Brits Label US Maps

For the third year in a row, Buzzfeed asked the UK for a Thanksgiving gift: British people trying to label the states on U.S. maps. Honestly, Brits know a lot about the U.S., but when they are confronted with a map asking for fifty labels, it’s suddenly difficult and confusing. I’m surprised they did as well as they did. Most of the folks who tried it labeled all the states whether they knew them or not, which is priceless. In the map above, I live in the state of “not here.” See all 21 maps.

I wonder if there are 100 Americans who could do half as well filling in the English shires. Or even England, Scotland and Wales? What about Europe? Way too many Americans are incredibly ignorant about the world they live in.

When I took care of my sister's rabbit, a cardboard box would be fun for hours. I remember one time she chewed out the supports, then jumped on top of it. She had the best "Oh crap" look on her face I've ever seen. She fell off, but she was ok.

I keep getting pop up ads that freeze the site, I hope this is not intentional and didn't know how to bring it to your attention if it is not, so I thought i'd just comment.
