FLINT👏🏽 STILL👏🏽 DOESN'T 👏🏽HAVE👏🏽 CLEAN👏🏽 WATER👏🏽!!!!
Well I’m sorry but there’s a pandemic going on. That is taking importance over Flint. Sorry fam
@@abigailmills2603 Girl bye. Flint hasn't had clean water for years & it's being ignored by OUR government . Google, is your friend.
@@FallonFontaine I don't live there, but I believe that everyone should be able to have clean water to drink so they don't have to worry about getting dysentery or something.
this is the michigan girls best response
Abigail Mills you sound very slow
The most embarrassing thing about Illinois is definitely how many of our governors have gone to prison, not our style.
Lain M this is very true but our current governor is much better then the past 7 that went to prison and were corrupt
@@zachhollis5292 I agree
I am tired of the girl represent Illinois she thinks Illinois is just Chicago thats it
I was thinking the same thing! Plus, the state is going bankrupt.
I was going to say out government, our government couldn't decide on a budget for a long time and many college students had to drop out because of it.
*the most embarrassing thing about CA is that every RUclipsr or "influencer" flocks here and ruins the reputation of people actually raised here..*
the *_right_* answer
@I love Angelique seriously like bro some people are normal and were just born in California why is that so weird for people to understand
OMG I Know So True Tho 😂
*PERRRRIIIIIIIIOODTTTTTTTTTTTTT*
THIS !
The Florida girl should have said Florida men
That's the best part.
She has a point, Florida and elections have been a shitshow.
missouri rep said something about Florida and missouri being in the news for stupid stuff
I was literally thinking the exact same thing😳
Or stupid teenagers who go to the beach during this time
The New Hampshire girl really said “ppl say wicked a lot” and totally forgot abt our terrible opioid and heroin crisis...
Pretty much Maine too
Cade Lent that’s all of New England. It’s bad in Connecticut too
Poor mental health care system, too, though I think the state is trying. And road rage.
Also, saying ‘wicked’ is a New England thing not a New Hampshire thing
@@anniebyers2486 wicked is a massachusetts thing
I had never heard of a "K turn" until I saw this video, we just call them 3 point turns
Alli Penge I’ve heard both
Same !
same. also its not even true what she said...
I thought she meant the Korean uturn where they hit uturns at anytime or place. Look it up crazy
I lived in Vermont for 21 years and I've never heard of a K-Turn. I called it a Vermont turn-around. That's what it was called on the driver's test.
Alabama should have said “everybody thinks where incest” 💀
But that's not true, the question is about things that are true
Hmoro hat it says that everybody THINKS
@@childanywaysso7343 No it doesn't. The question is "what is the most embarrassing thing about your state". Just because other people THINK this certain thing is true about their state, doesn't mean it's ACTUALLY true
That’s what I was expecting lol
I was thinking the same thing, but the whole bear thing isn’t wrong 😐 kinda embarrassing

Let me know if I missed a state!
Nia Sarae you are a life saver
Yes life saver this comment I SOOOO underrated
Jordan Abigail and RIP KOBE, Thank you! It took about 15 minutes.
Nia Sarae i honestly would’ve given up after alabama 😂
Nia Sarae thx
THE JERSEY SHORE SHOW RUINED THE REPUTATION OF THE ENTIRE STATE!!😂
New Jersey's reputation was always bad the Jersey shore just made it worse
Hey the UK version ruined that for England a brief period too but now we own it - GEORDIE SHORE!!
Lilliana Kuball but like it’s iconic tho
That show was the worst thing to ever happen to my hometown.
@@angles423 we had a pretty good reputation before it,
Illinois girl saying that midwesterners can’t dress as she wears the most hideous outfit I’ve ever seen. So she’s real accurate
I was literally thinking the exact same thing and then came to the comments to see if anyone else said it
Why are you being so mean wth
It wasn’t that bad until the skirt imo but I’m Minnesotan so😬🤣
But that's not embarrassing for Illinois. She sucks as a rep and that's embarrassing
I mean, the midwest did try to convince me that leopard print is fancy.
For once, Washington guy has an actual answer that isn't just "COFFEEEE!!!!!"
ADaveO didn’t you know? That’s our one personality trait.
Everyone in Washington is made out of coffee. Funny buy true.
