    You’d think they might have figured that out with the whole Four Seasons thing…

      This is what happens when you no longer have cybersecurity expert Rudy Giuliani working for you. He just might have sobered up enough to tell them.

        Now they just have a concept of a cybersecurity expert.

    You’d think they’d be able to recognize the one named after a mad king vs the one named after a saint.

      They like the mad king. They have one of their own.

          The funniest part is that the state of Georgia has somewhat similar landscapes they could have used. They just didn’t bother checking. I’m guessing those flowers are not found in abundance on the mountainsides of the U.S. state.

    In 2014 when Russia invaded Georgia, my grandfather rushed out to the gun store to stock up because “it’s only a matter of time before they get to Texas.” It took about a week to convince him that there was a country in Europe that was formerly part of the soviet union called Georgia as well and I don’t think he ever really believed it.

    To be fair, it isn’t a terrible idea to merge entities that have the same name, regardless of context or consequence.

    Georgia: Georgia (country), Georgia (US State), and South Georgia (the UK overseas island territory)

    Washington: Washington State and Washington DC

    Carolina: North and South Carolina

    Dakota: North and South Dakota

    Virginia: Virginia and West Virginia

    For funsies let’s do it with companies as well

    Delta Airlines and Delta Faucet (the plumbing supplies company)

    Dominos Pizza and Domino Sugar

    United Airlines and United Van Lines

    X (Twitter) and X.org, provided that X.org takes full ownership away from Elon

    Just mash them all together!

    If there’s another January 6th, hopefully the folks who want to participate in the insurrection travel to Washington State, not DC.

      Why would you wish that upon the good people of Washington state?

    And people still think they should be in charge of the pointy ends aimed outwards and at citizens and can be trusted to get it right.

    This is a simple mistake anyone could make. OTOH, something about that pic doesn’t say Georgia, USA to me. Flowers like that in the South? And the greenery would be more lush.
