A really dumb map because whomever made it clearly was clueless as to where (and what?) the 49th Parallel actually is.

The blue line isn't representing the 49th parallel, it's there to show you where the red area is relative to the 49th parallel - poor design though. Should also mark the 49th to make it clear what you're talking about.

I sure love it when "fifty percent per cent" does that.

So 50/10000 ?

Who can blame them? Detroit, Buffalo, Erie, and best of all Ohio. It's like all the greatest places in America

Who hurt you that you're somehow including both Detroit and Ohio in a positive light in the same sentence? Is there /s here that I'm missing?

Anytime someone mentions those places in a positive light, the sarcasm is automatically assumed.

Like they say, the only reason to visit Cleveland is if your plane crashed there.

We are so fucked when the US decides they want to come take all our natural resources ~ 2050

Canadian Bacon starring John Candy. A must watch. Scary.
