What is your state bad at?

California's air pollution ain't half what it was twenty years ago. Now if you want to know what we're really bad at? Bullet trains!

The Indian name for the LA Basin means 'Valley of the Brown Sky'. So air pollution has been there long before cars were ever invented.

My state has the highest unemployment rate. Somehow, with the thousands of vacant auto industry factories around, that isn't surprising.

Can't help but feel like the map is arbitrary.

The shape of tornado alley changes a little every year, but every map you see of it, Minnesota is always on the ass end of it.

Arizona completely, utterly sucks at designing functional parking lots. I'm often tempted to blame the drivers, but it's what we have to work with that's the root problem.

My county, (we don't have states) is among the worst for potholes in the roads. If no more occur from today, at the present rate of mending them it will take 30 years.

But they will continue to appear, so at the present rate of fixing and the budget allowed, the completion date is infinity.

Michigan--large swaths of wilderness that spend months covered in snow and ice. And Detroit. Hell, yeah, I'd binge drink. (Although maintaining a constant, low-grade buzz might be the wiser approach.)

Uh the alcoholics are in Wisconsin. If your in Michigan you're unemployed. But both state are covered in snow for months at a time. Especially in winter.

Nothing wrong with a little snow.

Didn't say there was. I lived in snow country for...a long, long time. Now I don't.

So my state is bad at stroke?

How that hell that works with as many jack-offs as we got in local government I'll never know. Believe me it's not for lack of practice on their part.

That's because all those asshats in government give their constituents strokes.

Add to that #1 at electing fuck ups to the governor's seat!!!

Fucking up is one thing, being prosecuted for it is another. We lived most of our lives in Illinois which HAS to lead the nation in Governors serving jail time after being in office.

So now we live in Florida - I figured if my identity was here, I should be too.

Illinois! Southern Illinois is wonderful, but there is no money/jobs there. During the 70 and 80's people would drive up from down state, work in Chicago and drive back home for the weekend. The came from as far way as Kentucky. Now, I don't know. I have been away from Chicago for some time now.
