My least favorite state is prone, in bed, the victim of food poisoning.
A close second is Ohio.

A Drunken stupor, or Louisiana, they are equivilent.

Arkansas. The only state where you can truly drive by braille. IOW, if you no longer feel like your kidneys are being shaken loose you're probably in the ditch.

Cougar,
Maybe so, but spoiled city folk avoid our state like the plague. If you don't like our paved highways, there's always the gravel roads. If they don't satisfy ya, blade it yourself.
Least favorite state...Florida. Heavily developed tropical sand dune. Prefer states with some elevation...like Montana, Wyoming, Idaho. Would have included Colorado...but urbanites that want to live in or near the wilderness are about to ruin it.

Alabama, Arkansas, Tennessee, Georgia... and I'll throw in Illinois (FIBs).

Virginia-not even a state it's a "commonwealth" or as we sailors like to call it a "COMMIE-wealth"
This place is all about making money for the state tax on everything and they still have a 1 billion budget shortfall. They are all about what is best for corperations and business owners and don't care if the consumer has to take it up the prettythang. Not to mention the weather here SUCKS! F-ck virginia.

New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, DC, Ohio, Maine, Connecticut, and Maryland. If you've ever driven 18 wheelers, you understand.

I dunno, all the states I've visited have had their good points, even Kalifornia! I guess the worst, though, would have to be Utah, since I've only ever actually been at the SLC airport. Flying into SLC is what I imagine flying into hell would be like...what a barren wasteland!

Bad roads, small roads, traffic, toll roads, toll bridges, low bridges, nowhere to park, traffic, no cops when you need them, bad cops when you don't, warehouses built in the 1920's, traffic and bad roads. I left Delaware out because I was lazy. Driving a big truck in the NE was no fun. It could cost you nearly $200 in tolls just to drive into and out of NYC back then. I'm sure it's more now.
There was just too many people shoved into that 1 area and they overloaded the capacity of the infrastructure so everything was constantly under repair or needing repair. For people that have grown up living there, they don't know what it's like to live any other way, so they are fine with it. I come from a less crowded area and know what the difference is. It's true Dominoes doesn't deliver where I live, but I sleep peacefully with my doors unlocked at night.

really cold states, really liberal states and states where the people bray like donkeys.

Probably Nebraska or Arkansas.
Wait
Nebraska has the SAC museum.
Arkansas has Clinton.
Tiebreaker to Arkansas.
I didn't consider any states I haven't been to, which is pretty much the whole east coast.
It's not a state, but DC sucks as bad as any place I've been.

Oklahoma is basically a non state. We never get on good lists, we never get on bad lists. Mediocracy is boring, we should be really good or suck. Someone say they hate Oklahoma and make me feel better.

I hate Oklahoma! I seriously do.

You know I got a ticket in Oklahoma from a cop who had radar that shot BEHIND his car. I hate Oklahoma.

You guys have a right to hate California for the politics... every liberal whacko, womanly law that is passed here eventualy bites the rest of you on the butt...

Nebraska, the people are some of the nicest you'd want to meet, but it's like driving on a treadmill. I believe the state tree is the telephone pole

You forgot to mention the humidity, afternoon thunderstorms, and love bugs (http://www.snopes.com/critters/lurkers/lovebugs.htm).
On the other hand, we have palm trees, good beaches, some surfing, some crystal-clear spring-fed rivers, manatees, and good flying weather (more or less).
And, of course, bikinis (http://www.venusswimwear.com/).

Florida Capacity Reached; Thousands Turned Back
TALLAHASSEE - Governor Bush declared today that Florida had reached its population capacity and closed its borders to Alabama and Georgia, a move some see as being politically risky.
"According to the latest census data and the estimated capacity of the Florida aquifer, we have concluded that Florida has reached its capacity for sustaining human life," a government spokesman announced this morning, "if we are to continue to develop tracts of land, we will have to reduce the quality of life for those tax-paying citizens already in-state."
Crucial to the decision was the estimated consumption of water per individual, coupled with the amount of land available for development and the number of parking spaces allocated for tourism.
Political special-interest groups gathered excitedly in the lobby of the capitol. Opponents to the announced closing of Florida's borders suggested that more land could be made available by annexing the southern coast of Alabama all the way to Louisiana, ("after all, we already have most of the Redneck Riviera anyway" one spectator commented) and by dredging up the coastline south of Jacksonville all the way to Miami as part of a beach re-nourishment program. "The sandy Gulf bottom is Florida land, we just can't build on it because it is underwater," one activist was heard saying, "so really, we just want to reclaim that which is ours."
With proposals to solve the land-use problems under consideration, attention turned to the water consumption issue. Green Asian clams continue to thwart efforts at operating the salt-water desalination plant near Tampa, and there are concerns about increased salinity of the water causing increasing operating costs of the plant. "Yeah, this desal plant thing just isn't working out. That snake-oil salesman really took us for a ride on this one," one plant foreman complained.
Meanwhile, Florida National Guardsmen were called up for exercises along the Florida/Georgia border. While no specific plans have been announced, some military experts predict an imminent invasion of Valrico and Savannah in the days to come.

Nebraska... flat, brown, and smells like death.

Yeah, those OHP cars all have that, as do most of the larger city cops. I got nailed on I-235 in OKC with a rear firing radar. It was instant on to, because my passport didn't pick it up, until right before he slammed on his brakes and got behind me.

All of the above. If the weather, landscape and/or preponderance of hot women overwhelm the vaginal, psuedo-socialist politics or any other negative aspect then the state can be seen as desireable, overall. It really depends on how you feel. When I lived in Southern Cali, I hated the politics, got sick of the weather(or lack thereof), but found many other things to more or less cancel out what I didn't like. In the end, Cali earned a decent, if not dignified 7.3 from me.

I have no interest in places where the seasons bring huge weather changes... Those changes make people talk funny.
States that are constantly wet depress normal people.

Funked,
You can take Arkansas off your list...we no longer have Clinton. He occasionally drops by to schmooze, mooch a meal, and pinch a few butts. Otherwise, we're no longer good enough for him.

gofaster,
I'm from Arkansas...so I'm used to humidity. I've met the love bug and I know what you mean. We gots bikinis in Arkansas too, but ours only come out in the summertime, when they're supposed to.
