I need to get the hell out of Alabama

At least you aren't in Mississippi or Florida.

Alabama is way worse than Mississippi or Florida in just about every way, they're just quieter about it.

Even the weather's worse. I've been in actual jungles that were less miserably humid than rural Alabama. And I'm jungles you get cool jungle noises. I'm Alabama you get tractor noises and the worst Lynyrd Skynyrd song on repeat

Hell, the unofficial mottos of Florida and Georgia are "at least we're not Alabama".

Florida and Mississippi just get more media coverage cause everyone's given up on that entire state at this point
