I have a confession to make: I hate Connecticut. I hate it mainly because it is the state that lies between my home state (New York) and the state I grew up in (Rhode Island). I hate it because it takes forever to get through it, regardless of your chosen form of transportation. A bus ride to Providence advertised as three and a half hours takes six hours, because of traffic in Connecticut. A train ride to Providence advertised as less than three hours takes five hours, because of train congestion in Connecticut. A plane flight to Providence would probably be similarly delayed because of all the hot air that blows out of the douchebags in Fairfield County.
Did you know…
- …CONNECTICUT is actually an acronym for Condescending Opulent Nincompoops Navigate Expensive Cars, Their Indulgent Children Undermine Thriftiness?
- …the state motto of Connecticut is “In Burberry We Trust?”
- …Connecticut is home to more pricks than the Upper East Side; Murray Hill; and Short Hills, New Jersey combined?
- …the favorite hobbies of Connecticuters include tennis, bridge, and hogging the left lane?
- …the state seal of Connecticut includes a BMW and a polo shirt?
- …Connecticut is home to both Ann Coulter and John Mayer, making at least 10 square miles of the state the actual definition of hell?
- …Connecticut alcoholics’ beverage of choice after 8pm and on Sundays is mouthwash?
- …the top vacation destination for visitors to Connecticut is “how the hell did I get stuck going here?”
By the way, just for the record, I did a Google search of both the terms “Rhode Island Sucks” and “Connecticut Sucks.”
The winner? Connecticut, of course! 5,940 to 140. Among them, the Urban Dictionary page for Connecticut, with a post that embodies everything I hate Connecticut:
We are Mass. without the majorly annoying accents, and the Red Sox obsession(i don’t know if other parts of CT like the Red Sox). Houses range from a peice of crap being $500,000+, and a decent/nice house being $1,000,000+ at minimum. The school systems are great, but people go to Prep School anyway. This state is simply amazing.
[...]
There is no doubt this state is rich like me. The infamous Greenwich, Westport, Weston, Easton,New Caanan, Wilton, Darien. This state rocks my socks. And for that girl who lives in Westport (i live in Weston) New Jersey is a dumphole, trust me (it’s not just CT-ers who think this). Flip flops are not worn in the winter though….. Nevertheless we preps just by association. I love this state, but i must leave it cause it’s getting on my nerves!it’s too perfect!
Like, ohmigod, can I shoot your WASPy face off?

CT: home of the khaki pant
why are CT cities so crappy? except Stamford.

Connecticut is terrible for driving, agreed! The Connecticut Turnpike has got to be the slowest-average-speed interstate in the U.S. When we drive to Vermont, it’s always Connecticut that slows us down, and miserably. And you can’t get around 1-95; The Merritt Parkway is just as bad and I-84 sucks, too. The whole interstate system in Connecticut sucks!

Chris, you’re a fucking idiot

Steve, You ARE the fucking idiot!
Friday, December 1, 2006 at 12:49 pm
I’ve solved the CT problem by skipping it. Drive up the Taconic in New York to the Thruway. Take the Pike across the rest of the Mass. While the mileage is more, it actually takes less time to get to most places in New England that way because CT sucks up time like a cheap whore.
Of course, if you’re going to Rhode Island you’re SOL that way.
Friday, December 1, 2006 at 2:46 pm
Well I know complaining is a big part of your schtick, but how about instead of getting annoyed at things you can’t change, why don’t you accept CT and celebrate its good qualities?
For example, next time you are all pissy on the endless drive through the state, why not take a road-side pit stop at one of its many heralded hot dog stands ? If a double chili dog from Dannys or deep fried Rawley’s weenie can’t cheer you up, then you, sourpuss, are a lost cause.
Oh, and I motion that you secretly love the Snaab-driving prepsters because their very existance serves to validate the hipster persona for which you strive to ascertain.
Saturday, July 18, 2009 at 12:39 pm
You are really fucking stupid – connecticut has no good qualities.
Saturday, July 18, 2009 at 1:20 pm
If you like connectifuck, then it is really YOU that are the lost cause, as well as the WEAKEST LINK, goodbye!
Friday, December 1, 2006 at 2:54 pm
Okay, I take the second part of my above comment back. You bag on hipsters here just as much as preppy kids.
But I hold firm re: the hot dog stands!!
Friday, December 1, 2006 at 4:37 pm
Particularly notable are the town names. My least favorite Amtrak stop while going back and forth to college was Old Saybrook. I still can’t figure out why the train stopped there.
Friday, December 1, 2006 at 4:39 pm
I mostly feel bad for Connecticut. I feel that it could have such potential if it could just get away from its residents. Sort of like when you’re in middle school and your mom won’t let you hang out with the latch-key kids because they’re a bad influence. ALSO, and wholly unrelated, that is quite the cute photo you’ve got.
Friday, December 1, 2006 at 4:59 pm
Audrey, it’s obvious that Amtrak stops there because it’s on the mouth of the Connecticut River, and therefore, a huge trading post.
Oh, wait, it’s the 21st century.
Friday, December 1, 2006 at 6:45 pm
i don’t like connecticut or new jersey either, but aren’t you a bit confused here? your home state is new york, but you grew up in rhode island? tell me where you’re from then. if you say new york city you’re an idiot.
Saturday, December 2, 2006 at 12:38 am
Remember, CT. is the home of LYME DISEASE!
Saturday, December 2, 2006 at 10:50 am
I like how everyone leaves out Hartford cuz it doesn’t fit in with the rest of CT at all haha. I’m from MA and CT was vaguely useful to us… for some reason the cheapest/easiest way for su to get to NYC was to drive a few hours to CT, then take a commuter rail to the city. Also, Hartford airport was only an hour from us, as opposed to Logan in Boston being 2.5 hours. So CT was sorta useful. In a “yay I get to use it but not live there” sort of way…
Saturday, December 2, 2006 at 10:58 am
Stamford is a DUMP. & it was the longest state to get through until Massachusetts, on way to Fenway Park.
