I have had a cold for the last month here. It's the stupid weather. It's cold, then it's hot, then it's cold. 3 to 4 days a week it rains...

Thank you so much for the lack of warning. For that, I am holding you responsible for my cold.

Don't worry, you'll get used to it. Just wait till the summer when it's so hot, and humid you can taste the air.

No problem, good AC in the house here. I am looking forward to May, too hot to go outside, sitting watching the playoffs in the AC on the bigscreen.
 
Reading the whole article, it gets even more amusing:

24. Mississippi: highest rate of obesity (35.3 percent of total population)

BONUS facts: Mississippi ranks last in the most number of categories. These include highest rate of child poverty (31.9 percent), highest rate of infant mortality (10.3 percent) lowest median household income ($35,078), highest teen birth rate (71.9 per 1,000 women aged 15 to 19) and highest overall rate of STDs.

Well. at least my graduation class was the non normality of Texas education system thanks to the Righteous god fearing right.

Lets see. No alcohol, no caffeine, no cigarettes, practically no fun. People are going to resort to some sort of vice.

I lived there for 10 years. Whenever you tell people not to have sex, there's going to be porn.

Worst overreaction to what is intended to be a fun thing ever! I chuckled at the map, I laughed out loud, and loudly at this reaction to it.

Appreciating humor requires the existence of a humor detecting device.
 
Also, I can't believe that Florida only got dinged for identity theft when we have so many lunatics and old people running around all the time. I feel we got off with only a mild rebuke.

They smell funny, drive slow, and clog up restaurants at 4 p.m. I'll tell you what...we'll work out an arrangement to ship them to your state, and see how much you enjoy them.
 
I'm having a hard time believing the labels that were applied. Some of them are arbitrary like "ugliest residents." I also have a hard time believing that Tennessee is the most corrupt state.

I can see it, I just don't know if it's the most corrupt. However, many county governments and small towns are riddled with corruption.

Try being a Mets fan, Fred Wilpon has more or less destroyed a once proud franchise.

Transportation is only a problem in NYC not much of a problem in my area, however to be serious for a a minute taxes are our biggest problem in NY.
 
Montana got drunk driving and it doesn't surprise me at all.

I like how Washington got bestiality. Though, I suppose it's better to suck at bestiality than to be really good at it, so Washington should at least take pride in that.

I was kind of sad that South Carolina didn't get bestiality. Seems like every year there are a few stories about a guy having sex with his horse.
