Those associated with the campaign originally considered "#Maxit" or "#Waxit", but feared those hashtags may become confused with weight loss or car care advertising campaigns.
Local residents weighed in on the #Wexit movement, and seemed very supportive.
"Dem dern liberals in Annapolis dun know nuttin." stated one Washington County resident. "Out here we get us some hooch and some noise makers en we hae ourselves a good ol'time at the farm!"
Another resident event went so far as to state that Western Maryland should completely secede from the US, "Britain left the union and so should we!" The resident seemed unaware that the European Union and United States are two separate countries. However, the resident's confusion is understandable, since a significant number of UK residents searched Google for "What is the EU" on the day AFTER they voter to break ties with the EU. Perhaps they should have searched this topic before voting?
The top reason for #Wexit supporters to secede from Maryland? "Snow Mexicans". According to several local residents, they are tired of "freeloaders from the north moving here and corrupting our youth with their socialist ways."
While the constitution does allow for the creation of new states within existing ones, such an act would require the approval of the Maryland legislature.
Maryland Congressman John Delaney was unavailable for comment, as he was too busy throwing a temper tantrum in DC that Republicans won't let him try to take away firearms from his own constituents. Ironically, in his office in DC, he has the luxury of being protected by armed guards.
In other news, it has been rumored that the UK will now abandon the Metric system in favor of the US Standard system, to completely sever ties with the EU. "Good luck you bloody immigrants, you'll never figure out our math system now you buggers!"
#Waxon, #Waxoff. The Hagerstown Report is satire.
