(New York) As American warships gather and strong rhetoric flows from the White House, Americans are growing increasingly concerned they may have to find Venezuela on a map. “They do those bits on late night tv,” said Maryland Bantra of New York. “I don’t want to be the dumb ones. I’m not sure if I can find that country… and screw it if they have a globe.”

This fear is echoed by Americans around the country. “If this gets serious, I’m sure there are countries near Venezuela that will be involved. We’ll have to learn their names, maybe even their capitals,” said Frankfurt Devens of Florida. “I just got two new bosses I report to… you’re saying I have to learn their names and then some capitals. I can’t do it.”

But not everyone shares this pessimism. London Haim, a high school geography teacher, said, “this will be over really fast, and we might even wipe Venezuela off the map. My job will be even easier if that happens.”

Americans that have been to Venezuela are sad that war is imminent. Leo Sturbgetter, a cow detangler in eastern West Virginia, said “I hate to see these people suffer, but with those Epstein files out there, something has to happen. Sorry amigos.”
