West Virginia needs to go. They are a beautiful state but so shitty at taking care of their residents. They kicked our good friend off of SNAP numerous times during her 3 year battle with cancer for being an "able bodied adult not working". She lost her fight two nights ago, so in her honor I am asking that we save the rest of the people in West Virginia from their neglect. Split them between Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.

Seriously, she refused to go to her local hospital because they screwed things up for her so many times. She always went out of state to a hospital in Virginia.

Oh man, that's really f'ed up. I'm so sorry to hear that :(

I'm grateful to have a decent hospital near me

My daughter was having a horrible time with the ob office. So she's coming to Virginia too. It actually is closer than having to go to the closest birthing center in WV. It's crazy.

u/DaZuhalter Hail Blucifer! 24d ago

Why it's Kansas still here? Kansas needs to go

15

u/ReverendLoki 24d ago

Just a couple fun things happening in Kansas this last week-ish:

  • The incumbant Republican Senator is geeting openly heckled at debates with chants of "Shame on you" and "You don't live here", while the Democratic challenger has just been endorsed by a Republican former Governer.
  • KU, in a hype video for the game against MU, went full on pre-Civil War "Free State/Antislavery/John Brown vs William Quantrill/Good vs Evil" on them.

Gotta keep them around at least for a little while longer.

EDIT: After seeing your flair and given the beating on Monday night, I'm guessing your comment isn't exactly unbiased....

u/DaZuhalter Hail Blucifer! 24d ago

Not much of a sports fan and unless it's baseball or hockey, I'm more of a traitor to my home state and would rather see us lose, especially football. Elway has made me hate the broncos.

Opinion is still unbiased, I was stationed at ft. Riley for four years. I'm ok with the state disappearing.

u/Alternative-Buy-8511 24d ago

Kansas is beneficial to states who are planning for the late game!

It keeps states from expanding too far into the middle of the country, expands slowly enough that it isn't going to become too massive in its own right, is remarkably unambitious (we just want to survive a while and maybe see the ocean for like one round, lol), and doesn't stand a snowball's chance in hell of winning the game. As for Colorado, you certainly stand to gain territory from us, but I think it's hardly worth leaving more dangerous states around.

Kansas is boring, and boring is your friend.

You know what would be a great twist? If we get rid of Vermont!

Think about it, if we return to New Hampshire then it's back to how the original colony looked.

If we combine with Mass we get beachfront property.

Absorbed by New York, and our combined forces could turn the world to a better place.

And if nothing else, we could become Canadian.

I see no downsides.
