The most miserable states in the USA

It's curious that its a list of contiguous states also.

It is almost as though they constitute a belt of some sort, is it not?

I know you are decently happy there but you do complain about it a lot I suppose, sometimes it's fun to live in a place that you can complain about.

There's a good chance I'd complain anywhere

To libs, anything outside California, New York, Philly, northeast, or northwest, then you are a pathetic mouth-breathing loser.

To their point, the people and politicians of these exotic places of which you speak do not really do much to change that general perception.

Or a noose.

Who likes Philly?

Philly ain't so bad. Center City is nice and many of the suburbs are nice places to raise families.

I spent some time last week in Lincoln Nebraska. That's a fun little burg!

If you are there check out the Haymarket district downtown.

[mota bhai 2,675]

Checked out the website. Looks like a lot of good eating.

The Oven is an Indian restaurant run by a Bhutanese family.

The Lamb Bhuna made me want to slap my mamma.

[mota bhai 2,675]

The best Indian restaurants are run by Bangladeshis. Fact.

After this winter, I'm ready to move somewhere warm. It's finally beaten me down.

[Operator 1,927]

I'm ok with the cold for now because I've been told I'll spend an eternity burning in hell.

After this winter, I'm ready to move somewhere warm. It's finally beaten me down.

Two years ago we got no accumulating snowfall at all. None. I never had to bring out the shovel. There was no polar vortex, no cold water drip-drip-drip all night.

I hold out hope that could happen again, soon. Otherwise I will convert to Republicanism, learn to hate the gays and move to Texas.

[Penny Lane 8,159]

I don't mind cold. I can deal with the cold. I'm used to the cold. But this bone chilling below zero for endless days has just worn me out.

I think we're on pace here to at least tie a very old record of amount of days spent below zero.
