Is there a Doper in every state?

Hey, that’s our official New Mexico state song!

Just kidding; I love living here.

Texas is full of people who live there because they cannot figure out how to get out of it — New Mexico is full of the people who did.

Yeah, that’s what I meant to say!

(Thanks eschereal)

Witness protection?

I think the question of whether Delaware exists is a bit of a red herring. Look at a map of the USA. Delaware is clearly some sort of rounding error.

I agree. I mean, we’ve all heard of metes-and-bounds, but who draws a state border in a radius from a courthouse cupola? I mean, jeez!

Tripler
It’s true.

Delaware once existed, but it died. There’s even a Memorial Bridge for it.

Okay, time for a new strategy:

I sure hope no one from Delaware posts in this thread. No sirree, that would ruin everything. The last thing we want is for a Delaware Doper to post here and complete the list.

Some river upped its banks and plumb washed the whole patch away. They named the river in memory of the lost and gone state.

Delaware: The Atlantis of our times. I’m sorry, I was lying. And the corporations have been lying about it, too. If you went there it would simply be ocean. What untold technology must have been there for it to exist right at sea level like the legends say! And so flat - it must have been mechanically engineered with technology far surpassing our own. What caused it to disappear into the ocean before the dawn of our civilization, we will never know.

Well, it is right there in the name: Delawhere?

Hi from Delaware!

It’s nice to be wanted.

Thanks for posting and completing our list, Mongo! I knew Delaware was a real place.

OMG OMG OMG OMG…

Thanks for stopping by! Maybe you can settle this for us…does your state exist? :slight_smile:

Did you get Bumpershoot’s PM, or did **Dex **send you over?

Ahem… it’s Bumbershoot- or Mr. Bumbershoot to you! :wink:

Edit: I came so close to fulfilling Gaudere’s Law there- on my own user name!

Are you sure? :slight_smile:

Sigh… I even looked to make sure I had the shoot part right!

Sorry, Sir! :smack: I was still in a state of shock, in light of our glorious Delawarean visitor.

That’s okay- I almost spelled it Bubmershoot.

Oh its real.

If New York and Washington are the engine of the World, Delaware is the transmission.

Hows that for exceptionalism!?

Besides if you’re good you can pee into three different states right from the courthouse in New Castle. That’s how that round border thing came about.

yeah, well, you can pee into four states at once out n the southwest.

That’s an odd reward for good behavior, but I guess if it works, who am I to complain…
What do they make you do if you’re bad? :slight_smile:
