Homesick Candles

Recently, I came across the idea of Homesick candles, a candle brand that touts different scents based on the signature smells of the different states. Well I believe that they are all incorrect. So here is my interpretation of the scents of some of the states.

Alabama

Backwater hillbillies.

Alaska

Wet moose and Sarah Palin.

California

Drought.

Colarado

Weed, obvs.

Delaware

Not giving a fuck about Deleware.

Florida

Old people and pure insanity.

Hawaii

Casually racist tourists.

Idaho

Potatoes and settling for things.

Maine

Lobster in the sun.

Maryland

Crab in the sun.

Massachusetts

Liberal politics.

Michigan

What's lurking under the lakes.

Nebraska

Flatness.

New Jersey

Being inferior to New York. Also My Chemical Romance, for some fucking reason.

New York

White privilege.

Rhode Island

Never shutting the fuck up about the fact you're from Rhode Island.

Texas

Republicans.

Utah

Mormons.

Wisconsin

Cheese?

Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life.
