yeah because the difference between oklahoma and other states is like poland and the uk right.Macbeth wrote:
You must be ignoring the Oklahoma redneck vs not in Oklahoma arguments that go on between members here after EM showed up. The midwest, northeast, south, and west coast are all different culturally. Maybe not in terms of language but in lifestyle and taste, yes. well even in language there are a lot of differences.

then there is the fact that the southwest is being taken back by Spanish speakers. The U.S. has half the population of Europe spread across an area of equal size.
whatever you say Mr. American scholar, constitutional lawyer, colleges admission expert.
You attended some school that marketed itself with an cliched american theme in taiwan. if you think that counts as an American education then you are dumb.

Why do you people keep thinking I have never left the U.S.?
bwahahahahahahahahahah
cannot believe this is a POLITICAL SCIENCE major doing these sorts of exercises.
size has nothing to do with cultural diversity. there's an area in southern africa smaller than texas which has more cultural and lingual diversity than all of europe. GG.
and don't you guys make generalisations about russia and china and africa all the time? OMG LOOK AT THE SIZE OF RUSSIA! must be the most diverse place on the planet.

i like the fact that macbeth won't even go to half of the US states because, as he says himself, they are boring and shit and forgettable (pretty much the entire mid-west and south, as he has said in conversation with EM). but then he'll stress some land-mass figure as if the size of america makes it as varied and diverse as europe. lol WTF. each individual country in europe has its own language, people, culture, history, cuisine, architecture, art, etc. it is NOT the same thing. not to mention each european nation has centuries if not millenia of history behind it. saying america is the same size as europe, therefore talking about america in general terms is the same as talking about europe... HOW is a polisci major this fucking retarded? HOW?!? it astonishes me. there is more difference between denmark and italy than there is between every single US state. period.
Antarctica beats both the USA and Europe in terms of land mass cultural diversity.
Oh, wait, without the ice, the actual land mass cultural diversity is smaller.

I was watching the Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode last night where they were trying to road trip to the grand canyon. Charlie was scared to leave Philly because he never had before and he though the people might be mean dicks.
Macbeth is Charlie. 100%.

Actually one of the best episodes.

As much as I love America I gotta disagree with macbeth. You can travel anywhere in America and 1) understand people, 2) use the same currency, 3) here the same shit on the radio and on the TV, 4) listen to people bitch about the same government
drive for 2-3 hours in europe and the road signs will be different, people will dress different, talk different, act different, live in different shaped houses, listen to different radio/music, eat different food, subscribe to a different political system and possibly even a different faith. but yes, because america is the size of europe, it is de facto as diverse.
