Title: Louisiana: An Abysmal Hellhole
Post by: Vandy Vol on August 06, 2013, 03:12:39 PM: Researchers at the University of Vermont used the most scientifological way to determine which states were the happiest: by searching geotagged tweets for their use of happy and not-so-happy words (which I assume would include "fired," "raped," "shitstain," and "Saban," amongst others).

Hawaii was deemed the happiest state, with Louisiana being the least happy.

Also, Switzerland is like the mother fucking Wonka Chocolate Factory of the world. Meanwhile, people are apparently being forced to eat their own genitals in Hungary.

That was in 2008...a lot can happen in five years. Besides, don't argue with the Twatters. It's the most important thing on the innerwebs.

Yea, I bet that was just before John Goodman started doing tourism commercials. Before all the victims moved back.

Fact is, the south has a ton of black people and rednecks that are very poor. It is what it is. But among those in each state that are not at poverty level, how would it look? The upper 50-75 in Alabama may be just as happy as Colorado. Col has unreal low levels of ghettos and poverty. And very few rednecks/minorities.

You got me. Colorado was a bad example. We know exactly why they're happy. That John Denver was full of shit man.
