That's an interesting map. Strange Maps is a great site if you're a geography geek such as myself.

Hmmm...I kind of like this map. I think I'll like the problem of illegals sneaking over my new border much more than my current problem. Following FIBs towing boats at 60 mph in the left lane on the interstate on their way to the Dells.

Looks like it's back to the Tennessee Oilers again.

Yay!

I'm in a fiercely secular nation!

It's a huge improvement!

When is Oregon going to nuke Alabama (or vice versa)?

/there are enough Russians in my part of NJ to make Russia seem a logical choice.

We've here in Nashua, where we have secretly replaced the fine coffee that is the state of New Hampshire with Folger's Crystals. Let's see if anyone notices the difference.

Maryland? That's not too bad.

This doesn't mean I have to like the Orioles, right?

Last I noticed, there was one running through the snow around the Pine Barrens.

I agree with Author that GDP per Capita would be much more telling.

So, can I expect to see Hugo Chavez at the Iowa City KwikShop anytime soon?

 
FarkinHostile 2007-06-12 10:20:04 AM  
You know, one time back in Rhode Island, we were pinned down by Charlie after trying to take Warwick. We had to call in an airstrike from Quanset, then we got to the LZ in East Greenwich.

California is France. Poetic justice at work.

Those damn Mexicans need to stop sneaking into Canada.

Wow... That shows how rich the US is. Yay us!

If you live in Kansas like me, you note with a smile that we own both Arkansas and Oklahoma.

I looked at Maine and saw something called "Moroco."

WTF is a Moroco?

Minnesota is Norway. Isn't everyone in Minnesota either Norewegian or Hmong?

 
PhaetonGrim 2007-06-12 10:25:25 AM  
They need to stop sneaking (into welcoming, open arms) into France, dammit!

 
PopeSchmope 2007-06-12 10:26:09 AM  
Texas is Canada, huh. Well, Texas has won more Stanley Cups in the last decade than Canada has, so they have a leg up.

 
HotWingConspiracy [TotalFark] 2007-06-12 10:26:24 AM  
Brazil? This explains all the shemales. I thought it was just bad luck.

I'm in Maryland, and I don't like the Orioles. Their damn retarded fatty fans take up all the parking during Otakon.

And, if Bush gets his druthers from Congress, this is about what the map will look like in ten years. Fur real.

Buck Fush. His "legacy" is going to smell for years.

Well that's pointless.

Go to Condorcet voting, and get rid of primaries altogether.

Yea. Us Norwegians brought the Hmong in because we needed to spread some awesome around.

We also have one of the largest Somali populations in the nation.
