They're jealous of our lack of hurricanes, traffic and carjackings.

My issues lie with funding, if the stretch of road i drive on daily, was a house it would've been condemned already.

Have you ever driven almost literally anywhere in New Orleans? Your Protestant roads are probably superior.

My guess on more road funding (despite the fact that South La has really shitty roads too) is the volume of traffic.
I-12, I-10, Hwy 90, 190, 61, I-55, I-59, etc etc.

Y'all have I-20 and the accompanying interchanges, but there's just more through traffic to TX and MS through South La as well as local traffic based on a bigger population.

That said, for the eternal construction/repair projects happening, the roads down here are nothing to brag about either

People in South Louisiana have horrible genetics. It comes from being the descendants of a bunch of low bred Canadian criminals. That's why they are so ugly, short, loud and stupid. You'll find that most of the them never leave their fetid, oil soaked squalors and deem everything not from said squalor to be inferior. They are completely oblivious to the outside world. The bravest of the brave coonass may venture to Houston or Gulf Shores, but that is the extent of their travels. Their diet is atrocious. They are horrible stewards of the land; littering, defiling and raping it of its wildlife and natural resources. And to top it off their women are disgusting foul mouthed whores. The opinion of these mutant sub-humans should not be considered, much less valued. They are insignificant mutts whose whole existence is a farce. At best they should be pitied. At worst corralled into camps and isolated from the rest of the world.

The only good things about Louisiana are the food and being able to drink a beer in public sometimes..

and north Louisiana inexplicably shuns both of those things, while fully embracing the shite heap that is LA as a whole

which is why I hate Arkansas doesn’t go after more Shreveport athletes instead of so many New Orleans players. Way more likely to get the boys from up north than those guys down south

I'm convinced that the only reason that North Louisiana hasn't become a part of Arkansas is because south Louisiana needs the tax money. It sure isn't going towards the roads in North Louisiana. At least not the major ones that matter. Frick south Louisiana.





Because when someone not from here thinks of Louisiana, outside of Duck Dynasty, nobody cares about north LA.

No culture, vast expanses of pine trees, paper mills, and cotton fields. All found in other states.

Y'all are not unique, deal with it

A lot of People from north LA are fiscally liberal and socially conservative. The worst combination ever.

I live in Alexandria, I can confirm it is turning into a bigger shithole than I considered it before I moved here. I know what a shithole looks like, I am from Ville Platte.

Because people that live in cajun land south Louisiana ancestors got kicked out of two perfectly good countries.

They are jealous of people that live in North Louisiana because they only got kicked out of one.

That's the thing, there is no real reason to go.

Does north Louisiana have professional sports, major collegiate sports, or some big sporting event? No.

Does north Louisiana typically host big concerts or have some major music venue consistently reeling in big names? No. Those are typically held in New Orleans.

Does north Louisiana have some big annual festival? Jazz Fest? Voodoo Fest? Festival International? French Quarter Fest? Hell, Strawberry Festival? No. Not really.

Does north Louisiana have some pristine lakes, mountains, beaches, hiking trails? No. Not really.

Does north Louisiana have great hunting and fishing? Hunting, maybe. Fishing is certainly better in south Louisiana.

There really just isn't a reason to go.

An example from history as to why there's some cultural distrust:
The Murders of Mer Rouge, 1920s.
Mer Rouge was closer to South La in culture despite being in the Northern half of the state. Bastrop boys didnt take kindly:
Wiki article about murders of Mer Rouge

My man. I20 between Ruston and Gibsland is rough as a cob. But rest assured Benton-Brown will be the ones to fix at it.....again.

To answer your question, simply put, S La folk think they’re better than everyone else - they have a superiority complex.

Never considered Alex to be North La. Its dead center of the State. Its where the vegetation changes as you start rolling into S. La.

We always called it Cenla.

You coonasses are so right. You cannot get decent food outside of South Louisiana.

That seems to be the belief down there.
