Idaho and Wisconsin see to be the most attractive based on these labels...

Washington and Maryland are probably the worst

As long as Chicago Public Schools is in Illinois, Texas will NEVER be worst in HS graduation.

I can one up you bro. I'm related to the Butcher family. Google Jake Butcher (largest banking scandal in US history at the time - Reagan killed him by sending the feds in to seize every branch at once so money couldn't be moved. He did that as much because Jake was a political threat as anything else). Jake was flashy as hell and the kind of guy that would inevitably get brought down because of it. The funny thing about the Butcher scandal is that everyone was in on it and the shite they were doing (not having x amount of dollars in reserve) is now perfectly legal.

Well that explains Miles' awkward clap. Turns out the whole state suffers from the awkward "Clap".

For the SEC States
Alabama - Stroke
Georgia - Most sickly
South Carolina - Most Mobile Homes
Florida - Identity Theft
Tennessee - Corruption
Kentucky - Cancer Deaths
Missouri - Bankruptcy
Texas - High School Graduation
Louisiana - Gonorrhea
Arkansas - Worst Credit Score
Mississippi - Obesity

The whole list looks legit

My brother probably brought down the entire state of Arkansas' credit score.

I actually object to this characterization. I haven't had gonorrhea once in the last year, nor have several of my friends. Heck, most of us haven't had gonorrhea more than 3 times in the last 5 years.

I swear this state's awful but at least we're bipartisan, and colorblind when it comes to corruption/thieving.

Oh you remember that guy Blago up in Illinois who got busted trying to sell Obama's Senate seat? His brother is a republican in Tennessee and a big time money man. They got both sides of aisle covered.

North Dakota - Ugliest residents
South Dakota - Rape

So do the hordes of ugly North Dakotans cross over the border and rape their more attractive South Dakota neighbors, is that how that goes?

High risk of stroke is very much related to obesity.

ETA: One's risk for any sort of cardiovascular problem can be greatly exacerbated by being overweight, eating shitty food, and smoking. This why states with the highest stroke risks (as well as highest risks of heart attacks) are those with the highest blood pressure, obesity, smoking, etc. It's all connected.

ETA2: And of course poverty and intelligence are correlated to these issues as well. The poor and less educated tend to be less healthy than the wealthier and educated. It's a chicken vs. the egg debate, for sure, but the correlation is most definitely there.

Probably has to do with all of the mobile home "resort" communities and "camp grounds" around Myrtle Beach.

Nope. Not buying it. Mississippi has a coast too and it is fronted with multi-million dollar mansions.

I'm amazed any state could beat the state of Alabama in corruption or obesity.
