I\'m sick and tired of hearing all these bad things about NJ. They call NJ the armpit of the nation for reasons unknown, are we New Yorks trash or something. Sure, driving in New Jersey can be a stress, but we have some wonderful towns, and although our state is overly populated, we are not over-run by businesses.
Well, what\'s wrong with YOUR state?
-Proud to live in New Jersey, The Garden State
At least we actually are known for something. Unlike sates like Montana and Iowa with no landmarks whatsoever.

I live in Wisconsin.

home state...Illinois..chicago more specifically. People cant drive..road rage and crime.
current location..So.FL...smack dab inbetween miami and ft. lauderdale more specifically. Too many old ppl..too many dumbasses..crime..lack of english speaking and just overall laziness. I swear, seems like no one in this state wants to do anything. must be the weather.

my state sucks, it hailed here a few weeks ago, friggin dents in my car!!! weather changes so fast to, hot to cold, cold to hot, my balls can\'t take it.
-
well here in Cali, we have a certified, retarded Governor, had a power problem, and an upcomming drought. However I still love this damn state, too bad I\'m moving outta her, in about a year.
-
Gosh, and you Yanks think your\'ve got it bad.
Try driving down an eight lane freeway surrounded by a bunch of ferrals and rednecks... I swear I don\'t know where people get the licenses...

"Look garth, were in Delaware."
There is absolutely NOTHING to do in Delaware. But at least the price of living is decent, there are good jobs, and no sales tax.
What sucks, corporations OWN YOU in delaware, thats why so many make thier headquaters here.
-
You should come here to Iceland, where people drive fast and women are easy, just show\'em your catch, a seal and a bucket of whale blubber and they\'re yours man :p
j/k

The commercials don\'t lie. There is more than corn in Indiana... we have Republicans. God damn do we have republicans. I\'m about ready to start packing them up in crates and selling to overseas countries.
Hey LUKE, you guys need any republicans up there in Wisconsin??
Delaware isn\'t the only place where corperations OWN you, Faithdies. I called down to the Indiana Labor Relations board a few weeks ago to get information on where I can look up workplace rights in my state. Know what they told me? General Rule of thumb: You have no rights. :(

I live in Ohio, thats even worse then where Luke lives.
-
My state has NYC in it. So even though there\'s really no progress here in Buffalo, I have very high state taxes. NYC should be its own state. oh yeah, our football team sucks.
Crap, so does our hockey team.
It\'s sunny and 80 degrees today...

NY, NYC
I pay 7k for my car insurance a year and I got a clean record. So you tell me rather it suck or not.:fro:

South Lanarkshire (Scotland)
errrmmm well its alright apart from the high numbers of NEDS that live here.
let me fill you in
a NED is the trouble maker element
how to spot them
- Baseball cap (facing forward at a 45 degree angle)
- They like to ware Kappa Gear (A LOT)
- On their trackie bottoms (Kappa pants) they like to roll over their white sport socks.
- Most of them have Scars
- like drinking Buckfast tonic wine (known to give you Gut rot if you drink it)
- They buy small cars like Nissan micras or Vauxhall Corsas and Mod them
- listen to Dance music very loud in their cars.
other than that is quite nice here
-
MN is full of liberals and homo\'s**. I can\'t stand either.
** I thought I should explain this before someone labels me.
I also don\'t like--
--prostitutes
--adulterers
--pedophiles
--swingers
But, all of these groups haven\'t turned into a political lobby trying to cram their "lifestyle" down our collective throats...yet. So when I say I can\'t stand homosexuals, it is for that reason. I could care less on a personal level what you do to yourself, but don\'t force me to accept.
-
Michigan.
1) The worst roads anywhere.
2) More cows than any other state per capita.
3) Detroit. Need I say more?
4) Lake effect snow.
5) A fine brew of city folk and red necks.
Hmmm, I just have to say…
I LOVE IT HERE!:D
-
I live in NJ, too. Never heard it called an armpit, though I can imagine the people doing that are from Florida. (Angry about their state being America\'s penis.)
Although that\'s cool too, since, as they say, they\'re pissing on Cuba!
What sucks about my part of town is that half of everything is at least 30 minutes away. It\'s cool though, I don\'t like to complain.
-Eik
-
you forgot the abundance of klansmen and rednecks. - luckee
Yeah, but they\'re all republicans so they all belong in the same category.
Eiksirf - Yer right.. Florida does look like a giant tallywacker. LoL, no wonder the rest of the world hates us.. that explains it all. America\'s penis is bigger than most people\'s entire country!!

