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.
Honestly I can't get Wiltshire out of my head. Rhotal rs? What? They sound like they're from New England until they say something that makes my brain twist. I love it.
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
