apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I guess those of us in the middle just don't count :-(

@ amazonikon, we are apparently the 'no coasters' :p

These are pretty funny! I guess you can't be offended about the lack of a Midwest option, because that wouldn't work as a pun.

On a micro, Midwestern scale, there is the set of Ohio River coasters [the river dividing Ohio and Kentucky] and the set of Vine Street coasters [the dividing line between the so-called East Side and West Side].

I love love coasters that DO something more than just protect furniture. They're a perfect excuse for a touch of color, whimsy, or message -- it's like an installation piece on your coffee table!

Hello -- Gulf Coaster??

there is almost something strangely naughty about these images.

Maybe midwesterners ar UN coasters?

yeah, there needs to be a "no coaster"

Jackson: WORD!!

Last time I checked, the US was bounded by three coasts...

C'mon Midwesterners (at least those near the Great Lakes: North Coaster!

North Coast was a nickname for Cleveland when I was growing up. Now I live in Hawaii, which is surrounded by ocean. Am I an Infinity Coaster?

Sorry but having traveled to 38 of the continental and outer US states these are just a mere piccolo pete in the firework display of pop culture.

I'd rather see a set of coasters that have sentiments along the line of "Ive been to Heads and it was rad." or "My t*ts were in 2 of the 4 corners."

the entire country just has too much amazingness to limit it to the two coasts.

I love these!

(Although if I wanted to be as picky as some of the comments so far, I could point out that the East Coaster doesn't include all of New England)

@Emika: and the irony in that is that they're made in Maine!

Seriously, though, I love these. I recently moved from LA to NH/MA/VT (yeah, we've been all over the place recently) to be with the bf, who's a born-and-bred New Englander. These would be perfect for us!

(Except for the part where he hates using coasters. I say: tough!)

I have heard the Mississippi River referred to as the Third Coast - that would work on a coaster!

I think it's funny that so many people assumed those of us not on the west/east coast are automatically from the Midwest. I live in Idaho. Why does everyone always forget about The West? You know, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Utah, Nevada...where all those old western movies took place?
:-)

Cute. (Yay east coast!!)
But I can't ever pay 40 bucks for 4 coasters. EVER.
