So true. I had to find that out the hard way. Although NJ isn't as bad as NY.
Yea that is the difference with Californians ... we already know we are on top so we don't really have to "take away" any positives from other states unlike new yorkers. Case in point every time someone posts about why they like CA , insecure new yorkers(except rachael) come in and try to dissect every notion of greatness...like the weather..the beaches, the diversity, etc.
They even do it with Florida when you tell them how great the beaches are and how you don't have to deal with the frigid temps they go "so ...i like 4 seasons and our beaches our better" or some absurd statement.

Yet, they're still moving to FL and they arent moving out, the natives are.
How? I didn't insult another place nowhere in that whole statement.
Also, where in real life do you see Texans constantly criticizing every state and stating were better than others compared to NE people??? It's very rare because were modest people and understand that not everyone will love it here.
Texans not criticizing other states? If that's the case, I have some oceanfront property in Arizona for sell.
That being said, I've met many cool, laid back Texans too.
Definitely Texas and people who live in the deep south also have to let you know where they are from (though you can usually tell anyway by their accents). I love Wisconsin, but, as much as I hate to say it, alot of them are egoists too. Alot of people that I know from there think that WI is at the center of the universe and that no place else can compare. I give them hell over it all the time. They just can't figure out why everybody wouldn't want to live in Oshkosh or Sheboygan.
More people are more familiar Texas or NY, but that's jsut becasue there are more people from those states. People from Minnesota and Wisconsin are obsessed with their states. And the only thing both of them hate more than each other is people from Chicago.
Typical Minnesotan response if you tell them you aren't from there:
"Oooh yah? Didja know dat we got more lakes den you guys dere."
Not saying it's bad though. It';s a great state.