Saturday, December 2, 2006 at 1:35 pm
The Connecticut river, its mouth and all other associated body parts are completely off of my radar. I had no idea. I stand corrected.
Rivers = boats. Oooh, boats.
Thursday, December 14, 2006 at 6:29 pm
Have you ever been to Bradley Airport? Ick. I used to call Midway in Chicago the Omaha of airports as if that was so terrible; well, Bradley seems like the Des Moines of airports. Or perhaps that would be too kind. Maybe the Boise of airports.
Friday, December 29, 2006 at 10:12 am
[...] the Booze Train Jump to Comments I talk a lot of smack about Connecticut. But on a 2-hour train ride back into the city, I wassandwiched in a middle seat on Metro-North between a guy who smelled musty and someone’s dog in a carrying case. The musty smell, when the breeze was blowing just right, made me gag. The dog, which I am allergic to, made me sneeze and wheeze. Luckily, I could seek solace in the the next car of the train: the bar car. [...]
Wednesday, January 24, 2007 at 3:11 pm
It’s baffling how strikingly different it is here in Fairfield (million dolla homes, popped collars galore) and Bridgeport (from what I know, poverty reigns supreme). I agree, it sucks in CT. I can’t wait to graduate and move back to NY.
Thursday, March 8, 2007 at 12:27 pm
[...] Oh, you also reaffirmed the fact that Connecticut sucks. [...]
Tuesday, February 19, 2008 at 8:07 pm
I have lived in CT, AZ, VA, IL, and NJ and would have to say CT is the state of pricks and more depressed and angry people than I have ever run into. I don’t think I can go anywhere where someone doesn’t have an attitude problem. Better yet I moved back here to be close to my family six years ago and have hardly made many friends. I am outgoing but not overly, I don’t think anyones ever invited me over except for foreigners. Everyone keeps to themselves. They say you gotta make the step go out and find friends and I have but not a single person has come up to me. As for my job, this is the only reason I am here. I would gladly move anywhere else.
I am also a musician, and wouldn’t recommend anyone to try to make it big here.
I totally agree with your philosphy. Take care.
Sunday, June 7, 2009 at 4:04 am
How were Arizona and Jersey for you?
Tuesday, April 29, 2008 at 2:16 am
CT is hell on earth. They stop selling alcohol at 9 o clock. Need I say more? What a mediocre wasteland. It makes Massachusetts look like the most exciting state in the country. And that’s pretty sad.
Monday, July 21, 2008 at 8:38 pm
Connecticut is the worst place to live in America , people are just nasty and stupid. If you don’t believe me drive on I – 95. and to top it off woman in Connecticut are a bunch of miserable bitches.
Sunday, June 7, 2009 at 4:08 am
AMEN, AMEN, AMEN!!!
Friday, August 29, 2008 at 4:20 am
Great, I’m supposed to be moving there in October. Thanks for the support. :(
Thursday, June 25, 2009 at 1:34 pm
Do worry Sarah…don’t pay any attention to Chris below. I’m a free-spirited outgoing nice guy. For the first time in my life I’ve never been so “depressed” since having to move to this horrible place (CT). What makes it worse is that the natives are actually proud of their heritage which includes rude people (they claim to be reserved – I call it miserable), some of the worst drivers and roads in the world, crappy weather and ridiculous living costs.
Thursday, September 11, 2008 at 2:20 am
Don’t worry about it Sarah, I’m from Connecticut and I love it.
I recently moved to Colorado and I hate it. I searched “I Hate Colorado” in google and then ” I Hate Connecticut” to see the differences. Connecticut is a million times better than Colorado. I can understand why some people dislike Connecticut. I do admit it’s not the most exiting state, and yes, a lot of nutmeggers (proper name for people from CT) are wealthy, but there are plenty of people in CT who aren’t disgustingly rich. I know CT has the highest average income per person, but if you think about it, everything costs more in CT, so it kind of balances out.
I’ve been to all parts of the country, and CT is one of the most beautiful states by far.
Thursday, June 25, 2009 at 1:25 pm
>I’ve been to all parts of the country, and CT is one of the most beautiful states by far.<
Well, considering you rate the, ahem, "beauty" of CT to be greater than most of the country or Colorado, you are a prime example of exactly what is wrong with people who live in CT – they are idiots!
Sunday, November 16, 2008 at 9:54 pm
Chris, I cant believe that you think Connecticut is beautiful and love it for that.
My brother moved out of this shit hole in 1993.
Yes, the landscapes are beautiful and the grass is green and the flowers are pretty. But people are much more down to earth and friendlier in Colorado. Here in Connecticut they are up your ass on the highway, then give you the finger. And If they do hold the door for you, they give you a look like you raped their Mother and threatened to kill them unless they held the door for you.
Its a miserable bunch of boring pricks here who are led by their corrupt leaders.
At least in Colorado you know who your leaders are…the Mountains.
Friday, December 5, 2008 at 10:02 pm
Everytime I see a Connecticut license plate in our town, I just expect them to be horrible rude drivers. Rarely am I disappointed. I’m sure they can’t all be bad, but most of the people I’ve met from Connecticut seem to have an attitude & think their shit doesn’t stink…a bunch of rich idiots!

