Vermont and New Hampshire, mutual enemies. totally. -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:26
"Texas: Everyone" Sounds about right. -- nm - GregW Jan 17, 09:24 1
- yup -- nm - Epiphany Jan 17, 09:45
California? I would have guessed Texas, not sure why though. I don't hate other states. - Krusty Jan 17, 09:19 11
- norcal/socal have too much of a civil war to bother about any other state, the world revolves around them -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 17, 13:43
- Texas isn't competition in the way that California is. (At least, from NYC's perspective) -- nm - Roger More Jan 17, 09:47
- I was sure it would be NJ. Or FL for stealing all our white trash. - ty97 Jan 17, 09:36 1
  - Jersey would make some sense. -- nm - Krusty Jan 17, 09:37
- New York writers often have a hatey boner or disdain for CA/LA. I don't think that's any kind of secret - con_carne Jan 17, 09:32 4
  - yep -- nm - Diva Jan 17, 09:40
  - You may be right about that. I've read things like you've mentioned. -- nm - Krusty Jan 17, 09:37
  - agreed. -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:33 1
    - Also, it's not like we work that hard to dispel those stereotypes. I don't think we care that much - con_carne Jan 17, 09:40
- California would have been my pick. LA, yuck! -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:21 1
  - I have no issues with them. Texas feels like the anti-New York to me. -- nm - Krusty Jan 17, 09:24
Virgina - Maryland. yep. hate Maryland drivers. -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:18 4
- The reason you hate MD drivers is because we are used to functioning roads, which your state doesn't seem to have :-) -- nm - MDH Jan 17, 09:29 1
  - The reason I hate them is they have no concept of the alternate merge or letting someone into a lane. - loosilu Jan 17, 09:31
- I used to think I hated a lot of Illinois drivers and then I realized that a lot of rental cars here have Illinois plates. -- nm - Captain Trips Jan 17, 09:20 1
  - well I was driving in Maryland so I assume they were from there. -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:21
Illinois - New York? -- nm - spamlet Jan 17, 09:17 7
- (Chicago / NYC) -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:18 5
  - Not from the Chicago side. No one cares. - spamlet Jan 17, 09:23 4
    - Oh, I disagree. They pretend to not care, but the Napoleon complex I experienced while I was there was so telling. -- nm - ty97 Jan 17, 09:34 1
      - Yes,it's like Boston/NY. -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:42
    - NYC doesn't remember Chicago is there. -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:24 1
      - Yup. :-) -- nm - Krusty Jan 17, 09:26

Wait, Indiana hates Illionois but Kentucky hates Indiana? No. Indiana hates Kentucky. -- nm - Captain Trips Jan 17, 09:16 7
- I did like (Park and Recs spoiler) - Roger More Jan 17, 09:49
- maybe you just hate everyone. -- nm - loosilu Jan 17, 09:18 5
  - I do not hate Illinois. I hardly even remember it is there! - Captain Trips Jan 17, 09:19 3
    - I like Columbus a lot. However, Cinti and Cleveland have both tried to kill me more than once. -- nm - Diva Jan 17, 09:34 2
      - I am basically not allowed to enter Cleveland anymore. -- nm - Captain Trips Jan 17, 09:45 1
        
        This really is for the greater good. In my case, it would only end in tears. Again. -- nm - Diva Jan 17, 09:49
