The Daily Beast: Protesters Get Kids to Burn Face Masks in Idaho, a State With No Mask Mandate.

If only they would stay there and home school. 

I always wondered who came up with that phrase, figuring that Fred Schneider and the B-52s had picked it up from some hipsters in Athens, Georgia.  Turns out that they seem to get credit for coining the term.

From Wikipedia:

The B-52's are from Athens, Georgia, and never played a concert in Idaho until September 13, 2011, when they played at Eagle River Pavilion in Eagle, Idaho. In preparation of the event, the Idaho Statesman interviewed Fred Schneider about the song's meaning. "Idaho is pretty mysterious to all of us," he said. "I know it's a beautiful state, but then I know there's also a lot of crazy right-wingers and all that stuff. ...The song's about all different things. It's not like a parody of Idaho or anything."[2]

I would like to think not all Idahoans are like that.

Those folks are potato heads.

I don't think I could point out Idaho on a map

Every shithole is shaped just like New Jersey. 

Rather be in Jersey than in Idaho, bradi

"People of Boise, SURRENDER!"

Since my only time east of the Rocky Mtn states was in the Newark airport in 1978 I have no idea about New Jersey except stereotypes. I've driven across Idaho on a couple of different routes and there is true natural beauty there. I hear there's natural beauty in New Jersey, but I can testify it wasn't at the Newark airport.
