> [@Ludovic](#): > > Are people’s attitudes in Washington anything like their attitudes in Oregon (where I’ve only been once?) While they gave good customer service – indeed, better than the superficially cheery yet lazy Southwest, they seemed just a bit grumpy about the whole thing. I guess it wanted to put you the farthest away possible? Anyway, the stereotype is that Seattle is full of [the grumpiest people](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Freeze) you can possibly find, I don’t know if that extends to Spokane. > [@blondebear](#): > > I’ve spent about 97% of my life in California, but the Mood Map says I would fit right in…in Georgia? I think I’ll stick to the left coast. Athens is made for hippies like you 😃 ---

There is no way I belong in West Virginia. The only way I can even stand living in (East) Virginia is by never venturing more than 30 miles south of the DC border. I changed some answers and got Montana. Why does this stupid test think I belong in the sticks??? I like the suburbs and I still have all of my own teeth. ---

North Carolina. I’m not uptight enough for Ohio, which is where I’ve always been. Aside from Ohio and western Pennsylvania, I’ve been to NC the most. I go there all the time to visit friends. ---

The short quiz puts me in Colorado, but I’d much rather be in California. The long version, oddly enough, does not label you with a state. It just gives a small graph that looks vaguely like a guitar tab. ---

I’m Maryland. I don’t really know enough about the state to comment much. I imagine myself as being suited to Washington or Oregon; nothing on the East Coast. ---

Looking closely in the accompanying article, I find: **"(Alaska and Hawaii were excluded because not enough people responded to the researchers’ questionnaires.)"** Well, I’ve lived in Hawaii, and I’m keeping it! :mad: Georgia indeed, grumble, grumble.
