Pretty Much Over The Top In Suck

NichV,
One of the longest stretches of road I ever drove was north the length of Delaware. As best I recall, it was nothing but u-store it facilities and gas stations. I was never so happy to see NJ in my life.

B,
For some reason this: "Soda? We say pop here, fucko" made me larf like I haven't larfed in days.

I did a report on Ohio in school (I think it was primary school). I picked Ohio because I liked the name. I don't remember a whole lot about the report. All that pops into my mind is sand, a covered wagon, and a tumbleweed. Maybe that was a Bugs Bunny cartoon and I'm mixed up.

Never been there... closest I've been is probably Montana. I'm kind of curious to see what it's really like, with such a reputation for mediocrity. Mediocrity is more fascinating than sheer badness, for me. Not sure why. That reminds me of somewhere I HAVE been - Delaware. The only place I've ever been in Delaware was a factory seconds clothes store.
