If you hail from Massachusetts, you may consider yourself a few things. A Bay Stater. A Bostonian, perhaps. Maybe even a Masshole.
My fellow Massholes, we’ve finally arrived. The Oxford English Dictionary, the authoritative book on the English language, has included “Masshole” in its list of 500 new words to be officially added to its pages.
“I know some people question the use of our words,” says Kelly Fredrickson, president of MullenLowe Boston. “But I’m from here and I’m a proud Masshole. I’ve been raised in a state that protects all our liberties and I want those to exist for my kids.”
In a tweet on Sunday, Jennings offered his take on the word, which is sometimes used as an insult, but just as often worn as a badge of honor.…But ours is not a state that historically listens to dictums from the British, and “term of contempt” or not, locals seem to have adopted “Masshole” as a descriptor.
Running a state is hard at the best of times and these are worse times than most Mass residents have ever experienced.…We're all just one big happy Masshole family, right?
There are the North and South shores, which to an untrained eye look alike but to a Masshole are completely different planets.

Massachusetts is the smartest state in the U.S. Massachusetts has the highest percentage of Bachelor’s degree holders at 42.1% of adults and graduate or professional degree holders at about 32.4%. Additionally, Massachusetts is home to MIT, Harvard, and several other high-ranked institutions.