@@emeraldishere9755 No wonder you're all so woke!
I was waiting for him to say something about coffee!!!
lmao we are litterally the coffee state i swear
How about "50 people debunk the most popular myth about their state"
ADaveO I feel like some of them would perpetuate the stereotype of their state’s myth
Saying Florida isn’t southern. I can say Florida being unsouthern is a myth Florida well mainly North Florida is just as Dixie as Alabama, Georgia and Louisiana.
@@masonpyle5929 I've been all over Florida and I definitely agree. The northern regions of the state feel very much like the deep south, whereas the bottom stretch (Miami, the Keys, etc.) have a lot more Hispanic vibes.
@@adaveo8396 and central Florida is just "Little New York"
that got political VERY FAST y'all
Noah Aubrey Linus Sorensen I’m just glad nobody is talking about that in the comments. This place would turn into a cesspool real quick
Thats all people wanna hate on now days. Politics just bc its trending
Noah Aubrey Linus Sorensen I knew everyone was a democrat lol
Matthew Derohanessian This was filmed in New York. What did you honestly expect
@@yourfriendlyneighborhoodsm4708 Oh I thought it was filmed in California.
Cameraman shady af for that pan out at 2:35 😂😂😂
I noticed that, too! 🤣
Maryland girl: “we don’t have a great public school system” yeah we can tell
And she's the only person who has stayed for this long.
Maryland’s public education system is 19th in the nation
Tally Boy so she even got that wrong
NeonBlue Yes.
She don't represent us
‘no icecreams in pockets’
‘serial killers’
quite a difference in embarrassment
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love how the Colorado guy is wearing a New Mexico shirt 🤣
Same!
U took my comment lol
We are all basically the same over here Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico
Eve they are all the same except that Colorado is just a little more stoned
@@smilingkratos7384 the Colorado guy is definitely a stoner haha. He gets so excited about sandwiches and burgers in the other videos
The fact that influencers move to California and say, “I live in LA”, upload pictures of driving through Santa Monica or Beverly Hills, but actually live in Inland Empire or Rosemeads. Lol
For California, we have a huge homeless population that needs help! Especially in LA and SF. Sadly, a lot of people ignore the problem because it doesn't directly affect them. Its embarrassing how we as a society just ignore the problems that need the most attention.
mariwatersflowers ayyy especially how they deal with it, SF sends a lot of homeless more up north, especially to my hometown (nevada city, ca) and they don’t really handle it so now we just have a whole bunch of homeless people unable to get help
How was Florida’s not “Florida man”? 😆
Maybe because hating on men as a whole is sexist (even if it's just in one state)
SLiM M it’s not a hate thing. It’s a news thing. There are a ton of articles that start with “florida man does... “ and it’s almost always something ridiculous
Because we're proud of "Florida man" lol
SLiM M men are so sensitive LMAO you don’t even know what you’re talking about. ‘florida man’ is a meme
As a Floridian, I have to say that being embarrassed about voting issues is valid.
I think this is the most accurate the maryland women has been
She's a living example. Aaaaa.
And they are still 19th in the nation
She getting it together... slowly
Baltimore has bad public schools, outside of there we have the 2nd best public schools in the nation (1 being Connecticut)
Hudson Braue the education in the schools is great, it’s the lack of funding and poor conditions that the students are subject to
How does the California guy not say "Homelessness" or "taxes"?
Taxes is a political opinion of yours. He might be left-leaning, then he would support higher taxes.
How is the birthplace of Pepsi embarrassing lol. That’s actually a positive
No, it's embarrassing
its embarassing cuz coke is better
As a north Carolinian I'm completely confused?????? Pepsi has been battling coke for best soda in the south. Were definitely losing but were not embarrassed
@Regina Head wrong, Coke for life
@Intellectual One How much it sells doesn't say how good it is, it just says that it's marketing is a really superior one
Finally the Michigan girl gets one right.
But apparently, Flint's actually had water for a couple of years or so at this point... As in, it passed the multiple tests to meet to federal standards for drinking water..
i wouldve just said detroit
Oh! That good to hear I looked as well it does say that the water has improved. I still think it one of the many embarrassing things we Michigan has. And Detroit isn't that bad I most of the time if something dumb happens in Michigan it happens somewhere in West Michigan.
