Strange Maps

  • Nice find! It does scare me to think that after the apocalypse, future historians will be piecing together our history from Bruce Springsteen lyrics.
  • Favorited.
  • Ha! The Grey Havens was in Stab City. Nice link quidmunch.
  • Thanks, korky.
  • You just made my day, quid. *bows*
  • I really like that map of US states renamed as countries, based on similar GDP (here). Great find, quid! Someone should send this guy a map of Moceania.
  • Oh hey, that Middle Earth map got posted here before, didn't it? Or was that in the Blue Hole? Either way, I didn't really check out the rest of the site before, so this is much appreciated.
  • Damn, good find. You shall henceforth be my cartographer.
  • Lovely link, with lots of other ideas for linking! So much for getting anything accomplished today.
  • France has the whole red state/blue state concept ass-backwards. Typical.
  • Ah, sweet Moceania. Home of my heart. How I did dance across the Postworthy Plains. How we sailed the briny waters around Cape Cockpunch. Good times, good times.
  • I wonder what the fare is between Gruel Village and Rodtown?
  • A yum site, begorrah, Mr Quid. I like the "where evolution is taught in the US" map. Who knew Maine was such a backward place?
  • "Boleslav the Wrymouthed" would be a pretty sweet username imho
  • Spot-on. No need to be humble about it.
  • I wonder what the fare is between Gruel Village and Rodtown? I don't know but I would definitely stay away from Rodtown.
  • VERY GOOD
  • I sense a new addiction coming on.
  • Pretty shweet, quidnunc. Kuds.
  • Me love maps.
  • Sees map, clears throat, stands to sing the Monkey Anthem. Ah, sweet Moceania. Home of my heart. How I did dance across the Postworthy Plains. How we sailed the briny waters around Cape Cockpunch. REFRAIN Good times, good times. Good times, good times. Good times... *button pops, exposing boob ...good tiiiiiiiimmmmeeeess.
  • /monocle flies out of eye
  • /pulls Emergency Pastie out of handbag, throws to BlueHorse frisbee-style
  • /hangs on chow line
  • /wonders if the exposed boob is also mandatory for males, when singing monkey anthem
  • Cartozoology n. The science or practice of discovering and studying animals outlined paradigmatically by street layouts as they appear on maps, especially with reference to physical evidence of the animals’ presence in the corresponding terrain.
  • /adds a /-type comment
  • Very cool!!
  • Flags, when rendering the Moceania National Anthem, high notes are mandatory (you may need to pinch some sensitive portion of the anatomy to reach them,) but boobs (and pants) are ALWAYS optional. ...good tiiiiiiiimmmmeeeess. I would certainly hope the next meetup would include a rendering of this lovely piece recorded via webcam and posted on YouTube for our titillation auricular enjoyment. Please remember your dress code! *frowns