I’m a CT native and have lived in NYC for a long time. While I have issues with CT, I have to say that NYC is to blame for most of your gripes. First of all, the rich pricks living and driving in southwestern CT are the Wall St money mongers from NYC who have come there to live and actually have property on which to place a home they own, rather than rent. Secondly, traffic is bad there because tolls were banned in the 80’s when truckers coming form NY and NJ fell asleep and actually crashed into the tolls, killing many people on numerous occasions … so, CT does not scalp its drivers to get the budget for widening its lanes (that is changing on 95 in New Haven). Western CT is beautiful and not like Fairfield and ghetto slum Bridgeport. Some things to remember are that CT is the insurance capital of the country, builds the nation’s only nuclear submarines and Sikorsky military helicopters, has a larger economy (money for fed govt!) than any state except California. I wish we had the Red Sox, The Patriots, our Whalers back on the NHL scene, Newport’s beauty and many other things we’re lacking. All we have are the casinos you all migrate to and the Huskies to earn the Big East any respect. Look, if its such a bad state, you can drive East on Long Island and swim your smug ass from Montauk to Providence. Be careful not to stop for a break on Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket where the real douche bags are. Just a tidbit to chew on, if it weren’t for CT back in the day, the North wouldn’t have had Colt, Winchester or Remington and you neighboring state dwellers would still be under British rule, have slaves because the South would have won and the West would not have been settled (not that I condone brute force taking Native American land).
Saturday, February 14, 2009 at 11:36 pm
Just change the license play from “Constitution State” to “The me first state”. because everyone here is for themselves first.
Monday, February 23, 2009 at 8:27 pm
While it is true CT sucks, so does almost everywhere else on the eastern seaboard. NY was cool but then a bunch of douche bags from other places like Rhode Island came to live there. In fact, as a new yorker that moved to CT, I was just happy to get away from people that called NY home when every NY’er hates them secretly because they destroyed everything that was once cool. New York was cool but that was years before you existed. Hipsters are the new jocks and if are one you probably also suck.
Obviously, Boston is still the worst city on the face of the earth but it is still probably better than CT.
Sunday, March 15, 2009 at 10:01 am
CT girls are the worse! Say Hi to one and you have a sexual harassment lawsuit on your hands.
Sunday, March 15, 2009 at 6:15 pm
Yeah, Connecticut sucks! I’ve lived in it all my life, and long to get out of it! The people are rude, there are no jobs, and the weather here sucks! We are lucky if we get two weeks of decent weather between the cold & the hot.
I cannot wait until I can see ‘Connecticut Welcomes You’ in my rearview mirror!
The CT motto should be ‘Last one out please turn off the lights!’
Friday, April 3, 2009 at 7:21 pm
I’m another “Mark” but instead of “I’m a CT native and have lived in NYC for a long time” I’m a NYC native and moved to Connecticut in ‘92 (I’m in my fifties.) Connecticut is kind of suck-ish, but I couldn’t deal with the intensity, noise, lack of anything resembling Nature, (except Central Park) etc, in the city. Also, I had to take self defense lessons just to survive there.
It’s my fault I ended up here, I really wanted to move out West, and still think I’d like living in CA. I just seem to have the personality for it. I live in one of those snobby ” CT Shoreline” towns where everybody drives SUVs and Hummers and has a soccer Mom mentality. I drive a beat up wreck and have a ponytail and generally thrive on all the hateful vibes I get from people during the course of a typical day. However, unlike New York, you can’t say anything to your detractors here, because if you so much as pass wind in their general direction, they will call the police on you. New York cops would never bother respond to the ridiculous calls they get from the SUV set that live where I live with their sense of entitlement and they’re “wholesome” Little League values.
I am not a gregarious person, but I had a lot more social interaction with people in Manhattan, although not always positive. However, people here are just totally hermetically sealed in their shiny Acura SUVs with their attractive, thin, WASPY broods. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to run around naked in the local supermarket just to shock people out of their incredible sense of complacency.
These people are just living in their Caucasian (yeah, where I live there are NO black residents) ivory towers and epitomize American materialism and mediocrity. And the cops and state troopers here are the worst. It’s definitely a “police state”. Don’t even think of speaking your mind here. The cops will be on you in a minute for “disturbing the peace.” Connecticut, a.k.a. “Corrupticut” is truly the “Weenie State”.
Monday, June 8, 2009 at 8:02 pm
Mark,
I also live in one of those snobish coastal cuntnecticut towns and I feel your pain.
You have just become my hero of the day
Sunday, April 5, 2009 at 4:12 pm
ct. does suck, i lived half my life in ct. i moved, to many to goody to shows assholes, the women suck, and pepole in ct. claim there children are on the honor roll, but will the no child left behind program, a brain dead vegy can make the honor roll, and they want high prices, for apartments, and house, i got a 3 bedroom thre bathromm , liveing room kitchen , gym, and inground pool for 850 a month in another state? you got to be a polo shirt, golf cource playing idiot to live in ct, as far as concerned, get rid of the state, it sucks, home of the ritch lossers hahah, and stop breeding idiot women, in ct. there takenig over hahahahah
Wednesday, April 8, 2009 at 11:56 pm
I am kind of amazed that these comments have been pouring in for two years…it should be proof to anyone that Connecticut really does suck! I grew up in that state and I would never, ever ever return. The taxes are crushing, the economy is miserable, the politicians are spineless, and the people are less than friendly. Connecticut is the closest thing to socialism that exists in the US. The entire economy is based on the taxation of business and people to pay for an army of overpaid state workers. In the end, no business wants to move there because of the taxes . The only employers are dunkin donuts, a casino, or the state itself. The state should be called “patheticut” and its motto should be the” Status quo state” because God has actually forbid that anything should change in Connecticut.
Thursday, April 9, 2009 at 8:36 pm
Connecticut law sucks.
