FIRST FIRST FIRST!
LOSER LOSER LOSER!
I see that you added numerous comments over a 10 minute time frame. I’m glad you are being selective and not just posting the first dumb thought that pops into your head. Or maybe there are no thoughts – that’s the problem.
Wow. Does this mean I’m really a Midwesterner even though I am from the Pacific NorthWet? This explains much.
Hooray for the mini-males, they are easier to blow.
Well, duh! Most women can.
WIN.
Lol, women who win. That’s an oxyMORON.
Well, shurr – only there’s too much blue on the East: that should be about the same area as Hawaii.
should be? but ‘ain’t’ and never will be ya redneck!
CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT!
We needs to learn to use the reply link REPLY REPLY REPLY!
Thanks. I blew pumpernickel pretzel out my nose.
Most of Alaska should be red, shouldn’t it?
You want to x-out the eskimos?! You want to start a debate?! You live in the blue area too?!
I’m a master debater.
master debaters do it orally….
Well, I guess it’s never to late to make a Mass Debating club…
There no need for me, my partner’s fantastic.
Idiot.
Poor dude, his name is a WIN and a FAIL at the same time.
And yes, you and 12wqz are idiots.
thats not how the midwesterners think of it
What part of the midwest do you live in?
Well, I’m certainly not an eskimo!
Finally, a good one.
You sure do fantasize a lot about homosexual exploits with the other posters. In addition to being an idiot, you must also be a queer.
I am.
…an idiot.
yes
…you are
You mean “fantasies.” Idiot.
Wow.
Complete fail.
LOL
Obviously, joe changed his name to “Me” so that it would look like Me was saying it. Duh….
I was all ready to be mad about this (originally from Midwest)…but after I read it… I laughed. Very nice. I also think Alaska should have been full of crazies. And don’t forget the Militia people!
Anyway…as a Midwesterner…LOL.
I might accept being called a crazy, but I’m not an eskimo, that’s for sure.
I take it there are no liberals OR conservatives in the Midwest?
Lol, of course there are. It’s a healthy mix of people…but the graph says how we SEE it… makes me laugh because I often speak of all the “crazies”. On all sides. But who am i to call normal? I am an entomologist. ^_~
Really? That’s what you’re going with, “queers?”
Yeah, I’m at a loss, too.
Midwesterner or queer? Idiot.
You do realize you are posting as yourself. Idiot.
I can vouch for that.
Though, Hawaii should be “Hula girls and fat guys that kind of look Mexican”
No es bueno
WHAT? Where are YOU from that you can’t tell a Hawiian guy from a Mexican one?
Gabriel Iglesias humor, awesome!
At least someone picked up on it.
don’t forget that the Hawaiian will be drinking out of a coconut
I am from europe and all I can say is: it’s true. Everyone here thinks exactly what the graph shows
Why would you suggest that everyone is the US “get some dentists”? Idiot.
So you think I am normal since Im a midwesterner?
Seems most of the upper Northwest is normal. Guess you can count where I live as normal. Ohio is…kind of normal.
Y am from europe too, but I dont agree with the brown, i would call it center loonies instead of the mountains-LOL
Sadly my dear European borther, I being from iowa can tell you that this chart is actually somewhat accruate.
WIN!
I’m from the Netherlands and I see the USA the same as Midwesterners!
Except for the blue parts, I’d say those would be green too.
And your fingers.
do you kiss your mother with that mouth? seriously, doesn’t she, like run away from the smell of $#!t in your mouth?
Gersh gurndy morn-dee burn-dee, burn-dee, flip-flip-flip-flip-flip-flip-flip-flip-flip
LOL That was good.
LOL That was good!
As a midwesterner, I’ll sign off on this map, but point out that there ARE no “normal” people anywhere – only patchy distributions of the blue and the red people.
agreed as a midwesterner also, except there are more mountains than the section for them and I know a lot of that section is desert since I have driven across it
For reals! We need to come up with a map of how people who make maps of how they think we think think when they think about us.
I think.
how do you make those maps?
