Mississippi is a state of the United States of America.

Missisipi is basically the third world. Frankly I love it. Barefoot people with fishing rods- comes straight out of Huck Finn. People like to drink in bars and party here, you should too. Lots of pills (painkiller type)- for some reason the doctors there prescribe them a lot, and everybody sells their prescription.

Missisipi is fucking cheap as hell. Wall mart is king here: after the hurricane it paid businesses not to re open.

Some places are kinda clannish, meaning both meanings basically- "people don't take kindly to strangers 'round these parts" and I don't know but I wouldn't be surprised to find some KKK shit some place unfortunately- this is country as country can get.

Missisipi people are fucking great, they aren't pretentious, they're kind hearted, and they basically are big fans of having fun- meaning specifically drinking in bars. And fishing. I hope you're not a vegetarian.
