Couple Couldn't Wait to
Escape York

By: Anonymous

I moved to York, Pennsylvania when I was 14. I joined the navy immediately upon graduation from high school. I had no intention of ever returning.

Unfortunately, many years later, my husband and I moved to York from Louisiana in an attempt to find better jobs opportunities in the Northeast. We rapidly fled back to Louisiana, 8 agonizingly long months later.

I could go on for a 20 page tirade of how awful, dead, boring and insane York and the entire graveyard-of-the-soul known as Pennsylvania is, but I think anyone who's been there and left, understands what I'm talking about.

The people are incredibly rude*, obnoxious, xenophobic, ignorant and uptight. I would go so far as to say that the place has the most mentally unbalanced, unstable lunatics running around free than any other place in the US. Most of the young persons my age (I'm 32) have left years ago. The few who remain are doing absolutely nothing with their lives other than letting their souls become sucked dry by that ghastly place.

My husband and I agree that if the state of Pennsylvania and its residents were to sink into the ocean, it wouldn't be a great loss. In fact, it would reduce the number of disgustingly cruel people in the counrty. God rot Pennsylvania!

By all that's good and holy, stay as far away from that hellhole as possible. It's the most hopelessly backwards place in the US.

[*Editor's Note: We've noticed how very rude, even crass all of Pennsylvania is becoming. We assume that it's one of the effects of how conservative the state is becoming. Persons seem to have little or no consideration for one another.]
