eta - numbering went totally strange, so enclosed each in "
I’m surprised Mississippi isn’t on that list. I assume this is 1 at worst because while I have no doubt Arizona and Kansas suck major ass, they can’t be worse than Tennessee and Alabama.
Also surprised Indiana made the list. Godsawful hellhole sure, and impressively so given its neighbors, but I always pictured it as a mundane shittiness. I think of Indiana like I think of Iowa, firstly I don’t, but when I do it sucks but not like, on par with Alabama and texas, more in a “yeah it’s like the bastard child of Michigan and Iowa” there’s nothing to do in the farmland or suburbs, and gang violence in the former industrial areas, all with none of the remotely effective policy of Illinois, Ohio, or Michigan.
I have a bud who lives there. Lots of straight up drugs and bigots, some of the recent laws they passed are straight up backwards. I think it mostly pops up because of the drug issues though, he always talks about seeing people on crack and meth.
The university there is probably holding the state up a smidge both the others you mentioned.
Coming from MS, yea. Alabama is better. They have better liquor laws and brewery laws, and it shows. Alabama has Huntsville, which is a huge engineering hub that’s being built up constantly. MS has nothing like that.
I’ve seen eta used a lot, like you did. For me, it always meant “estimated time (of) arrival”. What does it mean in your context?
Thanks. It must show my age, that i sometimes don’t think about the obvious googling for anything.
This homogenizes the entire states. KC, Austin, Bentonville, and Fayetteville are all desirable places to live.
Tulsa and OKC as well. The countryside is flat, windy and hot as fuck, so if you like going outside a lot it’s probably not for you, but both metros in OK are pretty nice.
As for Arkansas, Little Rock is severely slept on. Not as pretty as Fayetteville and Bentonville, obviously, but I was surprised in visiting recently how much it had grown since I had lived there.
Of course, in all of those places, the fact remains that you’re living in goddamned Oklahoma or Arkansas, and that’s an experience I simply don’t recommend.
What would happen if you give predatory businesses/owners free reign in a US state? What if the laws passed protect them completely from any liability while targeting the rights of you and your family? Ever wanted to live within the blast radius of a chemical plant? Come to Texas, but remember, BYOG!

Don’t forget that Texas is home to over 200 megachurches, which includes the likes of Joel Osteen, and that’s not by accident.
I should open a mega church. My day gig just isn’t cutting it anymore and I Iike the idea of getting rich while working only Sundays.
Remember kids, the lone star is our review rating.
That tracks. Every other week, this is my mood here.
It looks like Texas is finally beaten Florida to the bottom. I guess we could declare, what’s his name, Greg Abbott the winner of that fucking race.
