Clarifications provided upon specific request.

What are the main factors you used to determine your rankings?

Why do you think anyone gives a shit how you rank the states of this country?

I barely even know. I can tell why I like or dislike places, but there's no set criteria

Because I am America.

One might think if you went from Texas, to NM, to AZ to NV...the land, sites, people, weather are very similar, thus unless you have been to Houston, Santa Fe, Phoenix and Las Vegas...the similarities would make you rank them in the same range...i.e. 29-33?

I think West Virginia at 36 is a bit high...but at 41 is probably correct...

Awww what the fuck. I proofread it three times to avoid that very mistake ("hey did I list something twice?"). Now I have to figure out who I forgot. WVA is supposed to be 36.

Santa Fe > Flagstaff > Tucson > Phoenix > Any city in Texas (expect Austin, which is better than Phoenix.)

I want to see CH's list. He has a distinct hatred for much of America.

More or less I'm on board with that list. Arkansas is the worst fucking place. horrible.

NM is much different than TX, AZ.

how is indiana ahead of delaware. christiana mall, man.

If you know nothing about Delaware, you know all there is to know about Delaware.

that's an easy cheap shot. you don't know anything about north dakota, either. indiana is the real deal. it begs for apocalypse.

the delaware beaches are pretty cool in the summer. some fun crabshacks over there.

i would recommend jersey beaches over delaware's, outside of bethany. the beach is one of only two reasons to go to new jersey. the other is to get to new york.

North Dakota I am all too familiar with. W of Minot it's a oilfield, E of Minot it's a poor imitation of Minnesota. Minot itself is where a lot of nuclear weapons live.

The people there are mostly gold rushing former military who are eternally pissed they never got to kill anyone while in the service. Grand Forks is OK.

Delaware probably has the least appealing oceanfront of any state. Think about it. Maybe Texas is worse, but that's it.

I went to Bethany Beach a few times. Had fun! Better than roasting in DC.

it's like a lot of states like that. you pick your spots and it's pretty nice.

delaware also has some great golf courses.

Yea but pick your spots in ND vs pick your spots in, say, WY. At least WY has Yellowstone, Tetons and Jackson Hole.

Hawaii is 15 slots too low.

Wyoming way too low at 23. I drove through most of the states and I found Wyoming the prettiest. Plus Cody is a really cool old timey town.

South Dakota also too low. Lots of cool stuff to see there, Rushmore, Devil's Mountain, Badlands, Deadwood, Wall Drug!.

Wyoming's greatest strength (it's empty) is simultaneously it's greatest weakness (it's seriously fucking empty). Jackson, Laramie and a couple other little towns are fun but Rawlins, Rock Springs, Casper, Cheyenne... yyeeeesh.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

I'm picking up what you are throwing down.

It makes me sad that I feel like I've never been anywhere. My grandparents lived in MN and my parents vacation time and extra money went to visit them when I was growing up.