Look up “basin and range topography.” It means mountain range, gap, mountain range, gap, mountain range, gap, in the most basic terms. Yes, there’s oodles and oodles of desert, but technically the chart is er…sorta accurate, because there are mountain ranges all across the area in maroon, interspersed with gaps (desert parts).
Besides, remember this graph is supposed to be a joke. If you tried to represent which is mountain and which was desert, you would have stripes which would confuse Midwesterners, further blind old Floridians, make Democrats and Republicans alike see purple, and the Hawaiians and Alaskans agree to secede from the nation. Oh, and give some people seizures.
Im from NoDak and now live in Minnesota and completely agree. most people around here never get out of the state and pretty much thing these exact same things. whats weird is a LOT of people are surprised that ND has the internet, or even that they have electricity.
Midwesterner here as well, and I mostly agree.
The map is okay, but we certainly don’t see people in Kansas or Indiana as “normal”. Those states should be red.
Indiana’s actually pretty evenly split between blue and red right now. (Basically majority of south/central = red, majority of north/cities = blue)
I’m from Iowa, and my first thought was, yup that’s about right.
I too am from Iowa and now live in Wisconsin (hopefully not for long). I really don’t agree with the green going into Ohio and Pennsylvania. Those aren’t normal people to real Midwesterners.
I’m from MN and Wisconsin should have its own color on the map. They are definitely not normal!
No MN is normal. The standards for what is “normal” were developed from questionaires given to surgery patients in MN. Normalcy is MN, the state which has given us both Barbara Bachman and Al Franken (2 of America’s great comedic wits.)
Of course we’re normal. It’s the rest of the country that is weird!
i’m from iowa too.. and i’m actually a little offended by this. i mean, i get really tired of people from other states thinking that midwesterners are uneducated and close-minded.
absolutely…this map doesn’t quite cover it. I am from the midwest and I insist there should be a color for ‘corn/wheat fields’. and that should take care of most of the stuff west of chicago but east of the mountains.
Seriously, are there really that many people that live in Iowa that there could be multiple people on this page from there?
Respectfully,
Ignorant from Indiana
Hey! It’s not just mountains, there’s deserts there too! ….right?
And Arizona should be “Old People”
Am not.
.
texas should be divided into 3. the top half being normal people the middle being rich old dudes and the bottom half being mexican immigrants
Watch out! They’re spreading to southwestern New Mexico as well! They specifically love Las Cruces, except they’re mad other old people are moving in too and destroying their mountain views by creating the need for annexation and new subdivisions. Oh and they’re also constantly calling the newspaper to complain that there isn’t a Luby’s.
I don’t know enough about this to comment yet, but since I am an idiot, I will comment anyway.
I don’t have any good ones; never do, never will.
Nice. Reply to your own post as someone else. Idiot.
totally
Ahhh, you’re an idiot.
Homosexual fantasies and now fart sniffing. Joe, you really are an idiot. No, really you are. I’m not kidding.
As a midwesterner, there’s only 1 problem with this graph. Anything west of Minnesota, right in the middle there (the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas) is Farms. Like Children of the Corn-type farms. Scary.
See, what did I say? There is no “normal” on our map. Or if there is, it won’t show up on a map this small because it’s me, and my friends, and my mom.
concieted
Your mom isn’t exactly “normal”…you should hear the requests she makes in the bedroom…
Wow.. I’ve been reading the graphjam blog for a long time now, and this is the first time I decided to check out the comments. Congratulations, you even make YouTube and 4chan comments look like Shakespearean sonnets.
Great post! Classic…
It’s actually not always this bad. The troll replying to himself and saturating the board with dumb comments is hopefully just a temporary thing.
If you think these people are special, you should check out the cheezburger and hotdog pages. I don’t know how those people figure out how to turn their computers on.
How do you get the US graph to show up in the graphbuilder? I can’t find it anywhere! ><
You just realized this?
Oh my God, the worst part is that it’s so true!
WOOT!!! SUM1THINKS IM NORMAL !!!!!!… wait a sec… wut is midwestern??
The epitome of win. Duh.
How do you know this? No, seriously, how can you tell?
(haaaaaaaaaaackeeeeeeeeeeer)
I live in Texas but this is pretty much how I view the US.
