xkcd 2999 - Bad Map Projection: The United Stralia
This projection distorts both area and direction, but preserves Melbourne.
I kinda think it should be flipped vertically, so that you have Florida in FNQ, and then NY/PA/MA running down NSW/VIC. Also get Texas for the NT, and Adelaide can be in Minnesota lol
Seems to match weather and politics a bit better, though idk if anything matches up on the west coast. Seattle for Perth? And would that make Broome San Francisco/LA? The US interior is a lot more noisy with states than Australia lol.
but there's a melbourne in florida and that's too funny to pass up
As a Melburnian, I tend to agree.
Bugs Bunny finally sawed off Florida.
I love xkcd and all, but I won't stand for great lake erasure
ACT and Tas can jump in a great lake
The ACT has 3 lakes.
Small ones but they're there
The great lakes extend through the pacific now. It's all lakes baby.
