Seriously, Mississippi is like the Somalia of US.  Nothing that I hear from there surprises me anymore.

That is the 2nd stupidest thing I've read on Languish today.

Seriously, you people eat a bowl of stupid today?

No kidding.  Mississippi is more like the North Korea of the US.

I almost feel like we should have a meta-thread called "Mississippi: The Death of America"
Hasn't it always been a rathole though? This stuff is nothing new.

Yeah but rather than have horror stories of MS clutter up the board in their own threads - we can just contain it to one like we do with Ohio and Detroit. ^_^

I expect better of DG. He may be a Russian crypto-commie, but I expect better.

That's fine but acting like MS is a decent place is equally problematic.

Yeah, it is a shithole. A moist shithole in summer. But Somalia levels of shit? Nah.

And yes, I likely overreacted against our favorite Telefon agent.

Well Somalia can at least blame a lack of government. :P

No, unfortunately not considering that many terrible laws are often being codified there.

I'm telling you, nothing would be more fun than watching the Department of Justice totally flood the South with election monitors this fall.

Mississippi gave us Elvis, what has Somalia done to match that? :elvis:

Gave us Afro-asiatic languages.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
