Why do so many Europeans seem to think the whole country is Texas?
I imagine the same reason so many Americans think of the UK as just London, or France as just Paris. I don't know what that reason is, but I imagine it's probably the same reason.
That's not true America is Texas, Florida (if it involves alligators or trans-hatred), California, Las Vegas and New York. Everything else is irrelevant.
Massachusetts is literally the most significant state. It's a forest with health care. We're basically elves.
Hmmm idk about that Vermont is much closer to being elves than any part of Mass I've ever seen
Because American culture is your greatest export.
