Queensland.

Australia's petridish of stereotypes ranging from gap-toothed Dundee wannabees, sun-burnt tourists, an ulcer of a beach-resort capital, and a baked-in inferiority complex.

Wait, I think that's closer to Florida...

Yeah, I feel like Florida and Queensland have a lot in common. We don't have as many states though, so there's bound to be some blending.

Hasn't NSW taken the backwards crown over the last decade?
