20 Reasons To Stay Far, Far Away From Idaho

Roasting Idaho, one potato at a time. Perhaps Iowa is calling your name instead?

Ahhhh, Idaho. Whether you're a newbie to the state or a lifelong resident, you've probably heard a few times that Idaho is full of nothingness. Just potatoes and sagebrush, and maybe a person or two - unfriendly desert folk who no doubt live off of the land like primitives, raising taters in preparation for the next potato famine. You might've even heard the stories that Idaho doesn't even exist at all.

I'm here to tell you... it's all true. There's nothing to see here, folks. Nope - nothing, nada, zilch.

Just a whole lot of beaut--er, terrible, awful, uninspiring...well, I think the photos speak for themselves. (Wink wink!)

1. Have you heard that Idaho is gorgeous?

2. Beathtaking, even?

3. Don't believe it.

4. Idaho is awful.

5. There's nothing new to discover.

7. No adventures to be had.

8. You'll never be able to find a moment to yourself, that's for sure...

9. Because there are no relaxing views whatsoever.

10. The sunsets are truly underwhelming.

13. Do you crave danger? Excitement?

14. You won't find it here.

15. And there are no secret spots to get away from it all.

16. The seasons just sort of blend together.

18. And the mountains? Puny and uninspiring.

19. In fact, you won't find anything here other than drama.

20. What terrible lives Idahoans endure... Save yourself the trouble and explore elsewhere!

Okay, so maybe we were being a little facetious. Clearly, Idaho is absolutely stunning in every possible way, and in every corner of the state. And you know what? We love our little slice of paradise just the way it is!
