1. The fact that it's full of psychotic DuPonts?
That's one unstable family, right there.

2. Not to belabor the toll-road taunt, but
if you'll notice on their state quarter, Caesar Rodney is slowing his horse down as he approaches a toll-booth which is not shown on the coin.

4. Caesar Rodney had Syphillis
and btw, there are no tollbooths between Philadelphia and Wilmington.

Like I said, we have tollbooths to keep the trolls out. Pennsylvanians are free to come and go into our state along with Marylanders who know how to pass a simple IQ test (That test being how do I get from MD to DE without taking the 95 toll booth - if you can't figure that out we don't want your genes contimating our gene pool)

8. That's true about access to PA and MD
That allows Delawarians to go out of state to see Professional sports without expending a few extra bucks. Ingenious.

Per your post, would they not then be "trollbooths?"

And don't insult your friends from Maryland by giving them the "simple" IQ test.

15. I'm tired of North Carolina voting fricking repuke every year
Delaware is at least a blue state that has always gone democrat except it's one lone representative - a moderate repuke
