[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h68UJaHvG_c&feature=aso[/media]I'm in Michigan myself. I knew about the serial killers, but I had no idea we were known for cereal making. The South Carolina one made me laugh because I lived there a couple years ago and there were Confederate flags everywhere.
I don't really understand the Maryland stereotype (I am from Maryland). I think it might have to do with where I am in Maryland.
[QUOTE=SoaringScout;30167839]I don't really understand the Maryland stereotype (I am from Maryland). I think it might have to do with where I am in Maryland.[/QUOTE] Maryland's densely populated with rich blue bloods.
Oregon one is true
[QUOTE=ZF911;30167354]I'm in Michigan myself. I knew about the serial killers, but I had no idea we were known for cereal making.[/QUOTE] Kellogg's has its world headquarters in Battle Creek, I remember passing by it a long time ago when I was a little kid.
Florida is dead on.
Indiana. So true it hurts.
New Jersey, Texas and Florida are straight on correct.
The one about NJ is fucking spot on.
Minnesota is very true, my middle school class went on a trip to see the capital building and our governor and even though he was supposed to talk with us about what it's like to be governor. He secretly left and it took people working there half an hour to figure it out and then tell us about it.
I was expecting something along the lines of redneck Canadians from the Louisiana part to be honest. Was pretty funny though.
Illinois, and that was sort of lame. He should have poked fun at our heavy amount of snobby middle class white kids.

The best part about the Michigan one was the fact that he was standing in a car dealership.
I was waiting for something funny for Ohio, that wasn't even a stereotype.
Virginia is totally accurate. I make a forty-minute drive to college everyday. Twenty minutes from Richmond (state capital, one-time capital of the Confederacy, still a major city), you can see rusted tractors on the side of the road and collapsed barns.
Anyone hear what he said for New York? Can't understand the last part of that one.
[QUOTE=G-Guy;30169355]Anyone hear what he said for New York? Can't understand the last part of that one.[/QUOTE] 14th biggest state, 1st biggest ego.
[QUOTE=G-Guy;30169355]Anyone hear what he said for New York? Can't understand the last part of that one.[/QUOTE] Something about egos. Remember New York is one of those states where everyone ignores the people who don't live one particular part of. That seems to be very common among the mid east coastal states.
New York is pretty true.. Anyone who says otherwise is a fucking cunt
[QUOTE=scottsmith46;30169506]14th biggest state, 1st biggest ego.[/QUOTE] Actually it's World's 14 biggest city, 1st biggest ego Also is New Hampshire actually stereotypically french?

south carolina one is very accurate
[QUOTE=Aredbomb;30169530]Something about egos. Remember New York is one of those states where everyone ignores the people who don't live one particular part of. That seems to be very common among the mid east coastal states.[/QUOTE] I live in upstate New York and this is incredibly true.
Arizona's stereotype was kinda lame.
[QUOTE=kamikaze470;30171233]Arizona's stereotype was kinda lame.[/QUOTE] Just like Arizona.
My dad is from the UP, what was that about serial killers?
Not quite getting the PA one, is he saying we fight everything?
Not getting the Florida one, "The more North you go, the more South it gets" I get it now, the northern parts of Florida are more culturally southern, I live in north Florida, did just realize that when I go to the more southern parts geographically, there are less rednecks.
[QUOTE=Rebi;30171654]Not getting the Florida one, "The more North you go, the more South it gets"[/QUOTE] I've been to Florida and that's true. The Floridian peninsula has a large population of Jews and Cuban immigrants, and is relatively metropolitan. The Northern parts of Florida are more rural and culturally connected with the greater American South.
It has been ten days since the last tornado, actually.
