Alaska's revenge

The absolutely chaotic choice to label Pike's Peak really made this for me.
- They respect a good mtn
  
  European here, is pike's peak high?
  
  mtn
  Means To Notice?
- I suppose it's a jab that out of all 900 square light years of Alaska a lot of those inset maps will only call out Denali.
Reminds me of this gem from The New Yorker:
- Utah is definitely not south of Vegas
  
  Metaphorically it is
I like how they cut Texas off at the 'nards
- Hey it’s more than Michigan got, though maybe we belong to Canada on this map, if so I accept on behalf of the ‘ganders.
  
  When it's time, I'm sure Canada will love to have you join. Get your application in soon, though, as the worry is a lot of regions will want to join soon - your leader activated his secret police, often an escalation milestone - and there could be a processing* delay.
  (Which we pronounce like 'chosen' or 'pronounce' or 'pronoun', if you want to practice now)
- They commissioned bugs Bunny to use the crust cutting saw
- It’s because they imagine everything in city blocks
I love the half-assed attempt at the shape, especially Texas. Chef's kiss.
Get a real peninsula instead of that little cocklet you have hanging in the Atlantic.
- I must be signed into the wrong account, this isn't where I normally find Small Peninsula Humiliation
Wait Rhode Island isn't labelled on the inset, rude.
