3. Yeah, I saw that and was particularly amused...
by the one for Texas.

Not for the entire population. Just for one person I know who had to move up here from Lubbock when her husband got transferred to Westover AFB last Sept.

Since then she has done NOTHING but bitch and complain about this place.

Nothing is any good. Everything sucks. She hates the cold. She despises the snow.


So the other day they went to VA for some additional training or whatever for him and made a small vacation of it.

She texted to Facebook yesterday that they are on their way back to "assachusetts"


rude. so rude.

Do NOT move to someone else's state and then diss it unmercifully.

So anyway, she said she LOVED Virginia. I suppose she'd like to move there. I think it's a great idea. They often get just as much snow as we get here in NE. She's a moron because she doesn't know that.

:7

6. I moved from San Francisco to Los Angeles a few months ago.
While I definitely think that SF is the better city, it's just something that you just have to get over. I can't spend my whole life being negative about a situation that I chose.

11. How do you know the toothbrush was invented in South Carolina?
Anywhere else, it would have been called a teethbrush.

12. So, is this book published by the Huff-Post's new corporate owners?
There's money to be made in pretending to be socially conscious.

13. It's only funny when the stereotypes are true
The Iowa one was just stupid. People don't "drawl" in Nebraska, and who the hell wears overalls? I could go on, but let's just say this is 2 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

16. Thats true
People in the states surrounding Indiana see it as the place you drive through to get to other places lol. Also even here in Illinois we make jokes all the time about corrupt politicians, although I believe that New Jersey has more politicians in prison right now then any other state.

20. Hahaha. I wonder what the travel budget would have been if they did this properly.
Man it would have been to go to all 50 states to do this project.

21. I don't even *get* the Pennsylvania one
And I live there.

Do Pennsylvanians have a reputation for being overly aggressive?

Most of his "stereotypes" don't make the slightest sense.
