I heard this joke from two different people today, from opposite ends of the state.

And the non-West Virginians on DU just won't get it!

You know why the coronavirus hasn't hit West Virginia? Like most folks, it doesn't know we are a separate state. Right now it's probably in Richmond.

You must have had a decent geography and/or history teacher in school.

Every West Virginian has stories about it.

"I'm from West Virginia."
"Oh, do you live near Richmond?"
"No, I'm in the state next door and 360 miles away!"

Surprisingly, I never hear that from Europeans. When you say you are from West Virginia, they generally start singing Country Roads!
