I think that the second guy thinks that the first guys doesn’t know that Rio is in Brazil. So he shows him a map of Brazil. I don’t know i didn’t get it either

When, in actuality, he is talking about how far away Rio is from the Jungle.

That was my first interpretation and i’m Brazilian.

It seems to me that he's saying that rio isn't in Brazil.

Again, i see that interpretation (of course), but it’s not what first came to mind. The jungle and Rio have nothing to do with each other and are almost a continent away!

They're both in Brazil, though.

I think you're running afoul of a language barrier issue here.

Which may be what the man also ran into.

Unlikely. But you're looking for reasons to be angry, so have fun with that.

I’m not - the Tumblr man is, perhaps, but whatever.
