Social researchers, once again having nothing better to do, undertook another weird study. This time they wanted to compare the politeness of our fifty states.
The
research, conducted by WordFinder, collected Google Trends search data from
each state to determine which parts of America most often search the web using
polite words and phrases. In addition, they measured the most-searched
compliments and terms of endearment.
Montana
ranked as the most polite state.
Here
in Montana, 270,000 of our searches per 100,000 residents in the past year
included polite terms, especially “please.”
Dead
last in terms of politeness: California.
Californians
conducted a mere 10 searches including polite terms per 100,000 residents.
Well,
California, that sounds a little demanding, thank you.
