It's a mix. My community use to be a farmtown, but it's become a pretty good suburb and I think we're heading toward becoming a city like Riverside or San Diego since we have a shitload of good wineries out here, so it's a mix between both rural and urban.

The east coast is dense because of the Appalachians. Between the left side of the frycook and the Appalachians is denser than the Great Plains because that's about where American territory stopped for a while, and the areas further west were just more remote and often less pleasant to live in. The west coast is dense because of its climate.

Not that anon.
Meat loaf, in America, really depends on how your family makes it. Basically it's meat, made in a loaf that looks like bread and typical had ketchup on it. Depending on your family, it could be %100 beef or a mix of different meats such as beef, pork or chicken. It's good, m8. Come to Americs so we can make it for you.

common misconception, I've lived all across the south my whole life and people just say the name of what they drink.

Sweet tea, coke, pepsi, root beer, sprite, mountain dew, etc.

I've never seen coke referring to any drink, if anything the only time I've seen any real problems about it is when a franchise doesn't carry a certain drink company, like if they only have pepsi products or coke products.

Yeah, how the fuck is SLO a part of the LA megaregion? Like, they occasionally film up there? Is that the sum total of connection those two places have? Separated by two mountain ranges, no rivers connecting, even completely different ocean currents.

The Las Vegas- LA meme is retarded too, but desert rats get mad whenever this is criticized so I've stopped fighting.

To be perfectly honest, megacities need to be their own separate districts distinct from anywhere else in the state. They should have extra weight of course, due to the population density, but too much gerrymandering bullshit split cities into multiple counties so one side can get more votes with less population.

Megacities also shouldn't be able to decide the laws of the entire state. Places like New York City decide the laws for the entirety of New York, even if voting demographics usually have every county except NYC voting opposite.

Because the west is barren.

The east is fertile. The river basin of the Mississippi.

That's why.
>>
>>2297969
>>2297975
>>2299061

Completely false. If the western / Rockies states had more fertile land than the east, then people would move there.

But it doesn't, so they didn't.

For example, California clearly DOES have fertile land, which is why people moved and established cities there, which is why it's now the most populous state in the Union.

You stupid fucking morons.

"Pop" is what we used to call it in England. So that's probably where you got it from. My grandma still calls it "fizzy pop".

"Soda" is almost certainly an Americanism, because we don't say it at all.

We say "fizzy drinks".

I've been saying that for a while, cities are entirely seperate entities from the rest of the country and need to be handled as such. Too often does the rural and the urban come into conflict due to their radically different needs and each pushing what works for them on someone else.

I've noticed two distinct dialects in my region, typically one spoken by descendents of southern anglos and one spoke by non-anglos, which often has rare mannerisms picked up from the original language. Typically, Anglo descendents have a semi-distinct southern accent, though slightly different from the true southern accent many expect, while non-anglo typically speak something similar to broadcasted American English with little accent overall barring a few quirks here and there.

Overall, I think the advent of mass media is slowly destroying localized accents, and it's not inconceivable that the US will slowly lose regional accents and eventually begin to affect the British overseas in small manners as well. (Already, I've heard tales of some regions of Britain abandoning small things like "mum" in favor of "mom" and other very minor changes.)

In California an equal number of people from each party plus an equal number of independents, chosen at random from a Legislature approved list.

Then they make a plan, allow for the public to comment on it, then vote on it. They need like 60% approval and a majority from each party's representatives for it to actually pass.

They just have to keep compromising basically, so that no side dominants the map.
