Alaska versus Montana

[J.A.Sucker]

Alaska is full of weirdos. Montana gave us Boris and Zee.


OK, so they're basically the same.

Very well stated. (re: Californicated)

Eastern Montana is way different than Western Montana.
Like Anchorage is not Alaska, but somehow is in that state.

My sister lives up in Anchorage and I visited there a couple of years ago. I was very ready to leave and get back to Montanan after a week there. And this is from a guy who always thought he would end up in AK.

Anchorage is a huge city compared to anywhere in Montana and was filled with far too many people who had weird attitudes. It was kind of like "I live in Alaska and YOU do not" kind of thing. Quite "snooty" for lack of a better word.

I would take living where I do in Eastern Montana over Alaska any day. But then again I am a bit different and I am sure a lot of folks would hate it where I am.

Oh, and for any Californians reading this, Montana Sucks, tell your friends! [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Eastern Montana? Man....that place does suck.

I would place Billings in Southeastern Montana.

Billings has Freeways that go by/around it.

Anchorage has one freeway, and it ends in downtown. One must go stop light to stop light to get through Anchorage and down to the Kenai.

Montana gave us Ray Zee (Ray is from Na Jersey), Loose Bruce, and the REAL Unabomber (from Lincoln - western side of the Rockies) Ted Kazinski (? spelling).

Anchorage gave us Perry Green - Alaska furrier.

Alaska, better fishing, more critters.

Alaska has the highest suicide rate of any state I believe.

Also, a freeway that goes through downtown seems dangerous.

I'll give the edge to Montana on this one.

I live in Fairbanks Alaska. If you can handle -45 and 18 hours of darkness then move here for sure. Also the girls are worse then Montana although to be fair ive only been to a couple towns there.

You get paid to live in Alaska.

Plus I remember reading that the gender distribution is very skewed, like 60% male, although not sure when those statistics date back to.
However, despite their debatable looks, I'm sure women in both states are so hardened and tough they really f.uck the brains out of you - which imho compensates.
