These funny maps were generated in a series of random ways, but what they reveal about Nutmeggers and how the rest of the world sees us is pretty funny, and occasionally very confusing. If we’d had maps like this is geography class, I might have paid more attention!

  1. Connecticut is boring?

FlipCollective Clearly, people have never been to our state! Maybe our small towns and colonial chic setup gives the illusion that we’re boring, but Nutmeggers know this place is full of attractions. Maybe it’s for the best though. The less people know about us, the less we have to share!

  1. Apparently, we really like the Wu-Tang Clan.

Estately Either the older folks are reminiscing, or the kids are just now discovering, but either way we made a lot of searches.

  1. We are not on people’s minds.

BuzzFeed Via knowmore.washingtonpost.com I think that’s just because we’re next to a big city. When they get tired of the nonstop noise and the strange smells they always remember where to find us.

  1. Forget about New England. We’re New Italy now!

ALPHADESIGNER I grew up with my fair share of Italians, but it looks like it’s their state now. Between apizza and cannoli, I can’t say I mind though.

  1. Have you ever used “glawackus” in a sentence?

ijreview A monster of local legend, he may gobble you up with his razor sharp teeth. With a word like this, we’re not looking so boring anymore, huh?

  1. Apparently we are the land of white privilege.

Buzzfeed/Tom Phillips In our defense, we do pay ridiculously high taxes. And a lot of immigrant history as well, so maybe they’re just judging us for our picturesque views.

  1. Only the brave live here.

FlipCollective Looks like we are gaining a reputation for paranormal activity. Have you had any run ins with ghosts lately?

  1. We’re full of pride and a little greedy.

Tom/Bored Panda That’s just because we want to keep our little state all to ourselves. And who can blame us? Even with the hauntings, monsters and privilege, folks love this state. You’ll just have to see it to believe it.

Did any of these make you laugh out loud?
