I'm not that far from Three Mile Island. Some of the people look kind of like this cat;

I am from Boston and we talk fast, eat fast and work fast, move fast, etc etc. Been told that many times from people from non major cities across the US. Of course NY is very much like this as well so not sure it is Mass specific but still unique nontheless and it it all I thought of.

In Oklahoma we wager on sports on the internet and make shit up on posting forums. Good Luck

This is true of Oklahoma. They also "suck."

-Don't forget that ya'll worship OU.

In Texas, the rest of the country thinks that you still ride horses and have cows and armadillos on every corner. This is probably true outside of all cities with under 20000 peeps.

-"Ya'll" is a trademark of everyday conversation.
-Things are definately way slower-paced compared to the west coast and northeast, outside of the interstates-having the 3rd ranked (Dallas) road rage national ranking.

-Hunting is a staple here. Deer/Dove/Duck are the best.
-Barbeque here is the best.
-Red draws (tomato juice, beer, salt/pepper and worchestire) originated here.

-I have been all around da world and the girls here are the best. (Also: Girls within the 500 mile circumference of the Boston make me want to puke)

-We all have huge dicks and bang tons of chicks. (None related to us as that is to the state northeast).

-I'm guessing it probably takes about 2 weeks to drive through this state-which would piss me off.

and we are full of 10 thousand dollar millionaires!!
-Hence-we LOVE WAL MART

Louisiana has parishes instead of counties, because of our Continental heritage.

Baton Rouge has the tallest state capital in the United States. The building is 450 feet tall and 34 stories.

The Catahoula Leopard Dog is the only breed of dog native to Louisiana and became our official state dog in 1979.

Noteable Louisiana celebrities:

Aaron Neville
Ali Landry
Britney Spears
Bryant Gumbel
Emeril Lagasse
Ellen DeGeneres
Fats Domino
Hank Williams, Jr.
Harry Connick, Jr.
Huey P. Long
Jimmy Swaggart
John Goodman

Peyton Manning
Shoeless Joe Jackson
Tennessee Williams

Illinois-- is almost 3 states in one. You got the north with chicago and they are so different than us down here in the midwest. They have that weird accent too. It's a different world there and only 2 and half hours away from here. Then central Illinios (where I am from)...typical Midwestern. And then Southern Illinois which is straight up "the south"... It's a weird state.

Here in Oreeegawn, we have some mountains and one high one. While these mountains appear nice and friendly, they can cause a lot of grief. If you ever wonder into them mountains, take some emergency stuff in case you get lost. Whiskey and ganja are a good start. Oreegawn has plenty of both. They could be real lifesavers or at least help you pass the time while tens and possibly hundreds of rescuers meander around looking for your lost soul.

Oreegawn also has propensity to raise and foster anti-capitalists of all sorts. Most are harmless and friendly. But some are downright mean, ugly and rude. In my area, there are a lot of those vegan types. They can't be rude or mean cuz any meat eater could toss them into a wall. The worst are the anit-fur zealots. They recently harrassed a local business and his customers for so long, that the business was forced to move out of the city and into the burbs. The police and city didn't seem to mind losing a successful business that has been downtown for 80 years.

One more quick stat. There's a section of NW Portland that has the highest residential density outside of San Francisco. Great place to avoid.

Okay, that's enuf already.

I don't live there now but I was born and raised in South Dakota. I'm probably the only person you'll ever know from there.

Speaking of hunting, South Dakota is the pheasant hunting capital of the world. It also used to be the largest gold producing state until the largest gold mine (Homestake) was shut down.

Not much else worthwhile about the state unless you count the Old West attractions of Deadwood.
