I’d suggest Oregon and Vermont.
Illinois is beautiful this time of year.
Californians, please, when you get to the Rocky Mountains, please please, keep driving east for at least another 1000 miles.
PING!
Satire gone horribly real.
Stay away from Arizona. We don’t want your kind!
Haha, had me going for a couple paragraphs :-)
Truer words were never put in print.
Some states are openly hostile to travelers with California plates becaues of the social havoc they inflict on the areas where they move.
In southern Arizona, many went to Tucson and then they gave us raul grijalva.
You’ve Californicated CO enough. Stay away!
Due to the high salaries in California, its citizens routinely spend more in Federal taxes than the largesse received, this despite the amount of defense R&D work done here. Yes the State is a financial basket case, but Arnold Schwarzenegger had more to do with that than any other individual.
NOT TEXAS!You’ll hate it here little prog!
First the writer got the state motto wrong. California’s is NOT “the sunshine state”— that is Florida’s. Praying these aholes don’t go there.
Brings to mind a famous phrase: “Welcome to Florida, Now Go Home” . Other states should try this, and beware: “We don’t CARE how y’all did it up nawth”. Cause by God, we don’t, so shut up, sit down and listen......son. We do things our way, and you should learn why.
Reminds me of bedbugs.
All the stuff that is wrong with the USA and California our politicians did it, and did it to ourselves. They gave our good taxpaying jobs to Asia and thus reducing our security and self sufficiency. They allowed millions of unskilled illegals to come in and burden our Social Security, education, Medicare, etc. and add to our debt.
Traitorous politicians of both Parties have had a hand in the self destruction of the USA, and do not forget it.
The piece might be labeled as satire, but it is pretty much what I have been saying about the illegal aliens for years now. Basically that they do their best to get out of their unhappy environments and come into this country because it is ‘better’ here -and the first thing they want to do is transform their personal environments into a mirror image of what they just ran away from. That’s progress, in their minds?
I thought South Dakota was the Sunshine State. California is the Wine State or the Grape State.
Mississippi is the poorest state in the union, and as things stand would just as soon stay that way, as freedom can’t be bought.
Forgot to add-plus, our status as low man on so many totem poles keeps the riff-raff out (as we define riff-raff)
It might be satire, but is absolutely true
Nice work! Absolutely brilliant satire since it really nailed the truth about the intellectual blindness of many of the folks emigrating from California. I particularly liked this:
“It’s like, so trippy,” said Mary Peterson, while packing her favorite 18-inch statue of Buddha she bought in Mexico in 2006 while their U-Haul truck hums in the driveway. “We’ve voted as progressively as possible in every election since our twenties, and yet things are worse than ever. It’s, like, so bizarre.”
Effect, meet Cause.
Go ahead and come to Tennessee. But stay in Nashville or Memphis with the rest of the idiot left.
Because if you come to the saner parts of the state, like where I live, and try to “stop” things you don’t like or try and shove your “progressive” BS down our throats you will politely be met by a group of well armed people suggesting you leave. Albeit very nicely.
