New Hampshire ridicules Massatwosheets in a not so lighthearted way.
Every time it snows the governor declares a "shelter in place" order and you can be arrested just for driving home.
"Life behind the iron curtain"
"Where everything's illegal"
My favorite; "It's like living in the shadow of Mordor."
I've heard Mazzholes say;
"Are those women or cows?"
"New Hampshire has more cows than women."
"New Hampshire, where men are men, women are scarce and cows are nervous."

None in Seattle. Oregon is too similar to here and the kinds of people who move here usually like it as well, while Idaho is in a totally different cultural sphere and I rarely even hear it mentioned.
There has to be a stereotype or something, right? Louisiana people say thank God for Mississippi being #50 because they'd be #50. Or that people in Texas or Mississippi or Arkansas can't cook.
Louisiana talks about them all.
As for Colorado? I haven't particularly noticed any neighboring state rivals.
I think CO has a good relationship with it’s neighbors. Although residents do kinda call anything East of the Front Range cities “Kansas” in a disparaging way.
Colorado and Wyoming may have the same geographic shape and mountains, but that's where the similarities end.
People in Wyoming call people from Colorado "Greenies" in reference to our green license plates. They view Colorado as being too crowded (5.9 million vs 575k) too liberal, too bougie, can't stand our weed and progressiveness, absolutely hate our gun laws, and take offense to us invading their pristine untouched wilderness, even though we don't move there and rarely visit. Funny because if you go to the northern front range cities in Colorado, (Ft.Collins, Loveland etc.) you can find a ton of Wyoming license plates as they go there for biggish city amenities like high end shopping, fine dinning, hospitals, airport access and entertainment, ect, but Coloradans have no issue with that because it's just more revenue for our state! I hope people not familiar with this region better understand why this dynamic exists.
In Minnesota, there is plenty of joking about Iowa and the Dakotas, mostly North Dakota. They are thought of as the middle of nowhere farm states, which is largely true. Wisconsin gets joked about too although I think most of us at least secretly like WI to some degree since it is more of a peer state with more shared culture and geography to MN than the other neighbors.
I've never heard anyone in Florida make fun of a neighboring state. The only states we laugh at are the ones up north that experience long hard winters.