Except that in the center of Texas where Austin is there should be a blue dot.
the thing is… i dont view myself as normal either
WV is not green. It is most certainly red.
how many (younch) french see it:
- deep blue: AMERICA, the one we dream of
- brown zone: north -> mountains, south -> desert
- green zone: boring, must be filled with losers
- red zone: do not enter, or people from the woods will try to eat you. And even if you you escape them, the police will arrest you for being french anyway.
- pink zone: where old rich people go to die
- ice blue: people actually live there?
younch -> young
=)
I’m not gonna lie, that’s how I see it.
holy crap
Yup, this is how we see it, only west of the Mississippi is prairie people.
this is grossly inaccurate
beg to differ
agreed.
This is so true.
LOVE IT! (And I am a midwesterner.) My only observation would be that parts of the northwest should be sprinkled with a bit of red, for all those militia types that seem to be holed up in the country out there, refusing to pay their taxes and raising little UniBombers.
Wow, they nailed it.
(…Michigan)
The only correction I would make is to replace the blue in New England with a combination of the “left-wing loonies” and “old people” labels. Possibly purple.
There’s this whole other part of Washington that we like to call “Eastern Washington.” It’s definitely right wing not left.
As a mid-westerner myself, i have to say that this graph is %100 accurate. Definite lols to be had here…
Cook County, IL and the surrounding areas NEED to be blue!!!
Where the heck do you get off saying the Wisconsinites are normal??? We Minnesotans have lived next to them for years, and they are just WEIRD! Jeff Dahmer and Ed Gein weird. And the cults – they are everywhere. Us Midwesterners ARE normal (except for the above). You can tell this because everyone in the movies talks just like us, even the fake accents, which all have a Midwest twang underneath. The only time movie people didn’t talk like real Midwesterners was in the movie “Fargo.” That was a hoot!
totally xD My mom is a Wisconsonite tho…
yeah!!!!!!!!! WE’RE LEFT WING NUTJOBS IN IL!!!!!!
we see florida and hawaii as beaches, california as a state of dumbness, and wisconson as wisconson (seperate).
I can’t tell if that’s a poorly worded dig at Iowa or just a homophobic slur in general. Could you clarify?
its best not to try to figure it out: either way its just ignorance.
Very true.
I have a sense of Deja Vu. Be this a repost?
Actually, if this map were accurate, the red section of the map would be titled “Sore Losers”, the green would extend down to the KY/TN line (about a quarter of the people in OH, IN, IL & Michigan have at least 1 Kentuckian as a great grandfather or closer relation, due to the migrations to work in the northern factories), and Michigan, Wisconsin & Minnesota would be Blue instead of green.
Odd they didn’t include Kansas in the red. I mean Fred Phelps lives there, and they want to teach ID in class rooms.
But I’d imagine the counter graph to this would be “How the rest of the US sees the Midwest” With the Midwest being labeled rust belt, farmers, cornfields, and boring.
People from Wisconsin are definately not normal
Thank you! Normal is boring.
At least you spelled Wisconsin right. *glare at ReM*
Hate to tell you this, but that’s how a lot of people see the US. Not at all original or humorous. Get a life.
This makes it seem as if all the “normal” states are supposed to be the midwest. Some of them practically touch the Atlantic. Graph fail?
Don’t like that Florida is excluded. Shows just how much of an idiot the guy that made this map is. I live in Florida, and I am not old.
No, you’re in Florida, and the graph says that old people are in Florida, therefore you are old.
I saw it on the Internet, it MUST be true!
what part of “lol” don’t you get?
If you are too old to laugh, you are too old!
I think the label suits just fine.
This is how the rest of the ~world~ sees the U.S.
Except change “normal people” with “amish”.
IM NOT AMISH!!!!!!!!!
I was thinking more of change “normal” to “get me the f*ck outta here”
While I would like to travel I have to say I happen to like living in Iowa.
This is exactly how the rest of the world sees America except substitute Normal people for Creationists.
Also a smally Red dot over New York indicating, “Where Spiderman lives”.