Her answer was actually better than what I was thinking!!! I'm in shock. I was thinking the roads are the most embarrassing thing.....or the Lions.
Detroit's water is actually much better!
Your Utah guy knows next to nothing about Utah. Just saying...
Rory Fellows Agreed
I mean he's right 🙃
Rory Fellows Hi Rory 😂 Agreed
Agreed
He's probably been here once
1) Utah is a whole state but 2) assuming he is talking about SLC, it definitely takes more than 10 minutes to drive through LOL. I ain't saying it's LA big, but it ain't small.
MANS REALLY JUST ATTACKED THE CINEMATIC MASTERPIECE THAT IS HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL OUT OF NOWHERE
3:53 As a european i came for something waaayyyy diffrent.
Hey all you americans stay safe during these times..Take care of eachother
In the summer of 2018, I took a mini trip to NYC. Someone tried to get me to sign up for their environmental program and one of her claims was they helped Flint get clean water. I had to correct her on that because yes, it is still a problem.
Oklahoma: “Joe Exotic” 🙊
he was the best thing that ever happened to oklahoma
Whoa , Hold on there sir . It aint all that bad . Hahaha yes I'm an Oklahoman
Can we talk about Michigan going off on the fact that Flint still doesnt have clean water. I know things are crazy right now but please look into Little Miss Flint and see how you can help. Shes only 13 and she's still fighting to help get Flint clean water.
You know the camera zoomed out on Illinois on purpose just to prove her point 😂🤣😆.
She shoulda just said politicians. 🤦🏾♀️
I thought the same thing !!!! Lol 😂
Florida should have said CAROLE BASKINS
KingOfTheHylians CAROLE EFFFIN BASKIN 😂
CAROLE BASKINZZZ
Killed her husband
@@gracekoralew wacked him.
@@noahmejia9342 she fed him to tigers, they snacking
As a Marylander I feel we have a pretty decent public school system. Of course there's room for improvement in the poorer counties but we're nowhere near the likes of Mississippi or Alabama lol so there's that.
Tempo4200 even when given a soft ball question she still fails. We are always ranked in amongst the top for education.
The stereotypical guy representing California is the most embarrassing thing about California 🤦🏽♀️
As a Californian, I like him.
The girl with the green shirt was so much better at representing us.
@@Mona-gp4qt whaaaaaat nah
100%
We need a new Californian to represent for us. He annoys the crap out of me. He’s never spot on.
I love Angelique yeah exactly
or the japanese internment camps
Ellie Kushelevsky sure
Why didn’t he just point to himself, he’s the embarrassment to us. Dude is pathetic, the last straw was drawn long ago for him🤦🏽♂️
Allen Vives I would agree with you!
Maryland girl missed the opportunity to say 'The Maryland representative of Condé Nast Travelee'
Well she was correct anyway.
Prins van Oranje In some low income cities, maybe, but in some counties like Montgomery are ranked highest for education in the country and I was kind of shocked when she said that.
Carson Switalski PG county definitely has a horrible school system
Maryland: most embarrassing thing is the lack of things to DO
Maryland ranks 15th in quality of schools nationwide. Even when she gives a seemingly intelligent answer, SHE'S STLL WRONG 🤦🏼♀️
Utah is trying hard to be a big city? The state. Really? And you can drive through in 10 minutes? Obviously has only been to Utah once.
Most embarrassing thing about your state
Florida: *_yes_*
Ohio really just said "getting our accent confused for a southern one" but completely forgot about how Ohio is a frontrunner in the opioid epidemic 🥴🥴🥴🥴 Another embarrassing thing about Ohio is that we're right next to *ichigan
The Ohio River is a contender too, IMO.
SilverGrenade1011 The ❌ichigan thing is definitely the most embarrassing. #GoBucks
Every city that’s not Cincinnati and Columbus is embarrassing
All jokes aside, I hope all these people are safe and sound.
“Our state animal is a bear and it’s illegal to wrestle one”-Alabama
Maryland’s should have been the crime and murder in Baltimore 😶
I LOVE that Arkansas Spirit in that Arkansas girl. Here in Arkansas we love our state....like she said WE OWN IT...flaws and all. ❤️❤️
Arkan-sass
I like how Connecticut is actually the thumbnail....for once
I know right! I feel like our state is always being forgotten so it’s refreshing to see that we’re being acknowledged!
