Obviously a total failure.  If it was done right, there would be a
bridge so we could drive to one of our states, Hawaii.  Don't call in
"interstate" and miss one.

You call it a total failure. I call it the most beautiful/spectacular

He explained that it is a total failure as an interstate because it does
not connect it to any other state. The problem is calling it an
interstate.   As for being a failure the H3 has a dubious reputation.
There were a number of issues over the route laid out. It took an
incredible amount of time to build and it ended up costing way more than
projected, way more than other interstates.

I got the joke. All da Hawaiians got the joke. It's pretty funny but we
don't mind. Da Hawaiians got their beautiful road and the feds got to
call their highway an "Interstate." As far as I'm concerned, they can
call it "Tobacco Road" or "Buckaroo Banzai." Hawaiians know a good deal
when we see one.
Americans on the mainland might think it unfair that they had to foot
the bill for most of it but tough titties. I have to pay to replace the
elevators in our condo even if we never use it. Same ting. Quit your
complainin'.
