NaBloPoMo, Day 30. Hey, we made it to the end of November! Whaaat.

I can't remember what the last NaBloPoMo question is, nobody has posted yet for me to copy & paste the question from, and I am obviously too lazy to find the meme, but I think it had something to do with posting a funny thing, so: Buzzfeed asks their UK office to label US states.

In all honesty, they do a hell of a lot better than I think most Americans would (and Americans are also terrible at Europe). But just to be clear, there is no state called Squaresies. :)

I used to play a game like that with my dad when I was a kid, but extended to all the globe: label states and name their capital. I'm good at US and Asia. Less good with Africa.

Squarsies? I want one now!

That's an awesome game! I used to be much better at capitals than I am now... :)

I loved this. My favorite is "Nobody Cares." That's you, Nebraska.

Heee! Nebraska really got hit hard with indifference :))

I've seen that one and the Euorpe one. I'd be equally as bad if I had to place English counties =)

I hope you'll contine to post regularly, it's been lovely hearing from you ♥

*hugs*

Hee! I know two counties: where you live and where Harry Styles lives. :)))

Yeah, it's been fun doing this; I'll try to keep it up. And same to you, lady! ♥

... and I totally lost half an hour looking at both the US/European versions, and reading the comments.

NO REGRETS.

Thanks for sharing! And for doing nablopomo! *SMOOSH!*

What is impressive is that you didn't spend another half hour clicking through the rest of Buzzfeed's nonsense :)

Thank you for kicking NaBloPoMo off! It's been awesome!! *hugs*

To be honest, I can't correctly place the Eastern European countries, either.

I think I can do most of each coasts, except I am hopeless with the states above New York.

Hee, oh good, neither can I. :)))

Notice that almost all the Brits knew where Canada was. Lol.

I have done this before and know every state. I'm pretty good at Europe too. *preens*

Well, that's because you're fabulous and clever, obvs. :)))
