I was tempted to say FF for making me laugh, but he also complained to Uber, which seems ridiculously since they did their job. I don't think it is fair to blame them for this, although I'd hope the driver confirmed he really wanted to go that far as opposed to just saying "can do" and driving away.

It's worth $1600 to get out of WV.

he hates NJ obviously, there is no other way to interpret that.  Seems weird to me too, but here we are.  I mean, sure, I get it.  Probably a bargain at that price.  Just odd coming from him.

sorry man, I should have considered that possibility.  I was looking for a dig (because clearly you are cool with those) and didn't give you the benefit of the doubt.  My bad.


edit-though it is a weird comment coming from someone as defensive as you are about the state, but whatever, if it was a joke, it was a joke