WIN. Exactly right. Haha creationists, it’s so true. Maybe substitute the left wing loonies with ‘pretentious hipsters’.
kentucky is a democratic state, hardly right wing
that’s offensive….
Could be worse. Could be ‘How Texans See The US’ in which case Texas would be huge and and the rest of the map would be labeled ‘The Back 48′ and Hawaii would be labeled as as a water lily floating in the cow pond
So true! I speak from experience as a Texan myself. And now, ya’ll, gotta go, cuz I’m fixin’ to go see what’s in the fridge.
Being from North Dakota, I just want to express how much Montanans and Minnesotans suck at driving.
YOU SUCK AT DRIVING.
haha… Florida… haha.
Heh, as a Midwesterner, I don’t see how Pennsylvania/West Virginia fits in there and Oklahoma doesn’t. Census midwest =/= the midwest
dude totally, im from wisconsin that is so right
Hey whoa! I’m a Wisconsin lifer and unless you’ve been imprisoned in the cheese mines of northern WI you should know we’ve been living in the ridiculous tax-hell People’s Republic of WI for quite some time. There is sooooo nothing “normal” about a healthy chunk of folks living in this state! We’ given the world Ed Gien and Jeffrey Dahmer (sorta) for crying out loud!
Ok, fine, does anyone wonder why we drink so much beer here? Normal? Puuuhhhhlease! This graph needs some serious serious work! Sooooo wrong about the midwest! And I need a Leinenkugel!
hey now, i’m from the midwest and i don’t think that. however, i won’t disagree with you that a vast majority of the people here do. which is why this is funny ^_^
oh yeah and Oklahoma is totally the midwest, its like the midwest capital, i’m a little sick of people grouping us with the south, we weren’t even around for the civil war. we didn’t become a state until 1907, so idk how we could get grouped in there. i mean c’mon look at the map Oklahoma is smack dab in the middle of the US, its not really south. at least i don’t think so, but hey i might be biased, i did grow up here after all. I think someone should make a graph of how the Northeast sees the rest of the country, because they just think everyone else south of them are poor stupid idiots. Unless they’re from California, and then they’re just hippies. ugh i hate stereotypes
lol… “unless they´re from california, and then they are just hippies.” still not hippie enough to let gay people marry apparently. looks like there are hicks among us!
Oklahoma isnt the midwest pretty much to us midwestreners anything below Missuori is considered the south.
stereotypes are fun!
i suppose that green area is normal… i guess. i never much had an opinion about them. just seems like a very boring area to live in. actally for me any state that doesn´t have a coastline seems rather boring.
Because I live in Chicago, I agree with this 100%
nah, that isn’t right. Indiana needs to be in the right wing loonies part. at least everything below indianapolis
from eastern nebraska and i think that, sadly enough, most folks here would remake this graph as follows:
the green section only inculding ND, SD, MN, WI, KS, and MO &labelled “people who probably wish they were us”,
iowa would be “god-awful drivers &creepy inbred idiots”,
the red area would include WV and just be “southerners”,
florida would be “bikini-clad women, david caruso, and old folks”,
AZ &NM = “desert”,
MT &WY = “even more boring than us”,
CA would be “bikini-clad women, arnold schwarzeneggar, and hippies”
Hahaha! I’m from Eastern NE too! I totally agree with that XD I totally would remake it to that, and so would pretty much everyone I know from around here… Your views are an epic win
haha why thank ya! i was gonna put utah in as “crazy mormons” but wasnt sure how well that wouldve been received. lol
Lolz yeah it should… Texas could be ‘ranches and cowboys’ XD stereotyping is fun!
Hey, NC is blue now!! Can we be left wing loonies, instead?
Im English. Living in Kentucky. I didnt know there was Mountains over there I thought the crazy people just went out further and the fascists ended later.
I’m from Chicago, and that whole map is pretty much correct.
No, we think yoopers are weird too. Minnesota and the UP get their own color.
As a 30yr. resident of Minnesota who once lived in Chicago I must agree with you totally!!! I now live in South Carolina and that red part of the map is accurate as hell.
If i’m a right wing loonie. YOUR A OLD PERSON!
an old person*
the european grammar gestapo strikes again!