Saturday, May 2, 2009 at 5:41 pm
ct. suck because there are no jobs, the pepole are rude, can’t drive, it’s a useless state i moved months ago from ct. much happyer, (won’t discloses where i am, don’t wan’t ct. following me) but ct. pepole suck, there taxes suck, everything about the northeast sucks, there dumb ass ’s
Thursday, May 14, 2009 at 9:00 pm
ct. really sucks ass, i moved months ago becasue of no jobs, i went south, and i’m doing great, the epepole are nicer, got a 3 bedroom 2 bath condo for 850 a month plus a pool, find that in ct. for 850 a month, spend twice as much, in a yuppy comunity, where they judge you , don’t gives 2 shit’s about you, this was the best descition i ever made, took me 3 weeks to get used to being around nice pepole down hear after liveing in a state full of starbuck drinkin, golf course yuppy stuck up judgmental, misrable pepole i ever lived with, fuck ct. and the pepole. hope it falls apart soon.
Friday, May 29, 2009 at 8:06 pm
Look. Connecticut does suck. The public employee unions run the state, the Democrat dominated legislature keeps raising taxes and spending and driving businesses out of the state. You can’t smoke in a bar, you can’t drink coffee or talk on a cell phone while driving. We still have blue laws that outlaw selling alcohol in stores on Sundays or after 9 pm on weekdays. The cigarette tax doubles every 6 months. However, we’re not all rich assholes. I was born poor in Norwalk and am still poor in Ansonia. Most of the really miserable rich douche bags moved here from New York. If most of us are still mean pricks the folks from Mass, R.I., N.Y. and N.J. are at least as bad. Especially Mass. Accents, nobody from CT wants to own up to an accent. If you’re a working class person from the south west of the state you probably sound very much like a New Yorker. If you’re from the eastern shoreline you probably have a New England accent. So, in short we suck, but so do you. And you couldn’t pay me enough to live in California.
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 at 3:19 am
I spent my entire life living in Il and Wi, and I can honestly say that I have never been more miserable as I am here. I live in south eastern Ct and all I ever hear or see of people is when I’m being flipped off or sworn at.
Back in the midwest it was rare to have a bad experience with people, everyone is more open and nice especially much more relaxed.
I only moved here to get away from my parents fighting and soon to be divorce (i’m 19, 18 at the time). I live with my grandma (a whole ‘nother story), and i have to say that i can not wait to get the hell out of here. All I’m doing now is saving up money to get out.
The people here need to get their heads out of their asses and get over themselves for once. There is absoulutly no reason for being as rude and concceed as they are.
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 at 6:22 pm
I never knew that so many felt the way that I do.
I am also a NY transplant. I have been in CT way to long and drive back and forth to NY on weakends just to feel normal again. The TV here sucks, the radio here sucks. There is no nothing opened late or on Sundays. Forget the alcohol there is no ethnic food here. You might be able to find a good chinese food resterant occasionally but nothing eles. You can’t even get a decent slice of pizza around here.
All there is, is Fast food resterants….no wonder everybody here is morbidly obese.
Wednesday, June 10, 2009 at 10:26 pm
Anyone in there right mind woudn’t bother liveing in ct, everything sucks there, there are no jobs, the pepole are pitty party idiots, and the government is screwy, and the ritch yuppy snobbs don’t want to go there, the pepole who are ritch are dumber than the rest, ct. is just a wasted space on the map, should be turned into a landfill for n.y and n.j.
Thursday, June 11, 2009 at 11:01 am
My mom is making me move to fairfield from new york. Fml
I HATE CT
But umm thanks for the reassurance, seriously I feel great about moving now! You suck
Saturday, June 13, 2009 at 5:29 pm
Don’t move to ct. worst mistake you’ll ever make, it’s run by ritch yuppy assholes, i moved from ct. months ago best move i ever made, pepole there are rude, they can’t drive, the women are offspring of ritch yuppys, if you look them the wrong way they want to sue you, ct. is just good for land fill for n.y n.j ct. is a uselesss state, fun really does come to die in ct. Move hear at your own risk.
Monday, June 15, 2009 at 1:04 am
Not all of western Connecticut is horrible (it’s generally considered a great place to raise a family). P.S. — If you think the food sucks, you’ve never been to Bethel. Try anything at La Zingara or the Opera House, sucka!
Thursday, July 30, 2009 at 4:50 pm
please, people from bethel are in denial about how new milford their crappy town is…
Sunday, June 21, 2009 at 12:36 am
Bethel is just like any town in ct, they all suck even the food, ct. sucks as a vaction spot to, ct. has no real major atractions, the zoozs sucks, but pretty soon ct. won’t be able to afford to keep that open, mistic sucks, you really got to be a screw head to think anything nice about ct. look at bridgeport, nothing but section 8 rasists, wetbacks and monkeys, the rest run by ritch yuppys, who don’t know how to cunduct buisses, it’s just a breeding ground for idiots that’s it
Tuesday, June 30, 2009 at 10:50 pm
50 years ago Bridgeport was beautiful-once the minorities moved in they destroyed it. I lived there 20 years and finally moved to the west coast. Completely different. Saddam should have gassed Bridgeport instead of the Kurds….
Wednesday, July 1, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Connecticut is the worst state in America. I grew up in NY, then moved to CT in my twenties, and that was the biggest mistake of my life. I first lived in southeast CT and thought I could enjoy going to the beach…what a bunch of pale, uptight people! Parents would not let their children play with other children who were sitting right next to them…they literally did not want other children touching their child’s one dollar sand toy! Then, I had the misfortune of moving to northeast CT…this is the most desolate area of the country. There is literally NOTHING to do there. The people are pompous for no apparent reason. Families there have a sense of entitlement which leads their kids to be the worst spoiled brats I have ever seen. I moved down south 10 years ago, and while it took some adjusting, I am happy here.
Wednesday, July 1, 2009 at 7:56 pm
TED AND MIKE CLEARLY YOU FIT IN!!!
CT is full of hill billy racist!!!
Forget the snobs and their class systems.
Its hill billy trash like you that makes CT all that it is. Believe me the “wetbacks and monkeys” are not the problem…..it is you and the rest of CT that is just like you!!!
