    State pride is stupid, unless of course you live in Maryland in which case it is absoluely justified.

          You don't think anything is worth taking pride in, so this is little surprise.

            If someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles to frown, but it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and whack them in the head.

                    Actually, only half of Maryland is stereotypically rednecky, thank you very much. It's called the eastern shore. I'm on the western portion. And even the eastern shore is cleaner than NYC.

                      Not an american myself but I have lived long enough in the States to understand the idea. It's a definately yes for me. The times where the States were of significance has passed.

                        I couldn't agree more! (I'm in Ontario.)

                        Why would anyone think pride is stupid?

                        Pride is something that drives us to do better, to have goals, and to accomplish something notable.

                        Humans are communal creatures, so we naturally have pride at the different community levels as well - that is only natural, and admirable, I believe.
