            I would quote it or somehow explicitly indicate your sarcasm since it doesn’t translate well over text. You can edit post titles.

          Somehow I imagine schools that are just now replacing maps that show the USSR with these products of ego. Like we as a nation are hilariously bad with geography but we don’t need to throw in curve balls to make us look dumber.

            I suspect it’ll remain the gulf of Mexico. Google displays maps in local languages based on your IP, so I assume they’d use the name your country accepts. If you log in from Japan you see the sea of Japan to the west, but if you log in from Korea it’s called the east sea

          There’s a discussion about this at openstreetmaps.

          Presumably at Wikipedia also.

          Determining what things are named is complex.

            Murderface, the villain, has a rocket that he plans to use to push the earth into the sun. But instead it only pushed earth a few feet further from the sun and he was credit with solving global warming and went on to run for president. It was basically the trial run for archer, lot of the same humor, similar characters, and most of the voice actors. Great show. It also spun off as a series called the x-ticles but only had a show or two before the company folded.
