I claimed it for Nathaniel Merriweather a long time ago, in the name of Johan Dandifop and the League of Well-Dressed Gentlemen. We call it Bobsmithville. All the residents are aquatic aficionados.

Also forgot to name the other state between Michigan and Wisconsin.

[–] sugarfoot00@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 hours ago

I think that's because its state changes seasonally.

Name it New Washington so theres even more ambiguity when someone refers to something happening in Washington.

[–] officermike@lemmy.world 22 points 16 hours ago

Or "Bay Area" so people can wonder if the speaker means San Francisco, Tampa, Chesapeake, etc.

[–] callouscomic@lemmy.zip 6 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Capitol is Columbia District, New Washington.

[–] hedgehogging_the_bed@lemmy.world 11 points 16 hours ago

Can we call it the Tri-State so every "Tri-State area" has no hope?

[–] graycube@lemmy.world 36 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

It has a name: "you pee". They just leave ir off of most maps because it is considered nsfw.

U.P. is a reference the great Joycean work, Ulysses. Dennis Breen receives a postcard with just those letters. It excites his madness. Perhaps it is a reference to in ability to satisfy his wife in husbandly manner. Perhaps it's a reference to You urinate, You're no good, You put your fingers up your anus, and You can't get it up any more. Or simply, a reference to Ulysses and Penelope. IOU.

Too many Sovereign Citizens live there. They absolutely refuse to let the region be named, and threaten any politician who tries to do so. Supposedly, this is mandated in the Magna Carta, but scholars are unable to determine the part of the document which supports this reasoning.

They think that living in the “unnamed principality” (or the UP, as it is often called) lets them skirt all kinds of laws, but ironically, often demand a public defender when arrested for violating said laws.

No its there that's the "unnamed state". We finally found New Zealand

[–] callouscomic@lemmy.zip 1 points 14 hours ago

You're right. Send me right to jail.

[–] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 8 points 13 hours ago

It's called the superior state.

[–] Gork@sopuli.xyz 16 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Wisconsin should launch a special military operation on Michigan to take that land as it has ethnic Wisconsinites there.

Ethnic Wisconsinites who are Canadian in Spirit.

[–] sniggleboots@europe.pub 4 points 12 hours ago

that's East Dakota

The fact that Michigan gets Isle Royale too boils my blood as a Minnesotan. They're just greedy expansionists!

[–] waddle_dee@lemmy.world 8 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I love that New Hampshire and Vermont are mislabeled lmao

[–] callouscomic@lemmy.zip 2 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Whatever are you talking about? It's clearly correct and always been that way.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

We don't want it. But we lost a war with Canada and was forced to take it.

Man, it looks like sheer laziness that they can fit "Kentucky" into its state, but "Alabama" gets a pointer line. You're telling me that you can't do the exact same thing you did with "Georgia" there?

[–] TheRtRevKaiser@sh.itjust.works 3 points 15 hours ago

Even the label doesn't want to go to Alabama.
