I'm not expecting much of the internet, you guys, but we should all know where Canada is. It's fucking huge.

 

I say this because last week, before taking a short trip to Kentucky, I decided to do some quick internet research. As I typed in "Kentucky is..." I was greeted with...this:

kentucky

Check out that last one again. Check it good and hard. Intrigued/horrified, I decided to see how some other geographic regions fared. It was not pretty:

alaska

Ah yes, Alaska. The former governorship of former Vice-Presidential nominee (and possible foreign head of state, apparently) Sarah Palin.

Guys, how could England be a fag country if it's not even a country to begin with? It's probably a fag province.

germany

The initial success of the Third Reich's war effort against central Europe is much more impressive when you find out Germany is in South America.

canada

Hoo boy. This one's just sad. But how about a country that's maybe been in the news a lot?

iraq

Never let it be said people are ignorant of the wars being fought in overseas...counties? How about something a bit bigger:

africa

There...there are only seven. It's a short list. Learn it. Love it.

italy

Poor Italy had it the worst. Seriously, no one knows where the fuck you are, Italy.

southafrica

There. Is. No. Excuse.

England is a country, though, not a province.

England is one of the nations that makes up the United Kingdom. Country is an acceptable word...

Elementary school kids google their homework. Seven year olds need to look stuff up somewhere. What are they supposed to do, go to their encyclopedias?

You realize those appear depending on your previous search habits? It's like when I type in "Egypt". Some people get tourist info, some people get wiki pages, some people get news articles on their front page. The more stupid the results, the more stupid your typical search queries are...
