You want Kentucky to be fought over by Romanians and Hungarians?
That'd be nice, now that you mention it.  They might leave behind: booty :perv:

Rhode Island, 1045 sq. miles of pure awesomeness.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The other RI is less third-worldish.
:yeahright: How so?


Providence is the gay capital of the east coast. Third world places aren't generally decadent enough to achieve something like that.  :P

I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

It's the gay summer resort of New England.

I'd rather go to Provincetown if I were looking to hangout with gays.

Yeah when MiM first said Providence, I started thinking he really meant Provincetown.

Indeed.  Providence is the greaseball and scumbag capital of the East Coast.  Well, except for Boston.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.
