The States of the States

Sorry. Check out Washington DC (the diamond off the Eastern Seaboard).

[VetLegion]

Aah, there it is

[KrazyHorse]

That thing apparently measures Gross State Product, though, which is stupid, since most of the people working high-paying jobs in DC probably don't even live there (they commute from Maryland and Virginia)....

[mrmitchell]

Actually there is one, DC

The Oklahoma comment isn't too far off, but a better stereotype is either that we're all Native Americans or extremely self-righteous, Oklahoma didn't earn the nickname of being "the gaudy brass buckle of the Bible Belt" for nothing.

Texas is the best state, I'm not from Texas but everyone around her knows it.

California is all nothing but enviro nazi drug using morons (they still haven't figured out that electricity comes from power plants AND they are the only state that shut down all their hospitals and almost reverted back to territorial status because their state congress couldn't figure out how to approve a state budget. ).

Delaware residents all work for either Credit Card or Insurance companies.

New Mexico glows in the dark.

Everyone forgets Hawaii is a state.

Everyone from Georgia eats peanuts.

I'm sure I'll think of some more later............

West Virginians have no teeth.

Pennsylvanians can't drive

My theory of state stereotypes in the U.S. is that the insults generally go from northeast to southwest, i.e. New Yorkers make fun of Pennsylvanians, who joke about Marylanders, who joke about West Virginians, who joke about Kentuckians, who joke about Tenneseans, and so on...
It all ends at Mississippi, though. Mississippi is the worst of the worst.

I agree completely

I'm from Maryland... I put Latrobe in my location space because that's where I'm going to college.

[Namaste]

Maybe Floridians can't either. I wouldn't really know. I've only been to Florida a couple times.

Have you ever driven on 219? It's an experience you'll never forget.

Pennsylvanians drive like turtles. You can practically taste their fear
