If you're from the US, you've probably passed judgement on someone based on which state they live in. Sorry, but it just comes with the territory...literally.
A while back, Reddit user u/GeorgeVilliers asked people to share the stereotypes associated with each state. Here's what a few redditors said about every single one:
1. Alabama
"Bible-thumpin' rednecks."Â
—Duke_CheechÂ
"College football has overtaken these poor souls' lives."Â
2. Alaska
"It's made up of wild frontiersmen."Â
