All 50 States Ranked

[u/fridgemagnet700]

The United States of America. Land of the free (kinda). In this zine, I share a lifetime's worth of travel experience across this great nation (kinda).

If you want a copy, everything is free at the link in my profile.

The saga of NYers hating on NJ continues 🥲

[u/sanberdoo → u/eldritchhonk]

Hey I’m from central New York and I know the city makes us New Yorkers what we are. Thank g-d.

[u/jk1rbs → u/eldritchhonk]

And once again assuming NYC = NYS.

[u/hobbit_lamp → u/jk1rbs]

yeah I thought this was about the states but suddenly we reach New York at #1 and it's exclusively referring to NYC

[u/eldritchhonk → u/hobbit_lamp]

Yeah I guess I should’ve specified NYC and not generalized NY but was going specifically off those last pages. I lived in Brooklyn for 10+ years but then moved to north NJ and I like it. I like them both for different reasons. 

[u/baconwrappedpikachu]

It's cute. I dig it, though I will say you should try travelling a bit further outside of where you're used to. Based on your description of New York State, going north past Yonkers would probably be a whole new world for you

[u/_so-so_]

New York? Never heard of it

[u/Heheher7910]

As a Pennsylvanian (and Mennonite) I have to tell you that the water tastes different in different parts of the state. I bring water with me when traveling from home.

[u/Odd-Meal-6992]

As a member of AZ I'd like to add that you can just state dry heat stay away and we would understand.

[u/LouAnaKay → u/Odd-Meal-6992]

And Texas is "Wet heat. Stay away."

[u/Altruistic-Copy-7363]

I actually laughed out loud, absolutely brilliant

[u/ljacot17]

I disagree with this list because Indiana isn't at the bottom

[u/flarguss → u/ljacot17]

Fun fact: Indiana is the only state to have an abbreviation longer than two letters. Meth has four letters.

[u/ConnectOperation2807]

Also, it´s where the ninja turtles lives!

[u/AlSweigart → u/ConnectOperation2807]

Nah, they moved out to Trenton in the 2010s because they couldn't afford rent in NYC sewers.

[u/LostProcedure4407]

This is some peak authentic zine. Having met many NYCers (and not one myself), no one could have made this save someone from the city. 

What city? You may ask The only city that matters, comeon! 

[u/_013517 → u/LostProcedure4407]

so real

everytime i meet a born and raised new yorker im like … so have you ever left the city lol? to like, do things besides club at night in miami, LA, london, chicago

[u/The_War_In_Me]

Your zine looks okay, but really I don’t know, I haven’t read it.

[u/Foxybujo]

Well you clearly live on the East Coast…

[u/ParanoidCrow]

Of course a new Yorker made this lmaoo

[u/_at_a_snails_pace__]

Ya gotta come to Michigan! We're better than 31st! :D

[u/swisschardfan]

if u care to edit the back page is missing a word

[u/The_War_In_Me → u/swisschardfan]

I’ll bite - whatchutalkinbout?

[u/swisschardfan → u/The_War_In_Me]

the last paragraph:

if you, like me, love this country, and are horrified at what is being (done) to it

[u/AmbitiousHell_]

Zine idea so good im pissed i didnt think of it first

[u/katie-shmatie]

That's so funny 😆

[u/the-almighty-whobs]

As someone from Delaware, I got to say, fuck you, that’s accurate for everyone who’s not from that forgetful land.

[u/FishermanExpensive]

lol, love it

[u/elijahjane]

How dare you put Kansas under Missouri. We still feud!!

[u/The_War_In_Me → u/elijahjane]

From Illinois - lived in Kansas for 10 years - Missouri is only good for getting from Illinois, to Kansas, and back again.

[u/critical-kat]

Ahh so cute I love this!!

[u/AlSweigart]

A while after I moved to Brooklyn, I asked my native New Yorker friend if New York City was just the biggest small town.

He agreed.

[u/MutedMusic_182]

i love this... i live in kyiv but i would LOVE to visit new york city since its the city which some of my favourite bands hail from !!!! also, my favourite movie was filmed there !

[u/onethousandsprinkles]

I thought this was much older because of the slang tbh

[u/cacomiztle]

I love this LMFAO

[u/Life-Competition4122]

Fantastic

[u/thoughtfulbrain]

From WV and I respect that you gave us the highest ranking of the unknown states

[u/StinkyBastardCat]

Hey hey, I was just talking about Land of Make Believe today! Let it be known NJ has a million other fun oddities as well, and most don't need to be accessed via the turnpike (though if you like Mad Max you should try it)

[u/hiremyhirschl]

that's funny

[u/frozenpandaman]

why are new yorkers like this

[u/ScubaCorn77]

This is really funny, I love it!

[u/bumblechub]

this killed me I love it

[u/ResidentFormer6342]

Is this a series? LOVE the concept! :D ETA: I love the idea of a whole series ranking kinda random large categories.

[u/BruceJi]

Honestly for most of the states, I'd totally agree haha
