Baltimore's cool you just gotta stay away from the extra post-apocalyptic hell zones and yell at people trying to clean your windshield.
MD, PA, DE, VA, and NJ all look like a walmart burned down and people squatted it.

I used to be a maintenance manager at an apartment complex when it got bought by some twits from Baltimore. When we were doing due dilligence and checking out every single unit with them they seemed incapable of dealing with the locals normally and had all kinds of weird rear end slang and poo poo.

The worst is what I guess is a question. Every resident we talked to they would go "How is?" Every resident would look at them like they had a third eye and go "What?" Then they would talk like a normal person and ask "How are things?" I tried to explain to them that nobody understands their weird dumbass moon talk (politely and in different words) but man it just didn't click with them. I mean come on dude, you're buying the place and gonna be dealing with local people a lot, maybe you should talk like a normal person.

Also shaking their hands was like shaking a floppy dead fish it was so weak.

I've driven through a lot of shitholes in my life but Baltimore is by far the worst

also if a gas station and a restaurant are located right next to each other in Maryland, they won't ever just combine their parking lots to make it easier to go from one to another, so instead I have to stop at a gas station, then drive up and down the highway just to get to the fast food joint right next to it, gently caress

I grew up near him, he was the nicest guy but kind of a weirdo. Was friends with his son. He had one bedroom decorated in Orioles stuff, one in Ravens, and one in Porsche stuff. Was really into superhero memorabilia, obviously.

He also had a South Park pinball machine in his basement, and xbox, ps2 and Gamecube

Anyway Baltimore is awesome if you have money and know where not to walk at night

You should go under it by boat. There have been several attempts at keeping the pilons from cracking. There's been many a rumor of replacement over the years but I'm pretty sure they're gonna let it fall

Edit: probably in rush hour traffic, during a backup because someone ran out of gas at the top

Housing costs are exorbitantly inflated due to government and military job turnover. People don't rent basement apartments for less than a grand. You can't take a direct route to anywhere, due to the watershed of the Chesapeake. Everything is fingers. You can't open or conceal carry a firearm. The state troopers are just profit generators writing up fix it tickets. In 1990 the blue crab population was 99% depleted from what it was in 1900. Now it's 99% less of what it was in 1990. The bay is on the fast track to being a toxic sesspool and I'm pretty sure that won't change.

Maryland is by far and away the worst state on the East coast. You're not allowed to buy beer after 8pm like we're a bunch of loving pilgrims, the fastest speed limit is capped at 55mph by law, and I keep seeing commercials shilling "University of Maryland University College Online" at 2am

You can buy liquor at 2AM at a drive thru on a Sunday in Maryland and the highways that aren't beltways are 65 or 70 MPH limit.

They drive an inch off your bumper doing 110 mph and don't have the presence of mind, like California drivers, to be able to merge, shift lanes, use turn signals and so on to ease the daily commute to the hell hole city center. They also won't, or don't, notice red lights until their ballistic rear end is squealing tires and skids trough an intersection anyway.

Now, with that being said, I have no direct experience with Delaware, so I will leave the opening of it being possible that they are worse.

But, Maryland sets a pretty loving high bar.

Phoenix is opening back up or just opened back up so at least we can get black out drunk down there again.