In NY you can be from where ever you are from and are accepted. It is CT that can’t stand diversity and are afraid of their own shadows.
THE ONLY THING THAT WILL SAVE THIS HIDIOUS INBRED STATE IS THE FACT THAT YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS ARE SO CURIOUS ABOUT “BRONW PEOPLE” THEY DATE AND HAVE CHILDREN FROM ANYTHING OUT SIDE OF THEIR RACE.
Thursday, July 2, 2009 at 9:01 pm
Jackie, you talk like a tipical northeaster idiot, figures, it’s pepole like you the closed minded brainwashed yuppys that are the prob. i moved to the south years ago, now i’m just comeing in hear to laghe at you ct. northeastern idiots hahahah, at least i got a 3 bredroom condo for 850 a month, in ct. they don’t come close in price and the scenary is unmatched, so jackie enjoy your loser highe taxed life hahahah

Tuesday, July 7, 2009 at 1:29 pm
Well what do you expect? CT. kids are black wantabees that’s why they date outside there race, ct. is just a waste of land
Friday, July 10, 2009 at 11:50 pm
Connecticut is a complete shithole!! I was born and raised in the state and now out of it (Thank God!). Most of the negative comments here are right on the money. The state has no redeeming features whatsoever. Definitely the worst state in the US.
Saturday, July 11, 2009 at 11:17 pm
Why is Ct. still in buissness? it’s run by fogged minded, yuppy class retards, the women are stiff knecked bitches, and the there are no vacation atractions, unless you want to get killed on 95 with all the attitude test crash dummys ct. drivers, Ct. buissness are leaveing fast than you can blink an eye, can’t go to the the store in ct, without pepole giveing you an attitude, or gazeing over your shoulder, in line woundering what’s takeing so long, like they have places to go on there unipployment lol, everyone is missrable, anyone still liveing in ct. has to be an idiot. C.t is boring, there’s nothing to do but slave labor, 10 thumbs down on ct. thank god i don’t live there, amazing how a small state can eclose that many yuppy idiots in one space lmao.
Saturday, July 18, 2009 at 12:57 pm
Siskel and Ebert gave CT Two Thumbs Up……their asses.
Saturday, July 18, 2009 at 12:55 pm
I have been stationed in this hell hole for the past few years.
Aside from when the government threatened to close the submarine base in Rotten Groton, during which time EVERYONE claimed to “love” the military, they treat the military as nothing more than a meal ticket.
The Groton cops love to hang out around the base and ticket anyone that has a DoD decal for piddly reasons. I once got a ticket for parking in my driveway in base housing! (which is actually off base)
The health care here is terrible, and if you are a man in need of urology services, you are screwed.
None of the local hospitals has a urologist, and the CT board of health is hostile towards the idea of even endorsing men’s health care issues.
My son was born in New London, CT. The hospital refused to let me see my son born, as well as to see him until he was 2 days old.
However, my wife’s best friend got to see him born, as well as have the nurses take pictures of her holding MY son when I was refused access to him.
One does not get stationed in CT, they get exiled.
Few people exiled here like CT.
FUCK connecticut, and the retards that are too brain-dead to hate it!

I used to live in GA prior to joining the Navy and getting exiled to CT.
Life down there was much better, the cost of living in GA is a small fraction of that in CT.
For the most part, people in my home town (and the rest of the state) show that the term “Southern Hospitality” is not just words.
For example: if your car broke down in the South, chances are good that in short order, someone with a truck would help you out, either by towing your car to the next town for repairs, or by actually helping with the repairs themselves.
If that happened in the Northeast, you would be lucky if someone did not try to trash your car while you are trying to get help. (I have had friends lose their cars due to “Northern asshole(s)” ripping their car apart, or at least stealing some parts off of it.
Down south, $75,000 will get you a large house with a few acres in most areas, nowhere in CT will that get you much more than a glorified outhouse.
It seems that you are the uneducated one. Nobody here is a Douchebag for hating CT. It would seem that you are likely one for going to an anti-CT site and claiming to be better than everyone else for liking CT, with bad spelling and grammar to boot.

I used to be stationed in SC before getting exiled to Rotten Groton, CT.
Everything was better in SC: the people, the roadways, the food, well I could go on…
The hospitals a definitely better in SC than CT. The treat you much better there, and make sure your family is taken care of.
When I was stationed in SC, I broke my thumb after hitting a mud patch on my 15-speed bicycle after swerving to avoid some youngsters that had run out in front of me.
I was taken to a hospital and they took care of me in relatively short order, considering that all was wrong was my thumb being broken in 3 places.
They made sure that I was OK and had my wife with me for everything except the X-ray. They even brought my wife a soda when they brought me water.
When some prick struck my wife’s F-150 4×4 so hard that the front axle got bent (she was 7 months pregnant at the time, and we were well over 2 years into our exile in CT), she was taken to the hospital in New London, CT. The hospital staff wanted me to have NO PART in her time at the hospital.
I was told to go home when they wheeled her away to take her vitals. They then took her up to the maternity ward, where I was told that I was not welcome, as “it’s the WOMEN’S WARD, sir”.
I insisted on staying and supporting my wife, the nurse told me that I was like “any other man” and therefore “not capable of lending the support that a woman needs”.
When the nurses forced me out, my wife started crying over the loss of her support. They paged me when my wife threatened to sue over their kicking me out. They then sedated my wife. I asked one of the nurses for the location of the nearest drinking fountain. I was directed out of the women’s wing where I found a fountain. When I returned, I found that I was locked out of where my wife was at.
This time I had to threaten to sue to be allowed in.
The CT Board Of Health claimed that there was nothing that the hospital had done wrong by keeping me out of contact with my wife, and that I was over reacting.
They told me same when I complained about being forbidden to see my son born while a female friend of my wife was encouraged to participate in my son’s birth.
