I actually spent a significant amount of time in New England; Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Jersey (I know NJ isn’t considered NE) and Although you meet assholes everywhere, I didn’t find any of them to be as rude as Cajuns (particularly the older crabby women) in Louisiana.

All of those states had more agreeable people and are more welcoming than Louisiana, especially if you’re an outsider.

Maybe it's because folks are drunk all the time up here, but I really don't notice it being any more rude than in the South. Stuff just moves at a faster pace and they aren't interested in talking for 30 minutes about the weather.

You must be pretty butthurt over the Navy not being able to sail or a troll with lackluster skills.

Real Cajuns are suspicious of outsiders, it is just the way they are. It isn't really rudeness IMO. But once they realize your a straighter shoot and not up to something they are the most welcoming people you will ever find.
