I love the fact they have Texas as almost last! Just leave us alone...

A woman from Laramie, Wyo. once told me, "Wyoming is known for its cold winters. Yes, Wyoming is cold, so don't move here."

Bad as it is, it's better than where they are coming from--Sinaloa, Oaxaca, Kwangtung Province, West Bengal, etc.

And most of the winter too! You anxiously wait for and relish that one or two weeks of spring. Call is the week of thanksgiving but it is a big zero since the leaves don’t turn. They just get tired and fall off!

Never saw a place so dry to be so damp and humid as the woods of n houston.

Don’t believe it.

Montana should be ranked dead last.

There is no reason to come here so forget about it.

Winter is 7 months long and horrible.

If you are thinking about it then please reconsider.

If you are on your way then take the next exit and turn around now.

Yep. Have no idea why Arkansas isn’t last. Cottonmouths, Copperheads, Timber Rattlers, ticks, chiggers, black widows, brown recluse, kudzu, rednecks, the Clintons, feral youts, etc

From you that’s a huge compliment.

Very sad, really. It’s like a beautiful girl hooked on meth. Such potential, yet now so ugly.

Think of Californians as George Bush’s gift to Texas. He helped the 3rd world overrun this state and Californians who have the option have been getting the hell out ever since.
