ComedianColin Quinnhas written a very patriotic book that is slated to hit stores not long before the November election.
Here are some sample state roasts from the book:
TX
What is it about Texas?
I can give you my opinion, but Texas doesnt care.
They stopped caring what the north said a long time ago.
They are the capital of the south.
But theyre also the capital of the southwest somehow.
Ive talked to people from New Mexico and I go What do you think about climate change?
and they go I dont know.
Same with Mississippi: you ask them a question and they tell you, Talk to Texas.
Texas is the daddy of the south.
And daddies are a big thing down there.
In Texas they bond with their sons.
They take them hunting and give them initials for a name.
I understand Texas because Im from New York.
Texas has the same attitude as New York.
They think theyre doing you a favor by being part of America.
Its just how we are.
They are like the Midwest of the east.
They understand life isnt about words.
I used to think they were idiots up there because you cant hold a conversation with them.
But now I see its not that.
Its because they know conversation is bullshit.
MA
These bastards are really something.
And they were really into the political process.
Town halls and councils and sit downs and committees.
Even Tocqueville said it.
He said the average Massachusetts persons love of discourse brought to mind ancient Athens.
Overstatedis not the first time Quinn has roasted the country state by state.
Now its millennials waving fake IDs to get into SantaCon.