Ah, Kansas...
I live in one of the larger (if not the largest) cities in Kansas, so I don\'t have to deal with farm life, dirt roads, and such.
My biggest complaint is being the buckle of the Bible Belt. We\'re a republican state (gag), yet do not have ANY concealed carry rights. Our state voted NOT to teach evolution in the schools \'cause it ain\'t Christian...ha. Of course, they still do teach evolution, and should. We have tax on everything, food, merchandise, property tax on cars. The weather is something to be seen! There are about 2 weeks out of the year when you can comfortably have the windows in your house open. It\'s either too hot or too cold. In the spring and fall, it can be 30 degrees one day and 75 the next...seriously. There are ticks here! EWW...I\'d rather be bitten by a non-venomous snake than a tick. Of course there are tornados, and plenty of them. The sirens just went off last week as a matter of fact. We have our fair share of bad drivers and trailer trash, as in any state. No beaches anywhere! No concerts except the occasional Vanilla Ice or Boy George concert at one of the clubs...no kidding.
There are a couple good things about living here. There are no inspections or emissions tests on cars...if you could consider that a good thing. Crime isn\'t toooo much of a problem, compared to larger cities...I believe the population of Wichita is 400,000 or so. We don\'t have to deal with tourists. Cost of living isn\'t too bad. I live in a 2 bedroom duplex with garage and full basement for $425 a month. So there ya have it.

Careful mate your in mixed company, because that rules out 90% of the Forum ;)

It\'s fine ooseven. I never was one to be "popular";)
-
I live in Ohio. Its not half bad, the weather is nice; not to hot, not to cold. Ohio Highschool\'s have some of the best sports programs in the country so thats sweet. Columbus\' traffic isn\'t to bad so thats another plus side. But the one BIG downside is the amount of gays here, damn German Village is infested with them.
-
Nevada....
Huge ass state... covers alot of ground... funny how only 8% is actually used. This place is a giant blanket of sand and brown mountains bordering it.
Nevada is ranked 47th in the country in education, Las Vegas is ranked among the top in air pollution, ranks first in pedestrian deaths, 5th in crime.
Cool place though. :D
-
Queen Creek, Arizona.
About 45 minutes away from Phoenix. What sucks is it\'s too hot. It never rains. Me likes rain every once and a while. Snow birds...i hate them most out of everything. Err....they should all just go to Florida. Yeah...thats about it.
-
I am in Tampa, FL. It\'s nice here probably 8 months of the year, but it does get hot and muggy in the summer.
Although we have this really cool thing down here called Air Conditioning so it doesn\'t effect you much, but it gives you something fun to complain about.
But then again it gets hotter up north and we don\'t have to deal with snow so I guess we win. It\'s never hit 100 in Tampa.
Um, you are never more than 100 miles from the beach.
Hmmm, Crime is normal. Big City=Crime.
-
We can do amazing things with corn in Iowa.:nerd:
But let\'s not forget Slipknot.:D And where I live, Omaha has a high crime rate.
-
well i like in sterling heights mi....the 6th safest city in the world....nothing really happens here.
the weather sucks
-
So Cygnus, If you hate personal groups that form lobbying groups.
Do you also hate the religious people in your state?
-
Phoenix, Arizona.
It was over 100 degrees the other day. Our low is in the 80\'s most of the time. So much crime it\'s not even funny anymore... (not that it ever was..:( ). Drought. And especially in the area I live, I\'m surrounded by A-Holes who enjoy playing Rap music at the highest volume possible, at 3:00 am. Litter everywhere, at least 4 people die everyday... I hate this place!
Whew, I feel a lot better now! We need more threads like this.:)
-
whew, I feel better now. I\'m not the only one who got their rage out.
-
I live in NY. It\'s perfect in every way.
Oh, and by the way Billy, you know the statue of liberty is partially in New Jersey?
-
Well Indiana outside of Indianapolis and Bloomington is crap. Its cold compared to what Im used to...-Miami, FL....the sports here suck except for IU, uh too many rednecks, and there is hardly anything to do.
