I quite like Pennsylvania, that's where I consider myself to be from. I think PA in general is a bit underrated, and it's home to many good snacks and the best convenience store chains. (Wawa and Sheetz).

I was born in Arizona, but haven't lived much and it's been ages since I last visited. I like Virginia, it's my favorite southern state. Richmond was nice.

I think most states have lots of nice things about them.

Argh, I hate that. Carbonated beverages are the opposite of soft, they're like liquefied porcupines. A drink that's actually soft would be Kool-Aid or apple juice.

I have 3 Califonia, Newyork, Maryland. The entertainment capital the financial capital, the safe zone for weather.
I am pro-life, anti-gun, pro-immigration, pro UHC, pro-free college, pro universal income, anti-war, anti-death penalty, pro-financial ade, pro anything that makes children's lives better.

I finally realised how messed up English was when I read a sign in French and could comprehend half of it despite never learning any French

Well look who's back.

And again, all hail Nebraska! Safe haven of the US if it somehow falls, no one will never find it for never learning about where it actually is on the map!
I should know because as playing a US loyal Nebraska in a RP everyone didn't dare oppose me mostly for not knowing where I was. they didn't know I was still loyal muahahaha

A lot of 3rd world countries too. Mississippi isn't really THAT poor by global standards -- but the combination of relative poverty compared to the rest of the US, plus a lot of dysfunctional attitudes and history, is bad.

I was wondering where it was, cos it really does capture New England perfectly... Even though I don't recognize the specific place -- and I haven't been to Camden, ME, so if that's where it is then of course I wouldn't recognize it -- it still looks familiar because it's so much like other places I've seen around New England.

Yep, I just scrolled through my pics from my last visit, and that is 100% Camden Harbor taken from above (Camden Hills State Park). One of my favorite places in the world!

Burlington is pretty nice. I expected a small city, but it really feels like a small, small town, and I liked that vibe. Parking was a bitch, but there's this hole in the wall thai place in Burlington, don't remember the name, but it overlooks Lake Champlain and is some of the best thai food I've had.. Highly recommend.
