Apparently, completely different etymologies. "Alaska" comes from Russian. "Nebraska" comes from a language native to North America.
and the capital city of 'aska' is in neither one. it's onalaska, wisconsin
How is this map terrible? It looks completely factual to me. It's even missing New Zealand. Perfect map, 5/7, would buy again.
Now do states that contain “kansas”
Alakansas and Nebraskansas
Fun fact, in Kansas the Arkansas River is pronounced as the “OurKansas” River
It'll soon be called America River, or possibly Trump River.
Arrrrrr...
I… I don't know how to feel about this…
What about Arizaska and New Hampshaska?
Everyone always forgets Virginaska
I love the little guy on our map that is making kentucky fried chicken
Gotta give it up to Louisiana for being boot shaped, really ties the whole thing together
Kentukaska? Alabaska? Washinaska? USAska? Trumposaska? Sasaska? Dozens of them!

Rules:
Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.
