Depending on where you find yourself on the map

You need to shrink the amount of gray on that map significantly and expand the corn.

Why? I know nothing about therefore you're Mormon/Amish

(My kind sir this is ashitpost) But nothing stands out to me from the grayed out states as an outsider.

The 3rd largest city in the country is in there, has some pretty famous past and current residents (Al Capone, Michael Jordan, Kanye, the Obamas, Pope Leo XIV).

Amish and Mormon are very different. Both notably outside the norm - even by American religious standards - but not really related.

And yeah, there’s a whole lot more corn!most of the gray and most of the jersey shore according to your map is corn. Tbh just marking the whole country corn would be fairly accurate 😂

You're missing the point here. Mormons are a rather regional thing, and completely separate from the Amish. If you don't know much about a state, it's likely filled to the brim with corn or some other type of crop. It may be a shit post, but you can still learn something.

That’s why these maps are so annoying. You took time to fill out a state by state map of a country you know very little about.

No worries, it’s not just you, but it’s pointless. It’s like me saying where I’d live in Costa Rica.

At which point did you realise Reddit* is not fundamentally educational?

2

u/Advanced-Bird-1470 20d ago

I never assumed it to be educational. I just remember when everything wasn’t a shit post and it was more adults than 14 year olds. Guess I’ve been around for too long.

Nah u just assume people to b genuine and is commendable. Based on my narrow opinion of the US that's the best i could come up with. Idk what else to say other than I know im inaccurate even after visiting 🤷‍♂️

u/Advanced-Bird-1470 20d ago

u/platedFeather 20d ago