Dumbass, it should be “you’re.” If you are going to be a grammar gestapo, get it right.
Having Pennsylvania, Ohio, and maybe Indiana included in “normal people” is wrong. The Middle East is not the same as the Midwest. Also, we would exclude the bottom half of Missouri (ahem– Misery) and would be fine with conceding the Dakotas to the red category.
It’s a joke. Chill out.
for your info, i live in florida, and im only 16, BOOYA! course it is the panhandle, you it doesnt make sense, old people+disney world, worst combo ever
Umm…. not quite. Most Midwesterners would also put a special blob in for Chicago — and also put Indiana and the UP of Michigan in “right wing loonies.” Ask anyone in the Midwest and you always get “Well, Chicago’s different.” Also, shouldn’t Arizona also be old people territory?
‘left wing loonies’ on the right side of the country? epic fail
As someone originally from Pennsylvania, now living in Indiana, I feel qualified to say that Pennsylvania is definitely not the Midwest. Pennsylvanians don’t think it is, and Midwesterners don’t think it is.
Ohio totally is though, freakin’ hicks.
In Pittsburgh they call themselves Midwest mainly just so they aren’t associated with Philadelphia.
According to this, I’m a mountain!
Well you could be a desert. Hard to tell from here.
*loads semi auto sks rifle and sets bayonet* so you think theres only mountains here huh?
Being from Pennsylvania, its nice to see that I am viewed as normal
bitch must be trolling
u kno about 1% of southerners are hillbillys and 75% of us are NORMAL PEOPLE.
damn straight thats how it is!
person is true, even tho I have never been in the south before…
I’m a left wing loony, apparently.
and proud of it â˜!
I am saying that because I am queer and i was hoping
If you’re queer, then I’m a Chinese Jet Pilot.
I hope you are, because that would be kind of cool.
We don’t think of you that way, morons. -_- But the Hawaii, thats partially true.
wait, so since when are Pennsylvania and West Virginia part of the Midwest?
they aren’t, we just see them as normal
If this were from a Californian perspective…east coast would be “awesome”, and everyone else would be right-wing loonies…including ourselves. So disappointed in my state, as are others :-\
YAY!!! but im not normal. . .
I live in new york and i aint loony
HOW CALIFORNIANS SEE THE MIDWEST: From 37,000 feet at 650 MPH.
Herp-de-derp hyuk! How do ya loke those crabapples, Jed?
YAY IM CONSIDERED NORMAL
im from the midwest and this is so true … haha
I’m from MN, and I gotta agree with most of you. This is true. I was originally ready to be offended by this, but it’s really true.
I’m from Michigan…and yes this is true
Whats wrong with this graph… seems right to me! (Also from MI)
I’m also from Michigan and this is defiantly true.
I’m from Alaska and going to college in the mdiwest–the sad thing? This is (as far as Alaska) pretty much the sad truth. They may not think “Eskimo”, but they sure as hell don’t think we’re normal people like everyone else–they treat AK as some incredibly different backwards foreign place, instead of your completely NORMAL state.
And yes, I know this rambles, but I really don’t care.
This seems to be a completely accurate model of the U.S., and anyone who disagrees is WRONG AND EVIL AND LIKE A JONAS BROTHERS FAN OR SOMETHING.
GO FINISH UP YOUR TWILIGHT/HANNAH MONTANA FANFICTION, YOU FIENDISH PERSON!
Wooh! I feel pretty good now!
lol yeah that about how i see it and i live in Illinois and it’s true jk
Seems pretty accurate, though West Virginia shouldn’t be green. They are NOT normal…
yay, we’re normal!
screw twilight
I’m guessing the people from Oregon, Washington, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Maryland ,and Delaware will complain that they are not left wing loonies(it’s just New York and California who are)
Just about nailed it but, If the floridy bit was just X’d out and the brownish part was divided into the parts where they have sweet fireworks and the parts where they all wish they were banging their cousins and living in the red part and the Pennsylvania part was included in the blue part and Indiana part was kind of gerrymandered into the red part and the hawaii part was riding a surf board and the alaska part was a hypocritical fame whore whose son was retarded, you’d be spot on.
