  • "it used to be colder." I wonder what's changed.

    It's like the earth is warmer now. We ought to put a name to this strange phenomenon.

    How about "earthly warming"? No, that doesn't sound quite right.. It's on the tip of my tongue.. The alteration of the climate perhaps?

    Absolutely no possible reason whatsoever than OP having come from a different universe!!!1!

  • There's a word for someone who refuses to admit they're wrong in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary and would rather literally rewrite reality than accept they might have remembered something incorrectly: Genius. Certifiable genius.

    Anyway, these lead paint chips aren't gonna eat themselves.

  • Korea has to be the most absurd part. Did OP forget to mention they got kicked by a LOT of horses in their life?

    Like, why would the Imjin War even happen on this map?

  • I think these people don't realize that different map projections exist 🤦‍♀️

    I was thinking the same, but no map projection's gonna swap Korea and Hong Kong...

    Yeah. That's just them being ignorant...

    Yeah, one guy says... "I was taught Antarctic was the biggest continent."

    No you weren't. It just looks that way because of how flat 2d maps are drawn, and you were stupid.

    I think they're so used to seeing Hawaii in a little inset view in the corner of a map of the US that they think it's off the coast of California and not in the middle of the Pacific.

    New Zealand being north of Australia and the Korean peninsula being glued to Guangdong province are just baffling.

  • My favorite part is "South Sudan and Montenegro didn't exist" when they famously have become independent countries quite recently

  • Welcome back Qing China.

  • Lisbon had a climate similar to Galicia

    This is the equivalent of saying, "Arkansas had a climate similar to Missouri."

    Galicia and Lisbon are literally in the same climate region, what are they even trying to say. 

  • It's a long list, like apparently this dude had pretty exhaustive knowledge of world geography before he transported here.

  • I hate having to share a planet with these people

    Based on the map, you don't.
