note to self, casa myshkin needs a new motto.
Brilliant! I'm so stealing this list!
very funny!
I always thought Nebraska's motto should be "just passin' through on the way to someplace better" because everything they use to symbolize the state has a covered wagon heading west on it.
Heh, I thought the state motto from Texas was "Fuck you, we're from Texas."
Good stuff.
Ohio, damn even the motto's are dull.
It's not a state motto, but the first time I went to Tahoe I say t-shirts and caps that said, "Texans can't ski because Bullshit ain't white." Or, "If god had meant for Texans to ski, he would have made bullshit white". Having worked with Texans, I have learned that when a Texan says, "Now this is no bullshit" you better pull up your boots because it is going to get deep.
If Florida is America's wang, it is drooping severely and could use a lot of Viagra.
mrsb:good i stole it from stumble upon..ha
lc:i love stumble upon..
nan:yeah, me too..go west young man..go west..
bigtex:that's not our motto, that's our attitude..hahahahaha
ohio:ohio, we fuck up elections..
kulkuri:one thing i have always admired about us texans..we brag about the worse part of being a texan..we take pride in being the best of the worse...look at our governors..haha
when i was in las vegas i wore a pin that said, if you ain't from texas you aint for shit...i had people offering me $100 for it..i finally sold it for $150..paid $1 for it in texas...so who's dumb?haha
It took me a minute to get Tennessee, so I guess that one would work for Oklahoma too!
Sling's Domain..Where the lemonade contains artificial flavor,and the furniture polish is made from real lemon juice.
Cool!
...and I love all the Texas stuff...even though I haven't lived there for years, I still consider myself a Texan. :)
tex;when i saw that all i could think of was pink floyd's 'we don't need no education, leave us kids alone.'...
sling:uh, i'll just have a coconut and a hammer if i come to your house...
big pissy:if you were born here and raised here, no matter where you move or for how long...you are and always will be...a texan..
these are funny!
loved this:
"Louisiana: We're Not ALL Drunk Cajun Wackos, But That's Our Tourism Campaign"
Oh those are so good. I read them to all the yahoos I work with...got some good laughs. Love the Kentucky one.
Aaahahahahaaaa!!!!
I think WV's should be "No, we don't live near Richmond!"
Made me laugh (and laugh). But then, you always do.
California and Missouri!!! ARGH!! I'd better move down to west with you!!!
my state has two and I am not sure I get either one of them...but I'm stupid anyway so whatevah.
Oklahoma is a lot like the play, I can't remember were I parked my surrey last night.
I was born in Colorado and have never been skiing in my life. I think that may be a mortal sin.
I think I could dig Wisconsin, both for the cheese and the fact that their motto invites me to do what I do so well naturally!
