Louisiana is the armpit of America.

[cstrunk]

Seriously, this place has more worthless trash than anywhere else I've ever been. And that's saying something since I now live in east Texas. I haven't seen a nice part of Louisiana yet.

But I do like their hot sauce.

uh....ok

Every been to Needles, California ? That is the arm pit of America.

 

[dtlantz]

I love Louisiana.

 

[mcblogerson]

I vote for rural Miss or Detroit.

New Mexico. Gotta go with New Mexico.

You obviously have never been to Northern NM. I would recommend the Red River/Taos area and then the drive to Chama. Now the southern part definitely competes. But so does my area of the Panhandle of Texas.

 

[theantiAIRBHG]

Admittedly, I have not. I drove through the southern part a couple times at night heading to AZ. Looked like a good place for scary movies to happen.

Maybe next time I will heed your advice and go a different route.

The Taos area is definitely the highlight of New Mexico. But it's a destination, not an area to drive through on the way somewhere else. You'll get slowed down a lot on a winding two-way road choked with traffic. Don't go to Taos unless you are going to Taos.

I don't like high prices at the gas pump. Thursday confessions thread? Ok.

 

[jrcisu79]

It may not be the cleanest place on earth, but I will say some of the nicest people I've met were in southern Louisiana. And the food is second to none. I also believe that anyone that went to Shreveport for the bowl games will agree with me.

 

[Knownothing]

Detroit disagrees with your statement. However I was at tue french quarter once and its one of the smelliest places on earth.sl smells like **** and garbage.

 

[CyFanInChiLand]

The Quarter does smell funky, but the food in New Orleans can't be beat. SE Louisiana is one of my favorite places, with New Orleans being an awesome city to explore, and all of the things within driving distance (fishing, camping, swamps, Gulf Shores/Pensacola Beaches, etc.) make it a great place to be!

Ottumwa...


Followed closely by Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama

 

[Naughtius]

I'll see your Louisiana and raise you an Alabama

I'll see your Louisiana and raise you an Alabama

I'll call with Panhandle Florida

What is there to do in that area? I'm looking for a trip to take this summer, and I love the desert.

I know I could google it, but that's what I have Fanatics for! :yes:

 

[Rural]

Having done time at Fort Polk, La, it resides somewhere lower on the anatomy than armpit.

 

[isukendall]

I vote for rural Miss or Detroit.

Second this, considering them the butt crack and armpit, respectively. At least Louisiana has New Orleans, something with culture.
