No, no, no.

Only some Americans are like that.

I have yet to ascertain the source but 2 out of 3 Americans don't know what or where actually Canada is.

There are people in this country that still don't know that there is a state called West Virginia. They think it's still Virginia. We've been a real state since 1862.

You've been a PRETEND state since 1862. That population will never be a real state. Not with 'dueling banjos' as a theme song.

I know where Canada is. I know the names of the Provinces, even that new Territory. I know where Transkei is on a map. I can point out Bophuthatswana.

So there.

It's not England, BTW. It's "Brattan". And "Fraance."

Indeed, I don't really see much humor in this. In fact, I'm a bit insulted. Who the hell likes Disney and McDonald's? Ew!

Seriously. Taco Bell's the king. With Subway a close second. And we don't spell "neighbor" with a "u". Sheeesh.

Neighbors spelled with a 'U?' Oh, i missed that. Well, that just shows you that the origin of the map is clearly not from the US. Probably one of those snowchuckers to the north.

Yeah, that's about right.
But pretty soon, the seemingly friendly snowchuckers are gonna chuck so much snow, and cover your entire country, and then, THE WORLD!!!
Mwahahaha!!

They also spelled "civilization" w/ an 's'. So, apparently, we don't know foreign geography, while, wherever this was made, they don't know foreign spelling or the fact that "America" != the United States.

I also know where Bophuthatswana is. Er... about. I know what country it's in, anyway. *L*

In eighth grade, I was fifth place in the state level of the National Geography Bee, if that says anything. :-)

You know, we got revenge on many countries for many thing, by franchiseing McDungs!

As long as we, meaning WVU, beat Pitt in football, all is well!! (granted that only happens about half the time)