FUCK Lawrence and Memorial Hospital, New London, CT
FUCK the CT Board of Health
FUCK connecticut
Chris, have you been to Breck’s Restaurant in North Charleston, SC – much better food than the best shit-hole diner in ct
Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 5:05 pm

Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 6:40 pm
I am now sterile due to that same hospital (Lawrence and Memorial Hospital, New London, CT) treating me like a pile of shit.
To top things off, I now have ulcers from the constant pain I am in as well as the irritation of being stuck in this hell hole.
Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 6:41 pm
It is not nice to refer to these pompous asses as “scum bags” as it hurts the feelings of both slime and of bags.
Nazis are too self conscious to step foot in CT.
Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 5:20 pm
I had a freind that went to ct. to get an education at yale new haven ct. after collage, left ct. and got a great job in the south, becasue ct. had to jobs to give, and said ct. sucks, becasue the employers never called back, on a job , all they wanted was cheap labor in ct. and the employers didn’t know how to hire a good person if they wanted one,
Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 5:22 pm
True ct. does suck, filled with rude ass niggers and idiots,
Sunday, July 26, 2009 at 2:21 pm
I have lived in CT all of my life, except for the time that I moved to FL. Ct’s beaches are dirty, expensive to get in, and you cannot access them due to all the property being private. As far as sight seeing goes, you could see all in a one-two month period. Very boring to live here. The people in general are suspicious of all, love to stare, and judge. If you are lucky enough to have a summer at all, to enjoy, or an extended spring without tons of rain, then you are very lucky. The winters drag on, with gray skies, if you are not dealing with ice, then it is snow, or freezing rain. It is expensive to live here. Ct does not cater well to the needy either. Low income apts. are scarce, and very poor and inhabitable to live in. At least in FL they have many programs to help out the less fortunate. FL also has many places to see, and if one gets bored in FL, you have to ask why? I will be relocating to Va, next month, and will not miss the depression, long winters, and lack of things to do, here in the Constitution State. Even its title is boring!!!
Tuesday, July 28, 2009 at 12:27 pm
I do have to say, i was a torrist in ct. and never returnning to that dump again, talk about a waste of money, time the pepole are reatard zombies, the kids in ct. are carless spoil brats, you had to pay to go to there, slum beaches and paluted water, the pepole judge you even driveing in my car they pull up desides you and stare at you like the invation of the body snatchers, ct. is a very disfunctional state, and it’s boreing, expesive, and a joke, your state should have a welcome sighn LAND OF THE ENTER OWN RISK!!
Tuesday, July 28, 2009 at 12:35 pm
Well, it has been confirmed that living in CT has given me an ulcer.
Fuck connecticut!
Friday, August 7, 2009 at 11:38 am
Iwas just reading on WTNH pepole where mad over over a painting displayed in a store window, or risk getting an indecency citation, Come on people! this is how people are in ct. stiffed necked, lawsuit hungry, yuppy bastards and not to mention stupid worthless people are in ct. there just as bad as the state might as well put a Hitler sign on the welcome to conn. sign, when you enter ct. please have your mark of the beast 666 scanned on the way in or you will get killed.
Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 12:34 am
Something funny happened today. There was a fire at the hospital that is largely responsible for the pain that I am constantly in, Lawrence & Memorial Hospital of New London, CT.
Nobody got hurt, but man, IS IT FUNNY!
I just wish I could have been there with marshmellows!
Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 10:26 am
And is it just Fairfield (i’m from Florida so I don’t know that much about this state) or does all of cuntnecticut have poor taste in dining? I cannot find a decent restaurant anywhere but yet I can get charged well over $100 for mediocrity!! grrrrr!!! Oh, and people are right about the staring bullshit. I am from the south and we consider staring at strangers to be incredibly rude . And If I could get away with it I would scare some manners and sense into all these little ill-mannered snot nosed brats- these ct snobs are supposedly “raising”
Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 4:39 pm
All of connecticut has poor taste in dining.
There are far better restauraunts in Charleston, SC, and more good ones, than in the entire shit-hole called connectcut.
This is also evidenced by the fact that ct residents lack the good taste to each honor the second amendment and buy a gun, and to honor Darwin by shooting themselves in the fucking head.
Thursday, August 13, 2009 at 8:19 pm
Well, good news.
I am going on vacation, which means no having to put up with the shit-heads in ct for 2 weeks.
I am going home to GA. Although it will definitely suck ass to be back in ct when my vacation time is up…….
FUCK connecticut!
Thursday, August 13, 2009 at 8:36 pm
Good luck liveing in ct. i moved months ago, the pepole are judgeing hiprocrits, they have no taste for food only money, gov. Rell runs the evil empire in ct. no jobs, they can’t drive, i’m surprised you didn’t geet killed on the way into ct. the kids are spoiled brats with rice burners, and black wantabees, bridgeport, is the home of welfare cases and porch monkeys, they have slave labor there, that’s all they got, there’s nothing to do but go to dirty beaches that you have to pay to get in because the snobbs have the private beaches, you can go to mystic, but there over priced, and really nothing good to see, ct. is a boreing, useless stae, and should be a max. security prison. Just make sure you keep the resedance in there.
Sunday, August 16, 2009 at 2:02 pm
Learn to spell first off. No wonder you aren’t welcome there. I am no fan of my home state, yet at least I received an amazing education. You know it’s odd as well that you bash the same snobs who pay taxes to give YOU an education. It’s a dog eat dog world there.
Monday, August 17, 2009 at 1:29 pm
I agree with all the haters of ct. i’ve been to ct. once and the entertainment sucks, the food sucks, i wouldn’t want to be welcomed there anyways, who in there right mind would, Happy daisy sounds like a typical northeastern snob, they always got lame comebacks, and they get mad when they hear the truth. So looks like daisys education, is not up par. if that’s all you blame is spelling then you must know that ct. sucks is the truth, prob a brdgeport , porch monkey on welfare.