Coco Taveras basically Charli d’malio put us on the US map
And with a nice picture to boot!!
Some of these answers are pretty embarrassing on their own accord
Who else just skips to the comments to see people dissing the Maryland girl?
I am not a chicken nugget She failed again.
The most embarrassing thing about Ohio is definitely the Cleveland Clowns.
Elle D. I’m a lions fan we know what it is like to loose
I'm a packers fan were sorry for beating you up
At least we have Ohio state football. We’ve only lost to Michigan twice this century. We could loose every game but beat Michigan, successful season.
Nebraska: uh we have farms and they’re spread out...
i mean maryland lady was an ok answer i guess at first but when i did research maryland is like number 6 for best state in public schools
Connecticut really said Fairfield county is the most embarrassing part of CT I’m screaming 🙌🏻
Fairfield country minus bridgeport they're too busy dealing with their own problems to have trust fund kids.
I just want to say that the New Jersey rep is WAY BETTER and appears to actually live here and know things about the state.
okay I've been fed up with NC guy for a while now but did he really just say the most embarrassing thing about NC was being the birthplace of Pepsi?? he's officially crossed the line. he's done now.
"The birth place of Pepsi"?? You have to be kidding me. They need to replace him!
Monica Grady right how is that embarrassing
The most embarrassing thing about N.C. is how we cancel school after only an inch of snow.
IrresponsibleTaco THANK YOU YES we freak out over the slightest bit of snow
He’s over really good and I like his opinions better than the last guy but Pepsi isn’t THAT embarrassing.
IrresponsibleTaco YESSS, not to mention the southern part of NC where I’m almost all the boys have mullets at my school which is pretty embarrassing
the most embarrassing thing about maryland is the girl representing it 😶
did the Ohio guy really say we get confused for southern accents, literally when?!??
The Cincinnati area's accent can sound southern to some people
Jess R ehhh I guess, but it’s so slight. The most embarrassing thing in our state is not people saying we sound southern, cause it’s not even a huge thing.
Jake Rumschik still though... I’m just saying that wasn’t the best answer
Honestly it makes more sense to be embarrassed about the fact folks in Akron call the patch of grass between the sidewalk and the street a devil’s strip. The accent thing makes zero sense
Midwesterners and southerners both sound twangy to me, so I can see why there is the confusion.
Tennessee: people think we are hicks
What about the meth problem or the Vols?
Me a Mainer: there’s like 3 black people in the whole state
Maine dude: Maine is actually the whitest state
Me: yup
The beginning...lol 😂
This jersey man is always on point I swear
Florida girl should have said the people
Yankee snowbirds
I’m just glad Oklahoma’s representative knows what’s up
I agree . She ain't a bad representative for Oklahoma . I normally like her answers .
Wicked is so versatile though! "Hey, that's wicked cool!" "We got a wicked nor'-easter comin'." "Wicked!"
Proud Indiana girl said Mike pence, she is pretty right on. On IUs campus, there was a dorm that put a “fire Mike pence” sign up in their room, and doodled another sign under it that said “into the sun”... shows how we feel
Every other state: S O M E B O D Y V O T E D D I F F E R E N T L Y T H A N M E
Maryland: “We don’t have a great public school system.”
Ya don’t say
Ok the Oklahoma rep is actually really good lol. She's been pretty spot on with all of these
3:33 There are more chickens in the entire World than humans (around 24 billion chickens).
Yeah, I was confused by that one. If there weren’t more chickens than people, we’d run out of chicken to eat!
Oh but what she didn't say is the smell of the chicken houses. Sussex County can be highly aromatic in the summer. Not just a regular farm smell. Maybe worse than paper mill smell (looking at you, South Carolina).
washington guy was wrong
the most embarrassing thing about our state is fifty shades and twilight
“Midwesterners dont know how to dress” -the women wearing a leather jacket on a white rose shirt with mint green skirt and I’m assuming it’s like one that goes to your ankles and is neither big enough or small enough
You gave her much too much credit for her poor grammar. She said, "Midwesterns do not how to dress."
as a utahn, the fact he didn’t say mormons is surprising to me
What were embarrassing people?
@I love Angelique Hmmm... polygamy maybe ?
I was thinking he would say that too
Yes, agree. Case in point, Mitt Romney.
