the united states of america

ALASKA - Aluetian Islands are frequently left off and misspelled.
ARKANSAS - Has two indentions: One in the northeast corner and one in the southwest.
DELAWARE - Is this really a state?
FLORIDA - That little part that juts up into Georgia a bit.
GEORGIA - See above
HAWAII - Oahu and three other little circles does not make a map of Hawaii.
IOWA - Has a sizable bulge on the eastern side.
MISSOURI - don't forget the boot heel!

Man, some of those old electoral maps look strange in today's context.

MINNESOTA - That little tic of a state park that you can only get to via Canada.
NEVADA - Has six sides, not four.
NEW MEXICO - The panhandle down near El Paso.
NEW YORK - Long Island, surprisingly enough. It's like the Tasmania of the Empire State.
SOUTH DAKOTA - Not a perfect rectangle, thanks to the Missouri River.
WEST VIRGINIA - Wheeling is not in Ohio.
WISCONSIN - Does not have an upper peninsula.

honestly you don't need to pass through the gateway arch in this maze, but you can and it's definitely recommended

― z_tbd, Wednesday, 13 December 2023 17:59 (two years ago)

...on second thought, and with even more honesty, i spent 30 seconds overlaying a google map of the US onto the maze, and perhaps the gateway arch is located in the entrance/exit to the right, so perhaps you do need to pass through the gateway arch in this maze. it's difficult to tell because lake michigan was destroyed in the giant usa maze disaster of 2023

It looks like you might need to cross into Mexico briefly, so you will need to bring ID and be prepared to deal with Customs and Immigration.

Oh yeah per capita is a different map for sure... just following through from mookieproof.

If per capita, could you just have one guy who drinks a lot?

Chattanooga
Grand Rapids
Rochester
Hollywood

I'd like to pretend that I could have guessed the common link between these 25 random cities by using the five L.A.-metro locations as a clue, but no, I'm not that smart.

why does ft lauderdale have a 70mm imax lol

― z_tbd, Sunday, 26 July 2026 04:21 (three months ago)

This made me curious about how many theatres in my native Canada are showing this (it's nine).

USA: 1 70mm IMAX Odyssey per 13.7 million people

Canada: 1 70mm IMAX Odyssey per 4.6 million people (IMAX is Canadian, after all)

So even accounting for border wait times, that map would be significantly altered if it included those nine theatres (in seven different cities).

But if the map included Canada, I suppose it wouldn't have been posted in this thread and I might never have seen it.

Mexico has 0 BTW
