[LynneSin]

Seriously, not drive through but actually parked your car and decided "I want to visit Delaware" for the day. There are plenty of things to do in our state!

[sniffa]

19. i have pLenty to do there

aLL the credit coLLectors send their threatening notes from there. i sure wouLd Like to track them down.

[LynneSin]

20. Let me guess - your real name is Tyler Durden

"The Fight Club" was based in the city of Wilmington.

BTW, the companies are here, most of the collector companies are outsourced to other states - usually in the south

[kick-ass-bob]

30. so here we go with the south bashing!

:eyes:

:grr:











:P

[LynneSin]

35. Sure, complain about Southern Bashing in a thread about Delaware Bashing

:D

[kick-ass-bob]

36. Massachusetts sucks. That curly piece of land is just stupid looking.

:7

[sniffa]

37. don't be jeaLous of homosexachusetts

[WoodrowFan]

the state motto for Deleware is "$2.00 per car, $1.00 for trailers."

[Zuni]

[kick-ass-bob]

5. you're from Philly?

:hide:

[LynneSin]

11. I think you should ban people who insult Delaware

:D

[JimmyJazz]

31. and take away their candy!

:o

[JimmyJazz]

29. me too! I think we went to the same high school!

:hi:

[WoodrowFan]

39. is there more than one in Deleware??

Didn't think it was big enough!

[JimmyJazz]

41. Very funny. It really is more than just a rest stop on I-95

:P

[Zuni]

46. Yep. There are poultry farms too

[WoodrowFan]

53. I hear even the poultry farms have TOLL Booths!

I'm evil. :evilgrin:

[Zuni]

55. but there is no poultry tax!

Delaware makes it's money charging people on the roads.

[Skinner]

42. Where'd you go to high school?

And what year did you graduate?

[JimmyJazz]

48. I didn't graduate from here, but went one year:

And, I am *not* telling you what year! :D

[LynneSin]

50. Oh come on - maybe Skinner was your High School crush or something

:shrug:

[JimmyJazz]

51. no - I am sure had we been there the same time, he would have been

but we weren't. I assure you. :o

[Skinner]

56. Cool.

I was class of '89.

[StopTheMorans]

:7

[trotsky]

6. LMAO

Oh my, you're gonna get it.

[LynneSin]

7. KISS MY SORRY WHITE ASS

:cry:

I'm not really from Delaware - I just live there now and I've yet to catch on to the little things about Delaware. But I've lived in the Philly area (which btw, DE is considered part of) for 15 years

[sniffa]

9. i'm sorry

you can aLways Look down on rhode isLand. :D

[LynneSin]

10. HEY!!! We're tax free in Delaware

so fuck you, you asshole!!!

:loveya:

[meegbear]

13. And what's your property tax rate?

[LynneSin]

14. Well, at this point I've yet to own real estate

But from the places where I'm looking it's about 1500-2500/yr. We're tax free because of all the corporations that are incorporated here. We're the Bermuda of the United States when it comes to favorable tax rates.

[GOPisEvil]

18. That's why your roads suck!

</Susie>

[LynneSin]

34. Like I want to live in a state where I pay taxes on Underwear & TP

anyhow, she's in a part of the state where you make one wrong turn and you're either at a Klan rally or Crank Lab (probably run by the Klan)

[stellanoir]

15. now my puppy will really gleefully pee even more

plentifully on you and your god forsaken institution !!!

Stop busting RI.

We're way too flaky and truly can't handle it.

[sniffa]

17. i Love rhode isLand

best fLesh-bars in the US. :D

cheaters being my favorite.

[stellanoir]

21. woh

I met the dude who owns that place. ewwwww. If you had you'd probably never patronize the place again. yuck. Then again, one never knows.

[sniffa]

22. p'shaw

'anything for a doLLar' rings true there. :D

[stellanoir]

23. so I've heard

Next visit consider checking out "Club Hell" on fetish night.

[sniffa]

24. i've wanted to go there

but it seems to be aLL goths drinking absynth and compLaining about their parents and how one day they'LL show them and move out.

[WoodrowFan]

25. you work for MBNA. or in a tollbooth. (NT)

[LynneSin]

27. What's the big stink about tollbooths?

I mean, every state on the East Coast has them and btw - Maryland has one on 95 - I don't see anyone bitching about Maryland. To be honest, we don't have that many toll booths in Delaware: 1 for the Delaware Memorial Bridge (but all the bridges connecting PA-Nj have tolls), one on 95 and a few coin baskets on the new turnpike that connects Northern DE to the beaches.

That's it - that's all. But Maryland has a 1-way toll on 95 that's like $5 and they have tunnel tolls which are part of 95 - but that's ok.

Here's an interesting fact: If you know DE well, you can easily bypass the DE turnpike tolls on 95. But if you try bypassing MD's 95 toll - you end up paying another toll on the alternative route (and it's a bridge - so there aren't many other choices for crossing over that river)



And MBNA isn't the only credit card company in Delaware

:grr:

[WoodrowFan]

28. tollbooths

at least in Maryland the lines for the toolbooths arn't longer than the state!

[LynneSin]

33. get over it - I never pay for that tollbooth anyways

Smart folks know the bypass and can scoot around it with the greatest of ease. Just cause you're a dumbass who refuses to us a map


(btw, I called you a dumbass with the greatest of love and respect :loveya: )

[WoodrowFan]

38. I just don't cheat!

I'm from Virginia, we're honest enough to pay the damn toll. Besides, it's my "grumble tax" I pay it, I'm entitled to grumble!

[Redstone]

40. Buzzzzz....Wrong-O!

Connecticut doesn't have any tollbooths. Neither does Vermont. Or Rhode Island.

So it ain't every state in the Northeast.

Redstone

[JimmyJazz]

32. or a corporate law firm!

:shrug:

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

43. A lot of my friends in Maine once worked for MBNA...

only briefly. They had telemarketing jobs. They all quit after a few months because MBNA sucks.

[leftofthedial]

44. when you have to go to Maryland to marry your cousin

[Zuni]

49. That is because Maryland believes in FREEDOM

Freedom to marry...(cough)your 1st cousin.:eyes: (ahem) well, how about that weather...

In fact, I found a website that endorses marriage between cousins
http://www.cousincouples.com/info/facts.shtml

[WoodrowFan]

54. I heard that on WIYY this am. (NT)

[jonnyblitz]

47. LMFAO!!

:wow:

[patcox2]

52. I lived in Delaware for a year one summer.

Know how to avoid the toll, too, but I don't do it; the toll is worth it compared to the pain of increasing your time in delaware. Besides, the route to Elkton takes me past the house of an old girlfriend I'd rather not think about.
