This survey ranks States for their pettiness. It’s obviously a highly academic and well-designed scientific study. People admit to lots of petty behaviours in relationships, while driving, at work, in friendships, on the sports fields, etc.
But what about you? Are you Tom Petty? What is your passive-aggressive behaviour?
Excerpt (from highly scientific study):
Alabama reigned supreme as the state with the “highest levels of pettiness,” according to Osborne’s survey, which revealed that 96% of respondents from there copped to being plagued with a propensity toward getting payback.
Nevada, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Illinois and Arkansas filled out the other top slots on the maliciousness list.
Conversely, although not a state, the District of Columbia is the least petty area in the U.S., according to the research, with 67% of respondents confessing to embracing the caustic characteristic.
I kinda knew Arkansas would be high on the list.
I don’t care how much it would help the environment, I’m not living like a refugee.
You don’t have to.
Boy, not only do they not have data on Hawai’i, they can’t even be bothered to acknowledge the state’s existence -
(Complete data was unavailable for Alaska, Idaho, Wyoming, North Dakota and Delaware.)
But at least those states were named! They didn’t even list Hawai’i, nor did they identify Hawai’i by name on the map where all the other states are labeled.
I must find some petty way to exact revenge …
If you won’t back down, that’s rather Petty.
Imagine how all those puertoriqueños feel…
if you push me into the great wide open, I won’t back down.
They could have at least done a Gilligan’s Island style “and the rest…”

Oh come on, It’s the last dance for Maryanne(Jane)
Ahh, here comes my girl.
Why thank you Burpo, didn’t know you cared.
I don’t know why they picked Tom to top the scale. I bet Richard is just as Petty as he was, if not more so.
I can be a bit Lori Petty at times.
From his high perch, where he was lashed to the rigging of his flagship, USS Hartford, Farragut could see the ships pulling back. “What’s the trouble?” he shouted through a trumpet to USS Brooklyn. “Torpedoes”, was the shouted reply. “Damn the torpedoes.”, said Farragut, “Four bells, Captain Drayton, go ahead. Jouett, full speed.”[29][30] The bulk of the fleet succeeded in entering the bay. Farragut triumphed over the opposition of heavy batteries in Fort Morgan and Fort Gaines to defeat the squadron of Admiral Franklin Buchanan.
Everybody’s had to fight to be free
I am all about Vice-admirals who have kick-ass quotes and spectacular songwriters
He is The King Petty.
