Let's settle this once and for all: Which is the greatest state in the Delmarva conglomeration?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

Is it:

1. Virginia, with its powerful toilets?

2. Delaware, with its multitude of toll booths?

or

3. Maryland, with the greatest surprise baseball team of all time that is destined for the World Series this year?

[Midlodemocrat]

1. Virginia. For one reason and one reason only.

I live here. :thumbsup:

[underpants]

48. YES!!!

that was awesome!

[TZ]

2. Maryland

With one notable exception, the cool people live here!;-)
Guess who the state embarrassment is?:evilgrin:

[Tommy_Carcetti]

5. Spiro Agnew? nt

[TZ]

6. naw...you know of whom I speak...

There are brazillion reasons why he IS embarrasing...Tony Romo, TO, he even likes DUKE!:puke:

[Tommy_Carcetti]

14. That's okay, his team is DC's team anyways. So it barely counts.

The Maryland NFL team to be proud of plays 35 miles north!

[madinmaryland]

24. Actually they only play there once every couple of years when

they come back to visit Baltimore!



:hide:

[Tommy_Carcetti]

26. Why is there a picture of Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Irsays up there?

:)

[madinmaryland]

41. Heh Heh!!

The Irsay's vs. the Modells!!1!!

:rofl:

[KamaAina]

28. Who is that??

He kind of looks like Eli Manning. I did hear Eli had an older brother who played football, but he had to quit because of a spinal injury. What's up with that? :shrug:

[TZ]

32. Would that be..

The Baltimore Modell's? (my family is from Cleveland and we have LOOONG memories even if said idiot no longer owns the team)

[Tommy_Carcetti]

39. You see, my dear turtlensue...

...that joke only works if said relocated NFL team actually retained the former team's name and history. ;)

[Mezzo]

49. Let's see...y'all get your team, its name, its colors, its logo, etc as soon as possible, while we

went without for FOURTEEN YEARS. Yeah, those are equal.

[madinmaryland]

9. That would obviously be Daniel Snyder.

:hi:

[TZ]

16. No...you are the Benedict Arnold of Maryland!

Rooting for Cowboys when you live near the Skins home, rooting for Puke when you live near the Terps...blahhhh! Oh well at least you don't like the Yankees...

[madinmaryland]

20. How can I be a traitor?

Maybe a carpetbagger, but not a traitor. I don't root for Duke except when the play North Carolina. Otherwise it's The Ohio State University!1!!

BTW, I rooted for the Cowboys when I lived just outside of the New York City area and also in Ohio. I still root for Pittsburgh in baseball, but that was because the Reds' fans at that time were all Pete Rose clones and annoying as hell!

:hi:

[TZ]

23. Carpetbagger..lol

Yeah I know you are good old buckeye. I just love to make fun of a Cowboys fan who lives almost in the shadow of FedEx field...:)

[madinmaryland]

33. Try working in Manhattan and being able to see Giant's stadium

across the river and having to deal with both Giants and Jets fans daily.

:ugh:

[TZ]

37. Good thing you never lived in Philly then...

You might not have gotten out of there in one piece...
(Sorry, JGD....):hide:

[madinmaryland]

44. I interviewed for a job in Philly about 24 years ago.

Basically, it was a free trip, and it got a headhunter off my back.

But no, I'd never move to Philly! Heck, I'd move to Delaware, if LynneSin let me in! Hey I even lived in NJ for a year. SUCKED BIG TIME!! My car got stolen and my cat ran away, all on the first night there.

:grr:

[lost-in-nj]

46. you are dead to me

dead......



Jersey doesn't suck.......


:cry:

just the part you lived in it sounds like



lost



:hi:

[madinmaryland]

47. The only good thing that happened during my year in Jersey

was that I met my wife and started dating. Though technically it was through a close friend in CT and she lived in CT. I ended up moving back to CT with her.

:hi:

BTW, I lived in South Orange a block from the train station. But you drive two miles north you could find a cornocopia of drug dealers hanging out!

[Pool Hall Ace]

3. Maryland, but of course!

[lost-in-nj]

4. New Jersey

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:



we don't have to be grouped together with other states .....


We are big enough on our own!!



lost

[madinmaryland]

Which exit????

:rofl:

:hi:

[Lyric]

7. Sorry, but we West Virginians are content to sit here and let Delmarva battle it out

for second place. The song don't say "Country roads, take me home, to Delmarva".

:hide:

[Midlodemocrat]

8. Coward.

:hide:

[Lyric]

10. Your toilet power doesn't scare us.

Just keep in mind where most of your Virginia flushing-water comes from. :P

[Midlodemocrat]

12. It should!!! It's powerful, I tells ya!

Otherwise, why would my nutbag SIL be wondering about it?

:rofl:

[Lyric]

15. That great sucking sound...

...the sound of a thousand Virginia toilets flushing with shameless excess of water. Virginia toilets, the energy-hogging Hummers of the restroom world.

I bet you don't turn off the tap when you brush your teeth either!

:hide:

:rofl:

[Midlodemocrat]

17. Do, to!!!!

A la, Barney. "When I'm brushing my teeth and having so much fun, I never let the water run. No, I never let the water run".\

How sick is that? That song is stuck in my head forever and ever when I brush my teeth and my youngest is almost 12.

:rofl:

[Lyric]

18. At least it isn't "Sally the Camel"

"Sally the camel has...TWO HUMPS!
Sally the camel has...TWO HUMPS!
Sally the camel has...TWO HUMPS,
so RIDE SALLY RIDE!
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!"

That one's from Barney circa 1993. Oh, the humanity. My brain will never be clean again.

:cry:

[madinmaryland]

40. She really impressed by her "toilet tornados" isn't she!!

So are my cats!!1!!

:hide:

[madinmaryland]

11. Sorry, but you guys are too busy putting up your

Hillary Clinton signs..

:hide:

:hi:

[Lyric]

13. What can I say? We know a good thing when we see it.

Like pepperoni rolls, for instance. There is no such thing as a "civilized" place if pepperoni rolls are not handily available in every convenience store and quick-stop.

[madinmaryland]

22. WTF is a pepperoni roll? Is that like beef summer sausage??

:hi:

[Lyric]

30. zooooooooooomgz!!111 You don't KNOW??? Blasphemy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepperoni_Roll

[madinmaryland]

34. Hawt Pockets!!1!!

:rofl:

[Lyric]

36. Ewwww, no way!

Pepperoni rolls are yuuuummy homemade bread dough filled with pepperoni, cheese, sweetness, and light--then baked until the dough is done. Hot Pockets are nasty, gluey, cardboardy things that I wouldn't feed my dog.

The More You Know!

:rofl:

[madinmaryland]

42. Uhmmm. That IS a Hot Pocket!!1!!

:rofl:

[JVS]

50. hot pockets contain sauce. these have no sauce. they are quite dry.

[TZ]

35. I never heard of them either..

and I've lived here most of my life.

[KamaAina]

38. Actually it says "West Makaha"

a beach town on O'ahu, as performed by the late, lamented Bruddah IZ.

19. Virginia.

Because you can get gasoline, beer, smokes, and fireworks all in one stop.

[Lyric]

21. I have only one thing to say.

ABC stores = automatic Fail

Also, fireworks were illegal (save for sparklers and snap-its) in Virginia when I lived there five years ago. Did something change?

[Midlodemocrat]

25. They're legal in certain counties. Not mine, but that won't

stop people from crossing into Powhatan to buy them.

The police really don't bother with the fireworks that much. I don't really mind them, but my dog HATES them, so that part sucks.

[Lyric]

27. Another Virginia quirk--do you guys have "lawn parties"?

When I lived in Rockingham County, every little township had its "lawn party" in the summer. Basically a community carnival, just with that odd name. I've always wondered if it was just a Shenandoah Valley thing, or if they happen statewide.

[Midlodemocrat]

31. We've had block parties in the past

Down in the cul de sac. Never heard of Lawn Parties, but just about everyone who lives here is a transplant, not a native Virginian.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

29. Stuckey's at US 301 and VA Route 3 in Dalghren

That place had it all.

[madinmaryland]

43. There's still a Stuckeys???

I thought they were long gone.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

45. No longer at that location.

It used to be a family tradition to stop there after our family crossed the Potomac into Virginia.

[JVS]

51. Virginia.

At 1:17 could you imagine him saying "For Delaware" or "For Maryland"? Never!

He could say "For Pennsylvania!" but that's not one of the options here.