Monday, August 24, 2009 at 11:37 pm
Iagree ct. and the peole suck huge dick, i was reading in the paper, a kid got hit by a car and he had to drag himself to the curb becasue no one would stop to help, him screw ct. hope all you pepole die greedy fucktards
Wednesday, August 26, 2009 at 10:46 pm
I hate CT. My husband and I are stuck here for another year and then moving back to PA where people are nice, hold the door for you, smile, are friendly and know how to drive.
Thursday, August 27, 2009 at 2:07 pm
The worse place to live is in ct. unless you are an idiot, conn. Welcome sighn should be enter at own risk, I wasted a weeks vaction this year visiting that Highe priced boreing state, and it is true ct. pepole are rude, they stare at you , nosey little bitches, food sucks, the entertainment sucks, thank god i don’t live there, the state and the pepole are a lost breed, weired mo fo’s, never met such lowest standars in a state and pepole before, ct. is like that movie district 9,
Tuesday, September 1, 2009 at 12:34 am
Wow ct. reall does suck, just came back from visiting ct. tell yes never seen such a poor excuse for a state. The pepole no good lowsey stiff knecked idiots, your right the entertainment does sucks, and the food sucks to, i’ve been upstate n.y rather go there at least there food is good, ct. is like a roach hotel between the north and south, just get’s in the way on the map, should nuke the state and the pepole in it and let some of the southern states come in a make it right, .
Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 12:24 pm
Well, I am back in connectifuck from my vacation to GA.
Within 30 seconds of crossing the the NY-ct border, my 2 1/2 year old son’s allergies started to act up.
He was allergy free once we got into PA on the trip down, and was sneeze free for the duration of the trip.
The day after we got back, I got sick again, I am still coughing up blood and yellow stuff, none of the local hospitals wanted to do anything other than to tell me to take Motrin and drink orange juice. Just the prescription for someone with ulcers!
If this does not prove that connecticut is bad for your health, I am not sure what is.
It is fucking sad how bloated the cost of living is in ct. I shit you not, there are good apartments near my hometown that have large 1ba. apartments with a pool for $300/month. A similar size place with no pool or utilities here costs almost 5 times that.
The cost of food is much cheaper in GA as well, shit, the quality of buffet diners in GA is much better than in ct. You could feed a family of 3 at some places like the Wagon Train Diner in Whitesburg, GA for only $15. You would be lucky to get one person for only $20 in ct.
During the trip down, the car’s battery shit itself (stock battery on a 2003 Focus) while we were at a Waffle House in Chattanooga, TN. We had about a dozen offers of help in a rather short period of time.
One comment made to us was along the lines of “why we were not rude like all the others from new england that have stopped by”. Easy answer: I am not retarded enough to be in new england by choice.
If it was not for some corrupt politicians forcing the Navy to keep the Navy base in groton, ct open, so that the local people could continue to leech off of the military, I would have either been in VA, or GA for my home base.
I am not looking forward to this winter – last winter the local cops kept harassing me about my yard tractor and it’s snow plow. In particular, one of my neighbors down the street, a local civilian kept calling the cops because I would not plow her driveway for free.
The cop told me that I should just “play along” and plow her driveway. I asked her if she would do as she was telling me to, and her reply was “no”. -Hyprocrite!
Then the same neighbor bitch forced her husband to getting a small snowthrower. When said machine proved inadequate, she called the cops and complained about the noise my yard tractor made.
A more sensible cop showed up while I was plowing. The neighbor’s husband was using the snowthrower at the same time. When the cop realized that the neighbor’s snowthrower was drowning out my yard tractor, while the cop was next to my tractor and the neighbor was across the street, he went to her house and cited her for misuse of 911, and told her what I had said, that I would plow, but not for free.
The neighbor claimed that it was my responsibility to plow her driveway and sidewalks, as I have the capability to do so. I asked her if she would use her Ranger to help people move since she has the ability and therefore has the responsibility to help.
Reply “that’s what U-Haul is for.”
Here is the punch line: that neighbor pays half of what the Navy people here do for rent. Most places here have a “Navy Special Rate”, which is special only to the locals.
FUCK connecticut and everyone retarded enough to like connecticut!
Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 7:08 pm
Angery Sailer is right, ct. sucks major ass, the pepole are retarded and disfunctional, thank you angery sailer took the words out of my mouth .
Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 7:18 pm
Iagree with sailer, ct. is the home of the dumbass pepole, i visited there once and let me tell you never going back, frigin state and the peole should be killed.
Wednesday, September 16, 2009 at 4:33 pm
Wow i was woundering where to report about news about ct. lol, true ct. sucks, fun does die hear and then some.
Thursday, September 24, 2009 at 3:19 pm
Wow ct. does suck, never returning to northeaster slum again, got more respect from pepole in the south, pepole in the north are just ritch idiots, blameing each other, over stupid stuff anyways, THANK GOD I DON’T LIVE IN THE NORTH. to many idtiots.
Sunday, September 27, 2009 at 1:19 pm
Damn, this sucks. I live in CT. While growing up I had a decent time, never suspected the people around me to be as horrible as this message board has described. Then I grew up. I’m currently attending UConn. Rude, unkind, entitled, cold, people that don’t allow themselves to relate to others. The homogeneity that pervades the rich, white students at school is depressing and monotonous. They all wear the same thing(northface) and act the same. It sucks. I do not like how the people look (constant bitter beer face) and act (stuck up). This snobbery is unnecessary and I hate bearing it all the time. fuck. It looks like moving out of here is imperative. How is California, I hear the weather is beautiful.
