The Worst Stereotype Of Each Of The 50 States

Each state has their own stereotypes that drive it's residents absolutely crazy (I would know, I'm from Jersey)...Whether they are true or not it really doesn't matter; people still associate these stereotypes with its respective state. Here are the worst stereotypes of each of the 50 states:

1. Alabama: "The South Will Rise Again."


2. Alaska: You Are Always Up Close And Personal With Nature

Just another day where a bunch of kindergarteners get to say hi to Smokey The Kodiak Bear on their way to a school day full of finger painting.


3. Arizona: Desert, Grand Canyon, and More Desert


4. Arkansas: Where Everyone Has The Same DNA



5. California: The Land Of The Liberal Dudes And Dudettes



6. Colorado: Where Everyday Is 4/20


7. Connecticut: The Home Of America's one percent.

This is 50 Cent's Connecticut Mansion.


8. Delaware: The State That Has Nothing


No, the picture above has indeed loaded on your electronic device. It's just a portrait of what Delaware has to offer.


9. Florida: Heaven's Waiting Room


10. Georgia: Where A Few Inches Of Snow Shuts Down The Entire State

When Atlanta get's less than three inches of snow, they send in the National Guard.


11. Hawaii: Laziest People In The Entire Country

It all makes sense now.

13. Illinois: The Birthplace Of Obesity

28. Nevada: Where All Of The Women Are Cocktail Waitresses & All Of The Men Are Elvis Impersonators


29. New Hampshire: Massachusetts' Perfect Older Brother


30. New Jersey: Abrasive, Fist-Pumping Guidos


31. New Mexico: Contains Proof To Government Secrets


32. New York: They Think They Are Better Than You


33. North Carolina: Where Everyone Eventually Dies From Lung & Mouth Cancer


34. North Dakota: Where no one has neighbors.

(The birthplace of Nike.)

39. Rhode Island: The worst drivers in the world.


40. South Carolina: The diabetic state.


41. South Dakota: Just miles and miles of flat, grassy terrain.


42. Tennessee: Where life is basically described by every country music video ever.

Look! A Tennessee wedding!


43. Texas: Where everything is bigger; and where everyone is a beer drinking, gun loving, racist cowboy.

This is what a stereotypical Cowboy looks like in 2016.


44. Utah: The Mormon state.


45. Vermont: Maple syrup worshippers.


46. Virginia: Where time-travel is real 365 days of the year.


47. Washington: Hippies! Hippies everywhere!

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself?