Missouri... speaking the truth that is humbling to hear. Every single time!!!
Utah is trying to be a city? Dream big I guess
Is he talking about Salt Lake?
I think he was referring to SLC, but he wasn’t making much sense. I would have said the drivers, personally. I’ve driven in several big cities and Utah drivers are nuts.
@@rachele3334 he made no sense, the whole Wasatch front is 150 miles of pure Urban sprawl, I mean it ain't big like LA big but it sure ain't small
Roonil Wazlib Ya they drive at least 5 over the speed limit and don’t know how to use a signal light
@@jaromguymon8630 idk what's wrong with five over the speed limit because literally everyone in the state does that and it's very tolerating
Maryland is literally top 20 public school systems and she says it’s embarrassing
Adiv 23 well not everyone can be Massachusetts
@@neuroseptember1020 Like anywhere else, it depends on where in Maryland. For example, Montgomery County & Howard County Public Schools typically rank pretty high nationally. Baltimore City Schools are another story.
It’s 13th actually! :)
Lauren Weeks I said top 20
13 is top 20
In Utah, it is illegal to NOT drink milk. And it's illegal to carry a violin case without there actually being a violin inside it... Yeah, we're strange
In Oregon most people don’t know how to pump gas. I lived in Washington for a second so I can pump my own gas...but I sometime had to ask for help 😬
I can’t with Oregon anymore. I just can’t. Tonya Harding? Really?
Such a weird one especially since I tonya honestly made me really like tonya Harding and understand her story more
There are so many things. Portland being the Hipster capital (being so bougie) and being the representative of the state - saying as a Portlander.
0:56 golden 😂
I live in Michigan and the most embarrassing about our state is that there are a bunch of hockey players who are just jerks. I’ve had multiple encounters with them, staying at the same hotel, neighbors, friends friend, etc. their parents don’t care and so they do whatever they want. The rudest most disgraceful things. Because of this people could get the first impression that all of Michigan is like that. Which it isn’t.
At 3:08 the shade! Lmao 😂
Virginia: The whole central to southern part of the state. (Except for Richmond and VA Beach area)
I was good with PA’s answer, but it should have been the number of confederate flags you see despite being above the Mason Dixon
Julie Eyer TRUE AF OMG & the Heeny Balloon Boy family is form PA
We don't call it "Pennsyltucky" for nothing, you know.
I’m surrounded by poverty, homelessness, and so much more problems. Those in particular bother me because it makes us look bad.
That Iowa one tho 😂
Michigan’s is the fact that we keep losing to Ohio state 😒
makeup by Elfie Ohio State might have the brawn, but Michigan has the brains.
Ari Shagal TRRRUUEEEE
Ari Shagal, whatever you need to feel better about yourself 😉
North Carolina, what's so wrong about being the birthplace of Pepsi?
The New Mexico guy did not just do high school musical like that😧
Ikr I love high school musical
“Sometimes it smells funny” - Iowa... talking about Clinton? 😂😂😂
3:53 oh well..! So that's what you think is most embarrassing about Alabama...
Why is it embarrassing for Maine to be the state with the highest white population?
I love the Alabama guy
He's easily the most interesting
The most embarrassing thing about Illinois is that 4 out of our past 7 governors have gone to jail. After Obama left the Senate to become president, our governor tried to auction off his seat.
Lmao Cali guy was spot on
How is pepsi embarrassing about NC?
Gracie Finley probs a Coke fan 😂
Pepsi is gross
KookeRoo1997 there’s literally no difference between the two
Jofriko 🇬🇭 I don’t like any soda in general so to me every soda is gross
Missouri at 2:18 I’m out😂😭
Hannah I am confused by her answer. I grew up in Missouri and I can’t really think of any crazy news stories that happened there. Or crazier than the rest of the country, anyway.
YESSSSS! TELL THEM AGAIN! FLINT STILL DOES NOT HAVE CLEAN WATER! How is this still an ongoing problem years later?! 🤷🏻♀️
Florida girl bringing up politics rather than Florida Man as being the most embarrassing thing about Florida... lol
Florida literally could’ve said the news articles 😂
Right on, Wisconsin guy.
The thing non-Oregonians seem to think is embarrassing is the whole no pumping your own gas thing, but on the other hand we were the first state to do vote by mail, so hey!