Saturday, October 3, 2009 at 11:55 am
Yea i used to live in ct. i grew up there to, not all the pepole where bad, but i grew up in the 80’s and things where different then, people where more easy going and fun, but then again back then we didn’t have so many ritch snobs liveing in town either when they started to move in is when things changed, in ct you can’t even ad on to your property a fence without a nosey stuck up neibore wanting to make sure your not on his property line, or change your sideing on your house, without some snooby bitch, calls the town to complain they don’t like the color of your house to change it or get be forced to, i had to move couldn’t take it anymore, on a good note hear i’m going to school for computer networking and passed my COMPTIA NETWOK PLUSS 2009 N10-004 last week i’m now certifyed network tech. A+ and microsoft 270 next, yay my employer took me out to dinner for that, don’t think in ct. an emplyer would give such a personal reward like that loll.
Saturday, October 17, 2009 at 3:09 pm
Well i have to say i went to ct. and it does suck, why are white teens trying to be black? and as far as driveing i aggree they suck, and far as respect i agree they suck, why are ct pepole so unhappy? must be the lack of things to do and the unemployment can’t blame them, thank god i don’t live in the northeast, only the ritch idiots live there, i would never take my buissness there, to many employees giveing false info. on there certs, and pluss, most employers, don’t know how to hire anyone, northeast employers go by key words to hire not me, i give you a chance , if you don’t work out, or lie about your info. your out,
Saturday, October 17, 2009 at 3:16 pm
You wouldn’t like california, there doing worse then ct. do research on where you want to live
Tuesday, November 3, 2009 at 4:11 pm
No, ct is worse by far.
At least you get decent weather more often and have a better governor.
Nobody ever wrote songs like “connecticut girls”, or “connecticut dreamin’”.
Nope,
you get awesome songs like:
“Connecticut is For Fucking” by Jesus H. Christ and the Four Hornsmen of the Apocalypse.
Saturday, October 17, 2009 at 3:19 pm
You wouldn’t like california, there doing worse then ct. do research on where you want to live,
Sunday, October 25, 2009 at 1:59 pm
Here is another tidbit of why to hate connecticut and the retards that like it:
According to the state of connecticut, I owe them money because the person that owned the car that I bought here was late on his emissions test.
To top it off, the law enforcement here keeps trying to claim that despite the fact that my home state of record for the Navy is Georgia, that I “need” to get a ct license.
FUCK connecticut!
Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 9:50 am
Dear God, finally an article filled with truth and wisdom. I have wanted the earthquake to come and separate conneticut from the rest of the country for so long. I have to drive from RI to NJ twice a month to see the family. 95 has been f-ing me since the tolls when I was just a kid. It is the countdown state, watching the exit numbers, praying I will eventually get the hell out. I am with you on everything you wrote in the article, everything!
Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 11:44 am
I was reading in the news wallstreet warnned ct feds, to stop barroing money on certain investments or suffer higher interst rates for ct. pepole and the state, ct. is just a junkyard of spineless, dumb stupid, brainless ritch pepole with no direction, if you live in ct. by choice and want to live there you need a dr. fast, and the pepole trying to get out of ct. but can’t becasue there broke i feel your pain, like being enslaved in a prison camp. ct. just needs to fall of the map along with the feds running it prob. solved.
Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 10:12 pm
Here is another one:
I have a friend that has been in the Navy <6 months. He recently bought a used car and went to the ct DMV to get it registered.
Not only did the DMV tell him that the Soldier's and Sailor's Relief Act (something that eliminates DMV fees and taxes for a servicemember that is stationed in a state other than of their home.), they charges him almost $150 to register the damn thing.
They told him that if he did not pay the wad of cash to them, that if he tried to drive away, they would call the cops and he would be hauled away for driving an unregistered vehicle.
SCREW connecticut!
Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 10:13 pm
They told him that the relief act paperwork was not applicable.
Monday, November 2, 2009 at 3:26 pm
Yea sounds like ct. , say one thing means another. Anyone that likes ct. has joined the i’m with stupid groupe.
Monday, November 2, 2009 at 5:29 pm
Actually, if you are one of the retards who is braindead enough to like ct, you are one of the “Why have I not shot myself in the head for the benefit of mankind?” crowd.
Tuesday, November 3, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Sailer, since your in the navy, can you launch a nuclear sub. and fire 1. warhead at ct. just make sure the wind is blowing north, so the fallout takes out most of the northeast it’s useless anyways lol.
Tuesday, November 3, 2009 at 4:06 pm
Here is another bit of why connecticut sucks:
Years back, there used to be an on-base child-care center that was large enough and cheap enough to use that was used by many attached to various commands in rotten groton for child-care.
Then the locals complained and cried foul.
Now that service is no more, and it is not acceptable for Navy spouses to take turns watching each other’s children. Not according to the State of Connecticunt.
Nope, you have to use a “State Certified Child Care Center.” Which means that the person running the center paid quite a bit of money to the state to get their license.
Said centers are required to have contracts with their customers stating that the child will be in the center for a set number of hours per week, and at a set cost, regardless if the child is there or not.
Say the kid is sick and must stay at home, you still have to pay the “provider” for a day’s worth of child-care that was never rendered.
Changes to the number of hours/days that your child will be there have to be made 2 weeks in advance, and if you take vacation – tough. Even while you and your child(ren) are out of the area, you are under contract, enforceable by the state, to pay if the “provider” if he or she feels that they deserve money for work not done.
Oh, and about the military spouses, they CAN’T get licensed, as they are considered to be “transients” and are not considered by the state to be reliable enough to care for children other than their own. In short – the locals, and the state, do as much as they can to wring money out of the military.
Tuesday, November 3, 2009 at 4:08 pm
It gets better – the providers get 2 weeks paid vacation and holidays as well. It’s basically double damnation for working mothers, as you have to pay the provider for work not done AGAIN, and to either find someone else that can watch your child, or call out of work sick.
FUCK connecticut!
