LMFAO!!!
Love it!! But I thought there was a special place for Pitt (or is it Shittsburgh)?
It is the capital of Assholistan.
Thanks for clarifying. I blogged it too and am getting good feedback.
We are spreading the joy. :-)
Note for non-Appalachians. That is not a typo. Many WVians really say "Warshington."
Oh, and the "Broncos Suck" thing might not be an opinion shared by all West Virginians, just us Browns fans.
Oh, and if any of these offend anyone, please let me know and I will have one of my interns knock out a glowing CVB-style writeup on your geographic area.
I like how Wal-Mart got its own special state.
Hahahahahahahahaha
Funny because it's true. lol
Funniest ... post ... evar! (and so true)
A big ...ASAT welcome to all to folks surfing here from buzzfeed.com.
For more good stuff from WV, check out some of the sites on my blogroll.
Hey, wait a minute. Some of my best friends are Ohioans even though they drive like shit in their old beat up trucks with homemade wooden tailgates because the state is so lax about vehicle inspections.
Pittsburgh and the surrounding area is about right on the money though.
This is really fabulous, thanks for making it! Hehehe.
Elvis, LAX on vehicle inspections? They dont' have any. Once I saw a truck with no front....no grille, no bumper, no headlights, nothing! Can be good folks but the driving habits puts them right back to asshole status.
Aaahahahahahaaaa!!!!!!
A friend from Toledo said that inspections are lax due to all of the salt-based corrosion in the winter. Apparently every car north of Lima-Dublin-Cambridge would fail.
That's fantastic.
Very,very funny!! Thanks, Rick, for pointing me here.
This is great. I linked to it at Passatworld and the forum feedback is funny.
Also, welcome to everyone dropping in from Passat World, MGOBLOG, and the Good Ole Boys Atheist Network.
the sad part is, it is a pretty accurate depiction of the way west virginians think.
anon: Thanks for dropping by. I wouldn't put too much faith in the map, though, as it is more my perception of a perception of reality than reality or a true perception of reality.
'Cept for the one about Texas football movies. Didn't it seem like they made a new one every 10 minutes in the 90s?
Why would West Virgina people root for a football team from assholistan?
Mainly 'cause they always show Steelers 'n Browns games on TV.
Hey Chris --
Hilarious!!!
As a life-long resident of the "Coach Thieves" state, I must admit I laughed my ass off at your map. Assholistan is right on, brother! You guys hate Pitt; We hate the Buckeyes!
Even though I'm a Wolverine, I can still call you brother, btw, as my father was born and raised in Huntington. And yes, he calls it warshington, too!
Ask him if he prefers Stewart's or Frostop.
Also welcome to everyone from fraterslibertas.com.
Very accurate! I always heard it as WORSHington not Warshington though. :D
