1. Nebraska is equally as boring

But when I was driving long haul I actually enjoyed driving through those states, at least when there wasn't a snow storm going on. That's easy money. Set the cruise and forget about it for six hours.

Damn, I actually miss it now. :(

2. Put a brick on the gas and you're all set... :-) n/t

[pstokely]

3. Not a Huskers fan, are you?

[Droopy]

4. Nah, I'm from O-H-I-O!

But I-80 runs right by Lincoln and I've been in that town before. It's a pretty cool place I guess.

[huskerlaw]

25. Naw...

Nebraska has towns along the interstate, at least.

A fun drive, it's not. But at least you don't have to worry about having car trouble and then dying of old age before anyone comes along to help.

36. I spent 3 days in Omaha and I enjoyed it

But I don't think I would live there. It would get boring.

5. Iowa.

Miles and miles of nothing but miles and miles...

[fizzgig]

6. after driving i-80 all the way across nebraska

iowa is a godsend

[pstokely]

7. The Midwestern Praire states appear to be the most boring based on this thread

[hibbing]

8. grrr

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr, guess just because I am a plains guy, I enjoy the view in Nebraska, even while driving along I-80. I will say Eastern Colorado on 76 is pretty gosh darn desolate....but yeah yeah yeah, I know you have your mountains eventually. Hehehe

I have loved something about the landscape of every state I have been to. Only a few left, and of those I know they have beautiful ones.

BTW, anyone here from North Carolina, what a beautiful state you have.

Peace

9. Wyoming is probably the most barren state

I think it has the lowest population. But there are some mountains and rock formations out that way. :)

[FunkyLeprechaun]

11. I agree

I think we saw ONE town and a gas station when we drove across it in 1996 to go to Utah for a convention (relating to deaf issues). Colorado was the most exciting I've seen, beautiful Rockies.

Seemed to take forever getting out of Wyoming. I was like, "Are we out of Wyoming yet?" Grrr!

The most annoying trip I've taken was a road trip to Italy (drove across France, Germany, and Switzerland before Italy) and camping out next to a lake..... which meant.... Midges! yikes.

42. Deaf issues?

Greetings from Colorado...

Check out my sig! :)

47. I've posted in that forum :-)

I went to a lot of Alexander Graham Bell conventions and that year the AG Bell convention was held in Snowbird, Utah 1996 (not for the past 7 years though, due to college and now moved to the UK). I had heard lots of things about Utah... and it wasn't so bad... in fact it was quite beautiful!

My last AG Bell convention was in Philadelphia in 2000 (a couple of weeks before the RNC convention, ugh... I had hoped our presence would hex them into losing!). For once, the AG Bell convention next year is close by my state! Would have made my parents' travel much easier!

13. Except for the beaches, mountains and waterfalls there's not much to see in NC :)

[stuntcat]

33. (woot)

most gorgeous place in the world :headbang:

[jmowreader]

19. Its beauty is diluted by the presence of some of its towns

For instance, Goldsboro has to be the shittiest town in America. Fayetteville isn't even that bad.

[fizzgig]

43. that drive along 76 kills me

and i hop off at the first "big" town

i've made that drive so many times and it never gets any better

[Yukari Yakumo]

10. Montana is usually frozen solid during the winter. {nt}

uguu

[zanne]

12. Oh come on...

I've never been there, but just about anyplace can be boring in the winter. (Now you've got me feeling bad for No. Dakota!)

[rug]

14. But for the toll booths, Delaware.

[LynneSin]

21. FUCK YOU ASSHOLE

:hide:

Anyone who have doubts about the wonders of Delaware come visit me and I'll show them to you.

Do you know that Bob Marley lived in Wilmington DE for years - worked at the Chysler Plant in Newark

[rug]

22. Oh yes, I forgot Bob is best known for his welding skills.

Delaware brings out the best in people.

:*

[SammyWinstonJack]

28. ...

:evilgrin: Ah yes, Delaware, tax haven USA.

[madinmaryland]

27. Great Response!

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Someone had to come up with Delaware!

[Adsos Letter]

45. ...holy mackeral...where'd my hat go...

:D

[bluedigger]

15. I drove across Kansas in February, once.

No need to do that again. Ever!

[zanne]

16. The state you grew up in.

The most boring city is also the one you grew up in.

[Burma Jones]

17. I'll have to go with Oklahoma

[ThomCat]

18. State of Depression, no question about it.

[skygazer]

20. The state of ennui

[EstimatedProphet]

23. Delaware

Lots of beach tourons

[huskerlaw]

24. To drive across? Nevada. No question.

I-80 or Highway 50 from Utah to Reno is honest-to-god the single most boring and uninhabited shithole in the WORLD.

Nevada loses the most-boring distinction if you're talking about Las Vegas or Lake Tahoe, obviously.

[mulsh]

26. California, there's like nothing to do and

I'm all, whatever, and like I mean it's totaly like boring and everything.

of course I've never been to North Dakota in the winter.

[Blue_In_AK]

29. Kansas

[blockhead]

30. That was funny. I forgot all about that one.

(the "eternal flame" is only two blocks from my house.)

[carly denise pt deux]

31. North Dakota, all year

Carly

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

32. Oregon.

[begin_within]

38. I've passed by that very sign

[SaveElmer]

34. Well to defend North Dakota...

I lived there when I was young and still have family there. Eastern and Central North Dakota are about as flat as can be...and is a bit boring...though there is something cool about being able to see the next small town 10 miles away like it is across the street. However, come upon a field of sunflowers(one of North Dakota's larger agricultural products), and it can be quite breathtaking...

Also, the badlands in the west are very picturesque!!!

[pstokely]

35. Part of the Badlands are in SD, aren't they?

[SaveElmer]

39. Yep...

In both states....

[philosophie_en_rose]

37. Idaho + Western Idaho

aka Eastern Washington.

[pokerfan]

40. The most boring state is

solid.

Liquid, gas and plasma have much more energy.

[Hawkeye-X]

41. My wife calls Colorado boring.

And she is from New York. I guess all the excitment and the thrills of NYC isn't just there in boring ol' cowtown of Denver....

:shrug:

[fizzgig]

44. i've lived my whole life in colorado

it's beautiful here but, as someone who doesn't ski, mountain bike or really hike, i find it kind of boring here too

that said, the weather is never boring and this will always be 'home' in some way

[MrScorpio]

46. Arkansas

Only Little Rock between Texarkana (No humdinger there) and Memphis

I thought I was going to die from boredom
