I’m the serene, quiet Eastern Shore of Maryland on the East side of the Chesapeake Bay - the Hampton of DC. Where the true gay a-listers have summer homes (not that dreadful Rehobeth). Very charming towns like St Michaels and Oxford.

I'm Vaccaro's Italian Bakery. The Napoleons are fantastic.

R47 I guess you never been to Norfolk and southern VA. It’s like Florida with snowy winters.

Maryland might actually be the state that is most representative of the country with Virginia a close 2nd. Anyone else agree?

I'm "Homicide"

Life on the Streets, r74?

Yes

I think a red state would be more representative of this STUPID country, R73.

[quote]I’m the Lincoln assassination site which is now the home of the richest black county in America.

Lincoln was assassinated in Ford's Theater, which is NOT in Maryland.

Maryland and Virginia have plenty of red areas. But both will go for Kamala Harris just like they both went for Biden and Obama.

Falling down, falling down

Maryland Bridge is falling down

My fair lady

I'm the No Class State

I'm a respectable Baltimore matron who saw what must be the filthiest person in the world, a gargantuan female in a disgustingly revealing outfit, scooping up into her hand and eating fresh hot poodle droppings/drippings off the sidewalk, showing her brown teeth and tongue as if to prove her depravity.

I could'a DIED, hon.

I am Maryland's waist, the two mile strip that separates western Maryland from eastern Maryland. I-70 runs right through me. You take a short jog and you can start in West Virginia, go through Maryland, and end in Pennsylvania. Mapmakers make for me far larger than my actual size, otherwise it would look like Maryland was divided in two.

I’m the beltway. Ten percent of the cars are drag racers with modified mufflers that sound like rockets launching. A few of the cars were just carjacked in Virginia and driven over the state line because police aren’t allowed to chase past the state line.

I'm Nancy D'allesandro Pelosi! Bow down to the best Speaker of the House, bitches!

I’m Virginia drivers on the beltway driving like Ms daisy in the passing lane because they so used to that HOV shit.

R105 Prince George’s County is pretty damm big so that’s a fraudulent generalization. It’s like a million people there.

For all of the people that think Maryland is a liberal paradise, you should read up on me. Some really racist shit went down there.

R139 Maryland is often though of as the start of the north but we must remember it was a slave state who joined stayed with the Union as a slave state because Lincoln couldn’t risk it deferring to the Confederacy until the war was won.

Thought* of

R129, when people think of Ocean City, they usually think of the lower end of town, below about 15th street, which is honky-tonk and filled with fairly trashy people all summer. That’s the town’s reputation, and it’s hard to overcome.

The rest of OC is just a summer resort like any other. There are some very nice condominiums and townhouses with great views. However, it is completely developed, from the inlet to the Delaware line and from the ocean to the bay, and it’s a big place, so it’s overwhelmingly crowded in-season.

The biggest factor is that Rehoboth and Bethany have always been the preferred beach resorts of the DC upper-middle-class, leaving OC for the lower middle class of DC and Baltimore working class. People always look down most severely on the class just below them, and the DC upper-middle class has a loud voice in the media for obvious reasons.

P.S. In Maryland it’s “the beach”, not “the shore”, as it is in Philly, but your support for OC is appreciated.

The Mason-Dixon Line is the border between MD and PA, so MD is south of the Mason-Dixon Line.

Im a New York blue crab being sold at Maryland crab shacks. Hi!

I’m here because of dead zones in the bay. They are caused by agricultural runoff. There are fertilizers in the runoff, of course, and they also cause marine plants to grow. The blooms of these suck all the oxygen out of the area.

These dead zones kill huge numbers of blue crabs. So the Maryland crab shacks have to buy me and my brothers and sisters from the Hudson River. They sell us to customers who think they’re getting blue crabs out of the bay.

I am Pennsylvania. I am a but resentful because Maryland is even trashier than I am and Baltimore has fallen deeper then Philly.

R297 Maryland is not trashier as whole than Pennsylvania.

Maryland is like a less densely populated New Jersey—culturally, economically, educationally.

Pennsylvania at R297 briefly forgot the "worst of the deep south-like" region of the state in between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia that is far trashier than the trashiest areas of Maryland. You know, the areas that make good 'ol Pennsylvania a "swing state" in presidential elections.

R299 Maryland has far fewer trashy Italians than New Jersey. New Jersey had so many Italian immigrants that they literally brought corruption with them from Italy and reshaped the state into the cesspool that it is today. If you encounter a municipal court judge with an Italian surname you can bet you’re gonna get taken for a ride.

I'm special because I hvae jousting and fox hunting and lacrosse is played at the highest levels!

Girls, girls, can we all agree that Baltimore is more depressing than Philly?

^I live in Baltimore you bitch!

Pennsylvania at R297 here. If you want to know what trashy and depressing is take a weekend at the Pocanoe Pines.

I'm Snoop from The Wire!

I’m telling some white person in college Im originally from DC/Southern Maryland and they automatically ask me if my life was like The Wire 😂.

Teacake, you’re from Southern Maryland? Where from? PG County? Charles County? I’m from Montgomery County originally.

I grew up NW DC but obviously interacted a lot with the counties growing up and have mad family there mainly in PG.

I'm Maryland's blue laws (which are long gone). No hooch sold on Sundays!

