But....a lot of people can name all fifty states...can't they?

I mean, I can not only name them (not alphabetically, I usually work west to east) but draw a rough map of the states from memory.

I don't have all their capitals memorized anymore, but I can remember a good half of them.

It's the Onion. It's satirical.

That's a new one on me; I've never heard of satirical patriotism before. (Or should there be quotes around the word patriotism in that sentence?)

The Onion itself is a satirical publication...

[marveen.livejournal.com]

You restate my point.

You're not making any sense. The onion prints satire. It's nearing the 4th. The Onion, therefore, is printing related satirical pieces.

Pfft. Not only can I name all 50 states in alphabetical order, I can do it in song.
