Virgin Texas vs Chad Africa

No, it was a a simple plug and play meme, maybe like "the African Chad" would have made the double joke clear. It's just subtext as is.

This just in... North America is also larger than Texas!

Africa > Texas

[–] DigitalAudio@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

For many Americans, perhaps this shows just how big Africa is, but conversely I feel that I had never expected Texas to be that big tbh
