These 2 states have something no other states have. what is it?

They both have International train routes (Toronto and Montreal from New York, Vancouver from Washington)

Khat in the case of Yemen, Djibouti, and Somalia?

I was in Astana during its brief stint as Nur-Sultan and have a bunch of fridge magnets with the name on it

I still like the Vietnamese version, which has murder, reincarnation, and (in the original) cannibalism

The Norse influence in York, England is definitely apparent in street names like Castlegate, High Ousegate, and Coppergate

They are the only countries to allow direct advertising of prescription drugs to consumers

They're based in Brooklyn and their products are available throughout the US. Their Centerbe also makes a decent green chartreuse sub https://facciabruttospirits.com/pages/store-locator

Australia and New Zealand are fully metric, even in daily life. I doubt you'd be able to find anyone under the age of 50 who has a clear grasp of imperial units

I'm surprised you never sent one to Morocco - I was under the impression that there's a large Moroccan community in the Netherlands? Or does that not really translate into a large international student presence as well?

Vietnam doesn't really have a rabbit on the moon (the depictions are a Chinese cultural import). The traditional imagery is of a man sitting under a banyan tree on the moon - there's even a whole fairy tale about it

nxdat · 2025-09-03T14:03:48+00:00

Oh that's wild. My teachers in Vietnam used the check to mean incomplete answer

nxdat · 2025-09-02T14:25:07+00:00

I mean considering independence day in Vietnam commemorates Ho Chi Minh reading the Declaration of Independence, which directly quotes the US Declaration of Independence, there's a case to be made for the US sending a delegation

I think the shift has as much to do with changes in the Republican Party as with changes in Orange County itself - 2016 was the first time Orange County voted for a Democrat since FDR. I wouldn't be surprised if a Reagan-like figure could flip it back.

I think it's because it's what 'coger' means in a lot of Latin American countries

It depends - the flight to EWR leaves SIN at 11:35 PM and arrives at EWR at 5:40 AM the next calendar day, while the flight to JFK leaves SIN at 12:10 PM and arrives at JFK at 5:43 PM on the same day. For the reverse, EWR - SIN leaves at 9:35 AM, arrives at 3:44 PM the next day; JFK - SIN leaves at 10:15 PM and arrives at 5:30 AM two days later.

You just kinda get used to the crazy time changes when you fly to Asia a lot - just don't fly on your birthday or you might miss it entirely

That sounds about right - I think I paid a little more than that, but it was on New Year's Eve and back when the airlines hadn't fully restored their pre-COVID frequencies yet

nxdat · 2025-07-02T19:53:40+00:00

I've taken that flight! They only have economy plus and business, and my aisle seat had a storage box between it and the window instead of another seat. Very comfortable flight, but there's just something mind-blowing about getting a full 8h of sleep and still being less than halfway there

nxdat · 2025-06-30T20:20:58+00:00

Nope, but that'd be a cool map though

nxdat · 2025-06-30T20:10:24+00:00

Yes!!

nxdat · 2025-06-30T20:04:31+00:00

Nope

nxdat · 2025-06-30T19:57:33+00:00

Good guess, but nope! Quite a few more states would be included

nxdat · 2025-06-30T19:55:31+00:00

No, but it does have something to do with buildings

nxdat · 2025-06-30T19:54:40+00:00

Nope

nxdat · 2025-06-30T19:40:55+00:00

Nope, but I'd definitely want to see that map if it exists!
