Ohio? rule

I'm American and I don't know where Ohio or Germany is.
- I’m American and I don’t know where Oreo is.
- Also American. I know where Germany is because I've had buddies from Germany, which made it useful information. Ditto Romania, Nigeria, and South Korea. I will remember X country when there is something of personal significance about it and apparently not before.
  I don't know where Ohio is and will never learn, because there is nothing IN Ohio, and they know there's nothing in Ohio because they're still LYING ABOUT THE AIRPLANE.
- The only reason to know where Ohio is is to avoid going there
- ...how?
- It's the chonky one in the middle.
To be fair most Germans know where America is.
- Yes this one is honestly a bit apples to oranges-ish, I can kinda understand though because Germany is about the size of a single US state.
  Though it's very hard to fuck up western Europe if you ever looked at a world map. Western Europe only has a handful of countries.
  Compared to a country of 50 or so states where only 3 have a memorable shape (California, Texas, Florida), one has a memorable location (Alaska) and NYC being a household name.
The John Oliver bit will never get old for me.
This is really alien to me because I'm american and I've been able to point out Germany on a map since I was like, 10? Its a very distinctive shape and position on the map. Idk, maybe its just my brain.

Why oh why did they get Arkansas right??

Because we're like the 2nd worst state in the country so it sticks out. Whenever I get depressed about being stuck in Arkansas, I tell myself "at least I don't live in Florida"
- You forgot Mississippi, so at least you're only 3rd worst
- And yet MS is "West George"
Also west virginia. Why do they know about west virginia?!?!? Who told them?

the fuck is going on here

Fake ass Euro not comprehending small and weird borders

Every state looks the exact same

The only memorable ones are California, nevada, washington, texas, florida, and maine.
Washington and Maine are only memorable because of very easy locations, being in the top corners of the country.
- Uhh, fucking MICHIGAN??? THE BIG MITTEN? Easily a contender for that list based on shape alone.

I'm just wondering how you mislocate "Virgin," yet somehow get West Virginia right.

As a resident of Oreo, I can confirm that my state is tasty as fuck.

I imagine Minnesotans would take offense to being called “Texas 2”. In both climate and politics, it's the opposite of Texas.

“Uh” and “Minne-sota” are the same state: Michigan. It's the only state whose land is divided by a huge lake spanning the entire state.

As a Minnesotan. Yes. So deeply offended. It gets cold as fuck up here
- At least you can bundle up. When it's devil's-butthole degrees outside, you can only strip down so much before you run out of clothing to take off.

American on Germany: All states look like Bavaria.

American on Germany: other countries have states?
- America on German cities: "That's a food!"

Americans are very sensitive about you knowing which state they're from

It used to be that Prussians, Germans and Austrians would cut you for confusing them for one of the others.

COUNTRY ROOOOOOOOOADS

TAKE ME HOOOOOOME

Is nobody going to mention the absence of Alaska?

Bit chilly in Ohio today, innit?

Fucked up that I still don't know where Ohio is

It's in the top right corner right?

This post does actually manage to get it with one of the like 10 guesses
- It's the one next to "I crave cereal" right?
it's the one that's shaped like ohio, right next to the one that's next to ohio

I love Oreo. We should have a state of Oreo.

Right? I wouldn't oppose a state of Cheez-It either.

Honestly, that's how I feel about Kansas as well

Mfw New York isn't even labeled on the map.

Its to the left of the Great Tower of Kansas, sharing real estate with New Jersey and New Mexico.
Now that's a sentence and a half

I was pretty good at maps in highschool but I forgot a lot of it and never got good at Africa. I have no trouble with the 50 states but I'm american so that tracks. I'm also decent at South America (central america is beyond me though), most of Europe, and Asia.

I used to be pretty bad at European countries, apart from the UK, Spain, France, Portugal, Germany, and Italy, until I started playing EU4. Good with most of the countries around the world now save for some of the ones in Central and western Africa, and a few of the smaller -stans, bit still only can label maybe half the US states.
You forgot that Australia / Oceania existed at all though.
