Delaware slapped with most “boring” state by Huff Post

DelaWHERE? The First State can’t get a break.

According to Internet stereotypes, Delaware is the most boring state in the U.S., The Huffington Post reports today.

This oh-so-scientific study was conducted by searching Google for a phrase beginning with “Why is X state so…” The search engine autocompletes with the word most commonly associated with that phrase. Read the full article here.

So, apparently, Delaware (tied with Nebraska) is as dull as ditchwater, but it could be worse. Tennessee and Louisiana are “racist,” according to the results, Pennsylvania and Connecticut are “haunted” and New Jersey is just “bad.”
