Insult your state, or a different one. I'll start:

Connecticut is the New Jersey of New England.

What I mean by that is that most people think of Connecticut not as a real place, but just somewhere you have to drive across to get from one place to another, in this case from New York City to Boston.

(Just as New Jersey is considered to be just a place you have to drive through to get from Philadelphia to New York City.)

Homer Simpson said it best: "Florida? But that's America's wang!"

Seriously. It is. And I'm not just talking about the shape and position of it. It's America's very unwashed genitalia. It's dank and humid and there's weird stuff growing everywhere. It smells funny most of the time. Lots of little bugs clinging to every bush. And every now and then Mother Nature comes through and gives it a helluva blowjob.

Glad for you that you got out while you still could.

the cockroaches that were so big that the wounded ones could take down a small marsupial, the hurricanes, the fact that the place I lived in was nothing but a mess of ridiculous urban sprawl with no public transit to speak of and the cost of living didn't match the minimum wage in the slightest, not to mention that if you didn't have a car you were FUCKED and couldn't get a job in the first place unless you got lucky and there was a convenience store withing walking distance that was hiring... and I mean walking distance, it's not safe to bike there. Hell, not safe to walk. We had some of the highest pedestrian fatality rates in the country.

Oh, and generally the people there suck too. I'm fairly certain that the high pedestrian fatality rates were mostly because people were just assholes and didn't give a shit about whether anyone else was there or not when they were driving.

I'd have to think seriously about the second option. Same with Los Angeles.

Of course, with my luck, I got here just in time for a helluva heat wave. :P And I didn't realize until AFTER I moved that this place didn't have AC. D'oh.

J/K. I *will* talk to you sometime soon. :D I'm just answering you in another thread. I know tonight's not good, but I miss you, cousin. I have your number & it's written in the cover of my favorite Richard Bachman book.

:loveya:

But we should.

what with Disneyland and all that, but isn't Placer County just a bunch of ghost towns?

What am I missing, or not getting, here?

That's who kept re-electing that d-bag John Doolittle, and they haven't voted Dem for president in my lifetime.

Also, it's filled with SUV driving cougars with fake and bake tans who are too busy talking on the phone to stay in their lane. Which is reason enough to call in an airstrike. :D

(This is not my original, like the OP was, and it's old, but what the hell)

Q: Why is California like granola?

A: Because when you take out all the fruits and nuts, all you have left is a bunch of flakes.

Yeah, Politically Incorrect. But offered in the spirit of having a little fun.

Redstone

we're shaped like a fucking smoking gun. Compensating much?



On edit: One of are major cities is called "Hancock."

A. Because Iowa sucks.

No offense to Iowans, I just like the joke..

An empty Greyhound. (a popular joke here in Ohio)
