Urban Dictionary, an online contribution site that allows visitors to define people, places, and things (with no moderators that we can find) attempted to define our fine city.

The definitions are ranked on the site by how many people vote each one up or down.

The thread begins like this:

The biggest city in South Dakota. It's also noted as the best, most civilized city. The People here are no more redneck or stupid than any other place. It may be boring with only the Empire Mall, Coconut Joe's, and Borrowed Buck's Road House to hang out at, but hey, at least it's not Iowa."

Okaaaay. That was nice, sort of. Well, not so much for our neighbors, the Iowans. Here's another:

A very civilized, advanced city in South Dakota. The city has a population of about 165,000 with a metro area of almost 275,000. It is much larger and nicer than Fargo, ND guaranteed. There is plenty to do and is a very pretty place. A great place to raise children and grow old in. SF also has the one of the highest amounts of doctors, lawyers, and bankers per capita in the country."

Then thing take a turn for the worse. Let's hope this contributor moved away by now.

The worst place in the country to live in; aside from anywhere in Iowa, North Dakota, Montana, Minnesota, Canada, Nebraska, Wyoming, or Idaho. Known for corn, but not so much as Nebraska. Known for potatoes, but not so much as Idaho. Synonyms include: the land of rolling flatness, the land of bored shitless, one mall, shitty schools, expensive private schools, holy [&*$#] its cold, no middle class, and pillaging."

Boring? Known for potatoes? Pillaging??? Seriously, move to Canada already. Add some nice things to say about our great city, or add them to the comments below.
