Regional self deprecation

Illinois - When someone asks where I’m from it’s “Illinois, but south of I-80” or “Central Illinois, out in corn country.” I don’t want people thinking I’m from the suburbs.

Colorado. We're like that guy who was really cool back in high school and then married a hot babe with rich parents in California. Her whole family came to visit and saw how awesome it was and sold their homes in Orange County and bought all the houses around yours and now they are signing petitions to ban hunting. Meanwhile your wife is getting less hot over time but spends more every year so you have to work overtime just to pay bills. You miss the glory days and want to uproot your life and move in with your buddies in Wyoming but they don't even want you to crash on their couch because they're afraid you'll bring your whole family and ruin their State too.

Damn, that was deeply accurate.

I’ve really got nothing bad to say about Idaho, everything’s awesome here except the cali transplants….

Oh come on.

Idaho. Where the only thing that blows more than the wind is our driving capabilities.

California…our governor, taxes, gas prices, etc.

Dude. You chime in for the golden state with simple facts? So much wasted opportunity. It brings a tear to my eye.

Are you kidding me dude, don’t you live in Utah? I’ve driven through salt lake… but also I live in north Idaho so it’s not really windy up here.

Welcome to Lousiana. Turn right to get shot, left to get killed by mosquitoes, continue straight to die of heat stroke. All roads lead to hurricanes.

Louisiana's weather patterns:
1 week of spring
40 weeks of summer
1 week of fall
10 weeks of 2nd summer

I think New Mexico guys are hiding so I'll drop one for them.
New Mexico, it’s like Mars… but with gas stations every 80 miles.

Half of them are abandoned/closed though

I'm from I.O.W.A. - Idiot Out Wandering Around. But at least I'm not a FIB.

Being from the good side of the river, and having in-laws from Southern IL, they've said telling people that you live in Southern IL is the worst. Everyone not from IL assumes you live in Chicago, and everyone from IL assumes you're redneck.

Illinois, where you can make a lot of money, and retire somewhere else.

If the end of the world comes, I'm staying in Wyoming because we're always 20 years behind the times.