I like and agree with the comparison r299 makes. I’ve lived in both places. Baltimore is to Washington DC what Newark is to NYC.

R311 By comparing Baltimore to Newark, are you referring to the fact that it smells awful and is full of working class trash?

R312 you are such a reductionist. He is comparing them as densely populated cities with high crime that have a few ritzy areas surrounded by more affluent suburbs and also close to an immensely more economically abundant bigger city.

[quote]Teacake, you’re from Southern Maryland? Where from? PG County? Charles County? I’m from Montgomery County originally.

Southern MD is St. Mary's County or Calvert County, not PG county!

I like MD - it's got mountains, a shoreline, cities and rural areas. It's known for blue politics, but there are very red pockets of MD (like Southern MD) who seethe in anger because they're overruled by the MD blue majority. The taxes are high, but the infrastructure is largely good (except when someone comes along and knocks down a bridge) and it has some of the best schools in the country.

R314 I thought southern Maryland was everything south of Baltimore starting with Laurel which then turns into PG county and then all the counties south of PG. Montgomery country is also considered because it’s adjacent to DC and PG.

Montgomery county* not country.

Western Maryland is basically West Virginia and the Eastern Shore is basically the deep south.

My town had a black side and a white side before desegregation and Civil Rights laws passed (which still lingered into the 70s and 80s).

R314 According to Wikipedia you are essentially right but also includes areas of southern PG like Ft. Washington and Clinton. Mo county is not considered— again according to Wikipedia.

I'm the state with the most places named "Chevy Chase."

There's Chevy Chase, Chevy Chase View, Chevy Chase Village, Chevy Chase Section Three, Chevy Chase Section Five and North Chevy Chase.

The area south of Baltimore and above PG County is not considered Southern Maryland.

In short, thank goodness for the sprawling DC suburbs in Maryland along with Baltimore's metropolitan area. Without them, the U.S. might have another West Virginia or Deep South-like state that the country doesn't need. The ones we already have are more than enough.

"I am the amazement that a topic as bland as Maryland got so many responses. DL must be crawling with Beltway Queens. "

I'm the amazement that a person could be so bland as to post that they're amazed that a topic is bland - without offering anything better of course.

I'm Salibury and I never heard of three-quarters of the claims on this thread.

R356 lol That’s cause the Eastern shore is South Carolina wedged in between Maryland and Virginia lol.

Even back in the seighties you could get a rowhouse in Baltimore for $1`

I've lived in MD for many years and while I like it, it seems like a place you go through to get some place else. It doesn't feel like my home, even though it's been my home for many years. I think it's likely because the area is so transitional with people coming & going due to the government/military, you step outside the metro areas & it's like Children of the Corn Meets MAGA and Baltimore (though it does have world class hospitals & some quirky neighborhoods) is like Urban Blight - The Gold Star Edition. MD's big claim to fame is crabs, but is dangerous to eat anything out of the bay these days.

Once more in English this time, R358?

I'm Indonesian crab meat sold at the Annapolis Giant! (Because the bay is essentially a giant toilet bowl and the crabs are declining)

I’m Chesapeake Bay Seafood House from the 80s.

I'm the horshoe crab! Even though I'm ugly, I deserve love too!

I'm the ugly ass license plate.

I'm Delaware, R363. Gimme back my (horseshoe) crabs!

My dad took us to Slaughter Beach Delaware one time R365. Someone was trying to sucker him into buying land there. It's basically a horshoe crab graveyard. The smell was horrendous and thousands of dead horseshoe crabs. We turned around and left after five minutes!

Funny -- I didn't notice.

R142: Rehoboth is hardly upper middle class. Bethany is a little more upscale than Rehoboth but neither is anything like Cape May, which draws more from Philadelphia.

R351 hasn't been down NY Avenue in 20 years.

They have a nice view of Harper's Ferry

It gives foreign leaders confidence in American incompetence when they are housed in shabby Camp David.

Controlled Demolitions is based in Maryland

I like saying Havre de Grace. So class!

R368 New York Avenue is huge. I’m talking bout right there when you first get off BWP. It is grimme as fuck at night. You ever been inside that 24/7 McDonalds? Lawd. Even right there by Gallaudet University. Things may have change in the past 10 years I guess.

I mean it’s not crazy crazy because there is a precinct nearby but there are some characters for sure. Think crackheads meets The Walking Dead.

I’m the smart native Marylanders who leave.

R373 et al, Galluadet is in DC and so is the McDonald's.

R376 right. That’s why I said the DC exit of the Baltimore Washington Parkway. That part of Northeast borders Maryland. For those not familiar with the area there is no division like a water or bridge or any official partition that separate most parts of Uptown DC and Maryland. In some parts you can literally walk up the block and then be in Maryland.

And this thread is about Maryland, Teacake, not D.C.

When I was kid in Maryland (Sassafras River) we’d hear booms and my parents always said it was Aberdeen Proving Ground. Is that possible? Is that the same as Controlled Demolitions mentioned in R371’s post?

I'm the last Arabber.

I'm the big cocks on those Polish dockworkers!

I’m Kent Narrows.

I'm the Tilghman family.

I’m Bulletmore.

I’m the perculator.

I’m the coworkers who live in Mo County holding they nose up when the company hosts events in PG, which has definitely leveled up in the past 20 years.
