1 point2 points ago

So you've been to Hell and back? That's a pretty awesome claim, and for it to be true makes it even better.

They made it pretty famous on 6/6/06 selling plots of land for $6.66.

[–]wisjas08 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

By "plots of land" you mean a tiny plastic box with some dirt in it. I grew up a few miles from Hell, it's a nice place.

[–]tumescentpie 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Oh I thought they were actually selling deeds to 1x1 plots.

[–]wisjas08 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Actually you're correct, I forgot about the square inch of land thing. Living there made the whole idea seem strange to me.

[–]tumescentpie 1 point2 points ago
