If your neighboring states were family members... (high school, income)

[The_General]

New Hampshire - Idiot cousin, Live Free or Die baby
Vermont - Grandfather's brother who went to Woodstock but never really left
Connecticut - Bi Polar - either really really wealthy or really really poor. But mostly you're popped collar cousin who's kind of a douche but you want to go on his boat.
Rhode Island - Talks about how great it is in Providence but works in Boston or on 128

[FreewayFelix]

I'm originally from Georgia.

South Carolina - younger sibling who always wants to hang out with you & your friends

North Carolina - you're sure this guy exists but you've never really seen him. Your friends say you two are a lot like, and he's probably really nice...but like I said you guys have never met

Tennessee - the guy across the street who doesn't seem to have a job, but his stuff is just a little bit nicer. His grass is a little greener, his kids are a little smarter...you try not to let it get to you

Alabama - really noisy neighbor who just wants attention, but you're able to ignore him for the most part. spends most weekends drinking with his best friend Mississippi

Florida - meth addict living in your basement

[berger123]

I live in Utah:

Idaho: The neighbor who has the biggest lot on the street and multiple farm animals and they are most similar to you.
Nevada: The neighbor where you go to to get good mixed drinks and play poker on the weekends.
Arizona: The neighbor that is a bit pretentious but loves to party and doesn't ever wear any clothes.
Colorado: The neighbor who likes to chill and hang outside most of the time, they are always down to smoke weed and drink coors light.
Wyoming: The cowboy next door that has two horses and doesn't like the city life, often goes out of town on his camper with his pet skunk and bobcat.

South Carolina - Your bitchy sister that puts on airs and drinks on the quiet.
North Carolina - Your ambitious, prosperous but well-mannered older sister.
Tennessee - Your very proper maiden aunt that has an affection for bourbon, tells a great story and knows where the bodies are buried.
Alabama - Your dim-witted brother that has a still in his basement.
Florida - Your overly permissive divorced aunt that lets you have the run of the place on your summer vacation. Auntie Mame.

With Wisconsin in the family nobody questions our drinking.

[Mattks]

Kansas

Missouri: the older uncle who we got in a fist fight with years ago, we never completely worked things out, but our lives seem to be forever intertwined... too intertwined... can’t you just let us have some nice stuff on our side of the border.

Nebraska: More or less our twin. We grew out of the same circumstances and basically kept to the same values and lifestyle. Not much to say really, how’s the weather? Can’t wait to go back to the zoo someday.

Oklahoma: If we are really related, why do you talk so dang weird and what is going on in your churches. Can’t everyone just sit down and have some peace and quiet. When you come over and ask us if we “y’all have some soda,” it’s like you live in a whole different world. Can’t you just speak English and ask, “you guys have some pop?”

Colorado: The cool cousin we try to visit as often as possible, but when it comes right down to it, you kind of freak us out, I think the altitude is effecting your mental state.

I almost spit out my coffee reading this.

[Katarina Witt]

I'm originally from Pennsylvania

Ontario: The in-law from abroad.

New York: The rich relations who call you "Pennsylbama"

New Jersey: The flashy, gum-chewing bleached blonde cousin in the tight clothes.

Delaware: Looks like New Jersey, but no one can remember her name.

Maryland: The cousin who complains you just can't get good seafood in Pittsburgh.

West Virginia: The uncle who arrives with some "interesting" home-made, er, beer.

Ohio: The cousin who raises chickens for 4-H.

This is hilarious. Revive this thread!

[CookieSkoon]

From NY.

Pennsylvania - That brother who always called you a nerd and likes to hunt and fish constantly but is secretly also a nerd. You mock each other all the time but at the end of the day you're still brothers.

New Jersey - That obnoxious nephew who wants to be just like you but only copies a single facet of your personality and brings it to a logical extreme. Ironically they find success in doing so.

Connecticut - The rich aunt who owns land in three states and you don't talk to a lot because she basically just judges you all the time.

Massachusetts - The yuppie uncle who thinks he's cool and tries to connect with "the youths" by using out dated slang and sharing internet memes from ten years ago over Facebook. Don't talk sports though, he gets mad.

Vermont - Hippie grandpa. Smells funny, loves nature, older than dirt. Yet somehow cooler than yuppie uncle.

Quebec - The wino. That one pickled relative who ruins every Thanksgiving gathering at about 6 PM at the latest.

Ontario - The overly friendly guy who is friends with your... dad you think? He always says hello and seems to know a lot about you, yet you only see him once a year and it's a little awkward.

You know it's just projection.
