yeah, the majority of pa does vote democrat :lol:

northern pa is very conservative though, but its one of the most beautiful places ive ever been in my entire life

nearly untouched by humanity

edit: and honestly most of the gun toting rednecks i met up there were super friendly and down to earth and just enjoying life

The countryside is ridiculously nice. I haven't been out in it recently, I usually only get to see the stretch of I-79 while I'm going to school, which doesn't count.

And Amish people are pretty sweet, at least I think so.

some of the views on rt 309 when youre going to philly are pretty amazing

also, i think its 79 that goes to state college from my area? but holy ****, when youre going through the mountains its breathtaking

as for amish people, i dont know any personally, but i definitely respect their lifestyle, though id never be able to live it myself

[QUOTE=chrisbarnesfacialbongscar;17688216]the majority of the countryside is beautiful, and honestly i love the lehigh valley


so in other words, the majority of the people have different political views than you, therefor they must be dumb

also, most of those "hicks" do more work to protect the environment than you ever will[/QUOTE]

how so

[QUOTE=chrisbarnesfacialbongscar;17688201]girl talk is so ****ing gay

but whatever, youll admit this in a few years when some new trend catches your eye


philly and pitt are cool.

pennsylvania has **** tons of awesome wild life, mad abandoned industrial complexes that are awesome to explore and party in, lots of great hikes, so many great people, an awesome music scene, and just a great atmosphere.[/QUOTE]

Agreed with everything.

Nah, I-79 runs straight up along Western PA. I-80 is how I would get to State College, and that's a really pretty drive. I think I-80 runs through the entire state, so that could be it.

[QUOTE=cbmartinez;17688237]how so[/QUOTE]

well theyre against wasteful development for one

theyre against wasteful hunting, and actually a lot of the hunting done is for purposes of population control to protect plant life, as there's a scarcity of predators

I actually don't know any either, but that lifestyle seems sweet (minus the ridiculous conservative religious elements).

Most people I know from near where Amish people live say that they're all a bunch of assholes. Also, my mom knows some biker dudes that sell a ton of drugs every time they roll through Amish country. So I guess they like to party really, really hard.

Those red areas have a really low population density.

yeah, we watched a video on amish teens in my sociology class, and their whole coming of age thing is like, live life with other cultures and see if youd prefer the outside world or the amish world, and so tons of the kids get out of hand with partying because theyve never been exposed to it before

and then they get into meth because they live in poorer areas, where meth is more pervasive

and iirc a lot of the kids went back to the amish lifestyle to save themselves from contact with the substances that were ****ing them up

[QUOTE=cobert;17688257]Those red areas have a really low population density.[/QUOTE]

did i say anything about population density

[quote]wtf is in pennsylvania, you have a couple miles of civilization along the Delaware then the rest is wide expanses of amish people and bumble**** nowhere towns that produce idiots like justin and hismajestythepope[/quote]

alright

Dude I saw that thing about Amish teens, too. My mind was blown, I had no idea about any of that stuff.

people from pennsylvania also can't drive

My driving skills are krieg.

honestly, the majority of the people i see driving like retards tend to be people with jersey license plates


would justin and i be smarter if we based our opinions more off of what other people are into and think is right?

[QUOTE=chrisbarnesfacialbongscar;17688301]honestly, the majority of the people i see driving like retards tend to be people with jersey license plates[/QUOTE]

Backed hard. Those people are obnoxious as ****.

IM GONNA MERGE IN FRONT OF YOU AS FAST AS POSSIBLE WITHOUT USING MY TURN SIGNAL

hell yeaaaaah

I don't blame them. Meth is insane.

Never touching that ****. Everything I've read/heard/seen of it scares the **** out of me.

Also, two of my friends got into it in highschool and went from being happy go lucky dumbasses to aggressive meatheads in a few months.

Plus, I'm not very into uppers anyhow.

lol

I actually like a lot of the places I've been in New Jersey, it's just the kids in the hardcore and metal scenes that I've dealt with that I couldn't stand.

Except this kid Ricky from this shitty deathcore band my buddy Jake used to drum for, he's mad cool.

yeah exactly you people from pa drive like pussies, hismajesty don't you not even have your license?

and keep up the trendhopping thing, it's still funny.

jersey is full of dumb scenester ****s, i will agree the crowd at any given live show is a motley bunch of retards

We're not p[I]u[/I]ssies, people from NJ are just obnoxious as ****.

[QUOTE=cbmartinez;17688335]yeah exactly you people from pa drive like pussies[/quote]
lol

[quote]hismajesty don't you not even have your license?[/quote]
its actually on my desk right in front of me

[quote]and keep up the trendhopping thing, it's still funny.[/QUOTE]
its hilarious to me because you used to try and call me out on not listening to "real" hardcore, and how i said i like hardcore because it was trendy

and then it turned out i grew up on the music and you phased out of it after a few years

so like, because you're a pretentious douchebag, i'm going to continue make fun of you for it

when did i call you out for not listening to real hardcore? i have no recollection of this.

unless i called you out for listening to terrible generic metalcore. in that case, the way i see it, back then when i was listening to metalcore and emo ****, you were jocking terrible bands like august burns red or whatever. here we are now, i listen to different music because I don't like hardcore anymore, and you're still jocking the same miserable excuse grindcore and deathcore music

I'm pretty sure all scenes suck if you're not part of the 'in' crowd. It's all pretense, all of that **** about acceptance and unity. It's really just another set of standards to judge people against. So ****ing stupid.

**** the scene, bros.

for some reason random people ive never met gravitate to me and spark conversation with me at most shows i attend, and it really always surprises me because im never one to spark conversation unless i know a person

its awesome though because i love meeting new people, and i always appreciate open minded, kind individuals
[QUOTE=cbmartinez;17688368]when did i call you out for not listening to real hardcore? i have no recollection of this.[/quote]
all the time up until this past year?

[quote]unless i called you out for listening to terrible generic metalcore. in that case, the way i see it, back then when i was listening to metalcore and emo ****, you were jocking terrible bands like august burns red or whatever.[/quote]
august burns red hate is almost as trendy as august burns red

[quote]here we are now, i listen to different music because I don't like hardcore anymore[/quote]
which makes it funny to me

[quote]and you're still jocking the same miserable excuse grindcore and deathcore music[/QUOTE]
and thats the only music i listen to

thing is ill always listen to a lot of different styles of music, so closed minded, opinionated douches like you will always make me laugh and i wont stop making fun of you
