Flo(o)d is a pretty fair description of Florida.

ceenote@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 358d

"Wshngton" is basically unchanged. It still sounds the same either way you spell it.

postmateDumbass@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 358d

No more Warshington would be reason enough.

Some of these are great, some are terrible, but mostly Zon feels like it should be the state above it

Where my head went:

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 7 pts · 358d (1 reply)

"What state are you from?"

"Lfon, duh!"

postmateDumbass@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 358d

Sounds like the border between Cali and Idaho.

at least new york is mostly recognizable, proving that we're one of the least american states

postmateDumbass@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 358d

Dho.

Checks out.

We shall invade Ssou and Oklho to unite our lands, and then continue to expand. In time, all shall be Knss, and Knss shall be all.

betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 358d

At least people in the bg pl (or the rest of the p state) won't have to change the way they pronounce it very much.
