Alert: The Maps Thread

When Bertolt Brecht visited the US, he fully expected to take a boat from Chicago to California. Maybe this was the map he was relying upon.

 

Ah yes, the Northwest Passage Express.

 

Or via Cape Horn if you're not in a hurry.

 

I’ll take that. SLC is right on I-80.

 

I've just kind of always thought of the Dallas logo as glitzy, showy, that sort of thing. It does represent one of the most recognizable logos in North American sports. tho. To me they are the Corporate Team, with Roger Staubach's CEO-lookin' self leading the pack. "America's Team"... Oh, the shameless self-promotion...

The Steelers logo is subtle, representing humility, and the one side only logo placement represents financial thriftiness and responsibility. I've heard that they asked US Steel for permission to use their logo because they chose to spend the money they would have paid a design firm to feed hungry children instead.

They looked best in blue and white. I've said it for years.

Baseball and NBA logos largely suck. They just do. Except the Yankees. They transcend that font thing. It's perfect. And I'm a Braves fan. to whatever degree I care about baseball.

 

Great baseball logo



Top old school hockey logo

Pretty sure black women are, by that definition, the smartest demographic by a mile.

 

US states scaled proportionally to population density.

 

Darn....no wonder I can't get a date!

 

Odd since there are so many more Gladys's available at your age

 

Damn. That’s a big country.

 

And dreams stay with you

 

Was going to say cousin f-ing, ranching and buffaloes

 

It's our version of Saudi Arabia's Empty Quarter.

 

Etc., etc., etc.

 

3-4 months of year. Then what?

 

How in dafuq? Were they nekkid?
