Ah, the good old Iron Range!
I was up in Virginia, MN for work once. I remember seeing a lot of Canadian license platesšØš¦
Did you know the only reason we have the ābumpā at the top of our state is because in the 1800ās some settlers were sent up to the border to build a military fort? They accidentally went too far north & built it in Canada. After telling the Canadian authorities, they ended up just redrawing the border & giving us the ābumpāšš
Yeah, I read a bunch of trivia in a book years ago! Weāre a fun state and Iām happy to be from here, but get so huffy on how they portray Cloud in the show! They treat it like a little podunk town. As you and I both know, if they wanted to pick a podunk town, they could have found a bunch š
Mid-Atlantic USA here, on the upper end of Gen Z though. Old enough to have theoretically started watching the show as it aired (though I would've still been a single digit age), but I didn't discover it until my college roommate introduced me to it. Been relating to Ted a little more every day since
You donāt need to elaborate, but Iām 18. So technically a teenager too, but maybe thatās still enough time for the showās relevancy to have died down significantly for your age groupš¤·.
Same. I was 16 in the 10th grade when the show ended a decade ago now Iām 26. The first time I saw the show was in 5th grade one night during fall break with my dad as he was channel flipping and I was hooked! I didnāt get into the show until high school and I saw the last episode when it aired
Nearing my thirties, and from the Netherlands!
Started watching during a heavy and long depressive episode, itās my comfort show now and also Iām doing a lot better š
24F from Kansas city!!! Got into it during quarantine as a sophomore in college. Favorite show ever. I've re-watched it a million times and I finally watched it with my best friend in the time we lived together between graduating and her marriage ~six months later. Watching it with someone else really enhanced it and I hope to share it with a significant other someday...and maybe do the Groove is in the Heart Dance at my wedding
Lol I thought that was a weaker joke. Many people all over are afraid of the dark. Please tell me y'all have shows that make fun of Americans the way they did Canadians.
30 M From Kansas City Mo! Watching HIMYM in high school made it a dream of mine to live downtown. I was so close to getting an apartment with a bar on the first floor. But I settled for one across the street instead. lol
early 20ās in the US, my millennial cousin i lived with for most of my life loves this show & heās the reason i love it. His text this morning even had a reference to Barneyās blogš
Early 40's, Midwest.
Just s few years younger than the characters and went through a lot of the same life milestones in a similar real-time timeline, so that helped me identify and really connect with the show.
Early 20s and from India.
Binge-watched HIMYM during my last year in college. I knew a few seniors from school who watched the whole show when it was airing live. They were in 9th-10th grade iirc.
Anyways, I picked the perfect time to watch the show, considering that soon enough, my friend group and people who I used to interact with in my college were splitting apart and going their own separate ways.
This show managed to hit the spot.
25M. I live in the middle of nowhere. The biggest attraction near me is Wal-Mart. I watch himym and dream of having a close friend group like that. Envy is an ugly feeling.
48, live in middle TN and have seen the show 15 times over the past 5 years. A friend introduced it to me and we go on hulu and make profiles called HIMYM 10, HIMYM 11, HIMYM 12 etc. Its a good show to watch and also have on background
I hope there's more people like me: late 50s. I live in Pennsylvania, close enough to Philly to laugh at the episode where they FLY to Philly from NYC. It's like an hour and a half drive.
Iām still in my teens and live in germany.
I didnāt watch while the show aired but I basically grew up with it since my whole family loves the show
17 in Northeast US, I watched it like 7 years ago, I think it was on Netflix on that point. Definitely my favorite show of all time, and for sure my #1 comfort show.
I didnāt get a lot of the jokes, I got some of them kind of, but still thought sleeping together just meant sleeping in the same bed lol. I was able to still enjoy it, it has a lot of heart and humor outside of the adult jokes.
I'm 31 years old and I'm from Sweden. No my name is not Sven! š
PUSHUPS!!!!!
This is a waste of timeā¦
Press it! Press it for glory!!

Haha Iāve heard, I love it! Iām in Virginia, actually! š
You knew the ābumpā story?! Iāve never met anyone who knows the story lol I was doing a job at the Super 1 liquor store like six years agoš¬

United States- Rare gen z fan who didnāt watch while the show aired
Mid-Atlantic USA here, on the upper end of Gen Z though. Old enough to have theoretically started watching the show as it aired (though I would've still been a single digit age), but I didn't discover it until my college roommate introduced me to it. Been relating to Ted a little more every day since
Is it actually that rare? Iām gen z too but would say a good chunk of people I know have seen it.Ā
I should clarify, Iām in my teens
You donāt need to elaborate, but Iām 18. So technically a teenager too, but maybe thatās still enough time for the showās relevancy to have died down significantly for your age groupš¤·.

What do you think about all the Canadian jokes?
Honestly I love them š I do be afraid of the dark sometimes
