My job moved down there and it was an absolute nightmare at every level. And I grew up in West Virginia, so my standards were already pretty low.

At least west Virginia is pretty. Y'all have some awesome natural beauty. Too bad it's fucking depressing

I know people who live in the woods of WV and commute to northern Virginia/Maryland for work. They seem to all love it, and I can’t blame them. WV is pretty.

Really depends on where you are. Parkersburg is ruined by chemical companies. Though the haze does create beautiful sunsets. All the floracarbons really accentuate the light.
