I can't decide if the subject or the hand coloring of the states bothers me more

[-] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 33 points 11 months ago

Contiguous Michigan is personally the most upsetting to me.

[-] drcobaltjedi@programming.dev 8 points 11 months ago

Yeah split my state back in half you weirdo. Its supposed to be 2 peninsulas.

[-] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 3 points 11 months ago

It just looks so... Wrong.

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago

According to the law of US Canada Border Dominance, if a Michigander pisses into Lake Superior then it becomes part of the state.

Ontarians and Manitobans are trying hard to compete at the pissing contest.

Does it help to know that Michigan is also the wrong color on top of all of that? There are toes obscured by shoes on it:

[-] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 1 points 11 months ago

What problem does OP have with Michigan? They've done MI dirty.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 12 points 11 months ago

That just adds to the authenticity. That there is a working mans map

[-] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 8 points 11 months ago

Well?

Which was it?

Minnesota doesn't have toes anymore

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 34 points 11 months ago
[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Does too, they are just slightly off flag. You can see them when gojira finishes his radiation breath

[-] joel_feila@lemmy.world 45 points 11 months ago

Stepping? Without toes? Stumbling, more like.

Technically, the new flag doesn't come into use for another 5 months or so, assuming the legislature doesn't stop it.

It does look pretty slick, though.

[-] iSpyFrolic@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago

In a surprising turn of events, this graph will actually be changing soon! Minnesota will have a new state flag before too long.

[-] idunnololz@lemmy.world 24 points 11 months ago

Feet fetishists are out of control.

[-] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago

Ah yes, the Tarantino US map.

[-] Veneroso@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

RIP colorblind people

[-] JoMomma@lemm.ee 9 points 11 months ago

This literally explains everything wrong in America

[-] thesmokingman@programming.dev 7 points 11 months ago

This is slightly misleading. The Kansas flag, for example, does have human toes hidden by dirt rather than shoes (or shoes if we do not assume the farmer is standing in the plowed rut). I question the selection methodology. Since there are readily visible hooves on the KS flag as well as hidden human toes, should we assume that all of the yellow states also have human toes hidden? We can’t because of, for example, California, which has bear toes and no human.

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago

Why isn't this part of social studies curriculum? I'm embarrassingly old to just be learning this now.

[-] joeyv120@ttrpg.network 7 points 11 months ago

The liberal agenda is state flags with feet. At least it's better than when they copypasta the racist confederate flag on to a state flag.

[-] nifty@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Massachusetts should be orange tho

[-] jaschen@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago

TIL that George Washington(WA state) doesn't have toes.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

My state's flag not only has toes, it has bear feet.

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 months ago

I've never been into flags, but I am amazed that I'm only just now learning that my state flag is not, in fact, an eagle holding an olive branch and arrows.

[-] pete_the_cat@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

New Jersey's should possibly be orange because you cant see their feet

[-] Squorlple@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Civil War between these regions — who would win?

[-] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 months ago

No Toes comes in at the most states with 25, including Texas, and the highest population at 139 million. Second is Animal Toes with 11 states and 93 million people, California being a big help there. Florida and New York help get the seven Toes states into 3rd with 75 million, and the last seven Shoes states, with no highly populous states, come in at 27 million.

Not saying this is all that would determine the winner of a war, I just wanted to see what the numbers look like.

[-] Kase@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

No toes on my flag 😞

[-] recapitated@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I did a trust but verify and I was not disappointed.
