Let’s delve into the essence of New Mexico. With the slogan “Cleaner than regular Mexico,” New Mexico proudly distinguishes itself from the other American states. This one is infused with a vibrant lowrider culture, where these customized automobiles rule the streets. If it doesn’t involve the beloved green chili, then quite simply, you are not in the Land of Enchantment.
Our lens focuses on a road sign in a rural part of the state, directing drivers toward the peculiarly named town of Truth or Consequences. Cultural pride, unconventional charms, and a touch of cuteness collide in a truly enchanting way. Just don’t start breaking bad, yo.
Nevada
This might be one of the weirdest ones yet. These three contentious vices are all legal in Nevada but lobsters are not? Things are very backward here. Nevada is many things and weird is one of them. Don’t forget how many nuclear tests were carried out here in the desert.
But let's face it, even the most puritanical individuals out there are interested in visiting Las Vegas at least once in their lives. Whether it is to reenact scenes from "The Hangover" or to simply check out a show of the Blue Man Group, everyone has a reason to visit the Strip at some point. This part of Nevada? Not so much.
New Hampshire
New Hampshire is an important stop on the presidential election route, which does not make any sense to anybody. Considering that nobody important lives in New Hampshire, why do we take into account at all who they vote for?
But we do hear that the Granite State is home to some pretty beautiful vistas, the perfect backdrops for some of America's most successful summer camps. And if Walter White would go to New Hampshire to change his identity and hide out for a year, then that's good enough for us. The motto of this beautiful state is "Live Free or Die," and we'd prefer to do the former.
New York
The Big Apple? More like the Big Pizza-eating Vermin! Behold, a colossal street rat adorned in an oversized costume, playfully indulging in a massive slice of New York pizza. It perfectly captures the city's eclectic spirit. Dating back to December 3, 2020, this whimsical scene showcases actor Jonothon Lyons, mesmerizing passersby in front of a bustling pizza joint.
While the photo captures the city's unique character, it's impossible to overlook the quintessential element missing—the distinct aroma of garbage, which has infamously permeated the New York streets. With its colorful characters and unmistakable ambiance, this snapshot captures the true essence of the Big Apple.
North Carolina
North Carolina may not be known for its quality school systems, but hey, they do have some great cigarette companies. It’s just probably not the place you want to send your children to get a proper education. But if we're going to be completely honest, all we can think of when we hear the name of this state is the classic song by the rapper Petey Pablo.
It goes a little something like, "North Carolina, come on and raise up! Take your shirt off, twist it around your head, spin it like a helicopter!" Great, now we can't get that little ditty out of our heads!
