The Thrillist List of NoDak’s Biggest Douche Bag!

This is somewhat unusual from Thrillist. The guys that brought us the best BBQ in every state, the best dive bar and so on. Here, the website tackles the biggest douche bag in every state in the country.

I have to wonder what the ground rules are for this list? According to the website-

Some important ground rules. In this case, “from” means the state in which you were born, even if it’s not the state where you currently reside or with which you happen to be most associated. For that is an indisputable way to determine where someone is from, and also their point of douche origin. Also, you’ll notice there are mostly white dudes on this list. You do not HAVE to be a white guy to be a douchebag, but the entitlement and self-importance that often comes along with the gig definitely helps.

Being labeled a d-bag is insulting, but not too insulting I guess. As I go through the list, I did find some douche bags including-

• California - Spencer Pratt
• Idaho- Sarah Palin
• Maryland- David Hasslehoff
• Nebraska- Larry the Cable Guy

Ok, I'd agree with those. Others on the list include Oprah from Mississippi and New York, Donald Trump. Another thing I noticed is that most of the d-bags are white males? What gives?

For North Dakota, even Thrillist had a hard time finding a d-bag and noted that NoDak's honor person is not really a bag guy, just that the pickings are slim to none.

• Josh Duhamel- "He actually seems kinda cool despite having an incredibly handsome, somewhat punchable face, but honestly, the douche-pickings are just as scarce in North Dakota as everything else.
