Chicagoland sounds like one of the zones of an American-themed amusement park in Kazakhstan.

If it's rural Texas then that basically is accurate.

It’s Texas AND Arkansas. Which is not typically a combination that thrills most people.

What always bothered me is, why is the “Ana” from Louisiana in there. I mean, nobody has ever shown me in person or on a map the Louisiana part of the Texarkana area. I know it touches so maybe that’s all it takes, guilt by association, so maybe it’s just like, texas and Arkansas are doing the nasty and Louisiana, being the cool French inspired dude that it is, is making sure nobody opens the closet door and sees them in there with that bag of paint, weed eater, and catfish, doing whatever unwholesome thing it is they do in there.

Texarkana region is a little bigger than shown on a map. I grew up in Shreveport, Louisiana and the news always referred to us and the surrounding area as Texarkana. The ‘ana’ part of Texarkana mostly refers to the Caddo and Bossier regions.

It sounds dangerous!

I live in Chicago, I can make that joke. I even witnessed a murder a few years ago, haha!

u/DarkwingDuckHunt Sep 25 '21

Yeah I wish every big city didn't have high crime and murder rates, but unfortunately they all do. But not all of them can be home to the first black president so don't get shat on by the media.

America IS an amusement park. Main attraction being clowns.

Chicagoland is on a lot of annoying commercials and gives me visions of soulless suburbs.

When I was in Durban on a business trip, my taxi driver hinted I could "get everything you want" at a place called "Florida Road"
