Someone's wife, mother, sister and cousin is finally gonna get that newfangled washing machine she's had her eye on.

again?

Well, the last big one there (Jack Whittaker) provided endless sordid entertainment for the masses, so maybe we'll get lucky again and have another hillbilly trainwreck to gawk at.

I think that you could buy West Virginia for that tidy sum.

Deliverance was filmed in GA/NC/TN tri state area, not WV.

Gonna to buy!!!!

Brandine and Cletus can move the outhouse indoors.

Oldiron_79: Deliverance was filmed in GA/NC/TN tri state area, not WV.

Deliverance might have been filmed in that tri-state area, but we all know where the film was supposed to represent :p

"gonna to"?

I'm Ned Beatty, so I'm not getting a kick out of this headline...

"Gonna to"?

Mopmonster: "Gonna to"?

Is this West Virginia's version of Xanadu?

I was gonna buy a ticket in WVA, so I'm saddened by my lack of a purchase.

Winning ticket for Powerball prize of over $275,000,000 sold in West Virginia. That's gonna to buy a lot of banjos teeth

FTFY, subby

But seriously, I'd buy land, complete with mineral and water rights, from the top of the watershed to the bottom. Save the farm from mountain-top removal, THEN get a washing machine with the money left over. No only are they not making any more land, they're busy destroying the land they've got. Stands to reason it will increase in value.

Is it me? I'm feeling a conspiracy to PURPOSELY greenlight headlines with typos in them

Just to rile us up

I mean, there has been countless ones this week, mine included (bows down in shame)

A conspiracy I says!

/either that, or the failings of the educational system is catching up to us....2 people can't spot a typo?

A brand new pickax for your brother/father/best friend/secret gay partner?

Did Jack Whittaker (new window) win again?

That's FARK's favorite lottery winner.

kaminariko: again?

Sonofabiatch. Could have been me since I bought a couple quick picks for it. Then I think, "I could have become a Fark thread trainwreck today".

Maybe it's a good thing I didn't win. But W Va? It's a beautiful state to take a drive around in but there's some seriously twisted folks out there. Actually every state has it's share of nutcases, but W Va seems to have a greater per capita number of them.

The winning numbers were six, 22, 42, 43 and 47. The Powerball was 16 and the Power Play was two.

Damn, it's just the same numbers that the voices in my head said. I should follow their advice more often.

they can even afford this really nice electric banjo!

Oldiron_79: Deliverance was filmed in GA/NC/TN tri state area, not WV.

hush, you!

"Dang marla we kang go todat fang-see olive place!"

thats the nicest banjo I ve seen. today, BUCKY KATT
How cool can you make that sound? I mean after you put a little bit of reverb and distortion on that bad boy?

How do we know the tooth brush was invented in West Virginia?

If it were invented anywhere else it would have been the teeth brush.

What's the state color of West Virginia?

Primer.

The only question I have is if a husband and wife from West Virginia win the lottery and move to Michigan, then get divorced, are they still brother and sister?

wow, subby and his friends know nothing about West Virginia other than their ridiculous and ridiculous stereotypes...must be Democrats

where do you morons live?

that should have been " ignorant and ridiculous stereotypes. "

libbynomore2: wow, subby and his friends know nothing about West Virginia other than their ridiculous and ridiculous stereotypes...must be Democrats

where do you morons live?

Quiet you...I don't want people knowing how awesome it is there, the rivers and rocks are crowded enough.

libbynomore2: wow, subby and his friends know nothing about West Virginia other than their ridiculous and ridiculous stereotypes...must be Democrats

Lighten up, Francis.
I'm so happy you could stop by and crap on an amusing thread.

/Tell aunt Momma and uncle Daddy that I said "hello".

Wow, I can't believe that the winner was stupid enough to buy a lottery ticket.

I would buy up some of the flattened mountains. You can get thousands of acres incredibly cheap. Afterwards, I would plant some fast growing pine trees on some of the less-desirable portions and wind / solar farm on the rest. Coal companies could make billions from this and look good in the process.

Price: $25m-$50m

MIguy: Wow, I can't believe that the winner was stupid enough to buy a lottery ticket.

THIS. I think?

Oldiron_79: Deliverance was filmed in GA/NC/TN tri state area, not WV.

Part of it was. Or did they just move a certain bridge to make filming more convenient?

Yeah. The winner obviously doesn't understand math.

libbynomore2: wow, subby and his friends know nothing about West Virginia other than their ridiculous and ridiculous stereotypes...must be Democrats

where do you morons live?

Subby lives in Iowa, so he has no idea at all what it's like to live somewhere that many people hold unreasonable stereotypes about.

And yes, I realize that my "localizing" of the headline wasn't quite "on". I really should have used "Gunn 'ta" rather then "gonna to".

/common mistake, really

video man: A brand new pickax for your brother/father/best friend/secret gay partner?

In WV, that's one person!

I play banjo so I'm getting... oh never mind.

There's a West Virginia?!

Yes its been a big day for the lottery but it may be a while before the winner contacts us to claim the prize.

I just hope who ever bought the ticket still has it.

Is it just me, or do 60% of rednecks own a primer gray Camaro, and keep talking about getting it painted someday?

Dad/Bro??

My parents live in WV, and play when the pot gets big...

/i hope it's them
//i need a vacation

Someone's gonna get to do 550 cousins at the same time!

that will leave him with enough to buy one banjo and one washing machine after taxes.

.....waiting for you comics to make " amusing " comments based on black stereotypes.

oh crap....that would be intolerant wouldn't it.

wait, what????

You would think Farkers would come up with something better than recycled jokes about West Virginia, but then again most of them are not as bright as they think they are.

years ago, I was on my way to Santa Fe, NM for the weekend.
my friend's hot chica asked with great bewilderment,"there's a NEW Mexico?"
