#TakeThreeThursday #TTT @dabbe

Kansas, you really are in the middle, aren't you? And yes, Maryland is BELOW Connecticut for Pete's sake. And New Hampshire is EAST of Vermont. Sheesh.

Middle of the country, the New England small states, and the southeast (except Florida). Yikes! 1st score: 42/50 ... played two more times until I got it right. I just had to.

dabbe @GingerAntics Thanks so much for asking! I'm actually sorer today than yesterday. I did get to take a shower, though, so that's a plus. I just need to let the old body heal. 🧡🍁🤎 4w

GingerAntics @dabbe great excuse to relax on the couch and enjoy a good book or two! 4w

Singout I‘m a Canadian and got them in 60 clicks: thanks to Mom and Dad for that big trip to Florida and back when I was 14! The mushy middle (sorry, Kansas) is always what messes me up. 4w

dabbe @Singout #wootwoot! You're not alone! We Americans are like 😳 with all the states that are squares/rectangles! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🧡🍁♥️ 4w

JenlovesJT47 96% 1mo

OriginalCyn620 Thanks for the tag! 😊 1mo

LiseWorks As a Canadian, I have an excuse for only having 26 % Ask me about Canada now! 🇨🇦 1mo

See All 41 Comments

ElizaMarie Ha!!! 74!!! I used to know all the states and the capitals. Now - lost! Also I missed some of the states I had even worked in!!! Wow! 1mo

TheKidUpstairs I'm actually surprised that I was able to get 70% - all the middle states are a jumble to me (I'm Canadian, so I'm pretty happy with this result!) 1mo

Librarybelle Full transparency: I scored 94%. However, for 2 of the 3 I “missed,” my finger hit an adjacent state (I know where PA is on the map! I swore I touched the state). So, it‘s more of a 49/50. Not easy to do this on my phone. 😂 1mo

TheAromaofBooks I did get all the states 🎉 But know that I would 100% fail if this was a map of Europe 😂 1mo

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 #wootwoot! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @OriginalCyn620 YW! 🧡🍁♥️ 1mo

dabbe @LiseWorks I wonder if that same link has a Canadian quiz? I'll have to check it out! And kudos for 26%! I don't know how poorly I'd score on Canada, but it'd be pretty low! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @ElizaMarie The middle of our country and the New England area gets me every time! Especially the little states! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @TheKidUpstairs Wow! That's an amazing score! The middle states get me every time, too, and I live here! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @Librarybelle Oh yeah, trying to not touch the tiny ones when you want a big one is really tough on the phone! All those little states in the northeast! Yikes! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @TheAromaofBooks OMG, so would I. Hmm, that might be a fun future quiz to do! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

Susanita I should have gotten 50 but I blame my fat fingers for my 45 score. 1mo

ImperfectCJ I rock the US States, in part because I've lived in so many of them and have done road trips through all areas but the upper Midwest. So, 100%, and I mostly do the Sporcle quiz for time (my teen and I challenge each other). I'm also decent with Canadian provinces and South American countries, but I'm not as great at European countries (the Balkans get me). I wouldn't do well on Mexican states, either, I don't think. 1mo

ImperfectCJ @dabbe Sporcle has a bunch of different quizzes (Canadian provinces, countries on different continents, etc). My teen used to challenge me on them (after he'd practiced them multiple times). 1mo

BookmarkTavern *cracks knuckles* I got this. 1mo

AnnCrystal Thanks for tag 🥳👍🏼💝. 1mo

Bookwormjillk I got 92% but I only got Maryland wrong because my fingers are too fat and I accidentally touched Delaware. 1mo

AmyG I can‘t do it….keeps freezing and won‘t let me continue. 🙁 1mo

DrSabrinaMoldenReads I am terrible on geography 1mo

Jari-chan I got 36% by sheer luck 🤣😅 And then there was an add telling me to become orange? 🤨🍊 1mo

dabbe @Susanita I'm with ya! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @ImperfectCJ Ooh, thanks for letting me know. Seems like we can have a lot of fun with the Sporcle quizzes. Kudos to your son for doing them! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @Bookwormjillk Yep! Been there done that ... more than once! 🤣 Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙🇺🇸🤍 1mo

dabbe @AmyG Bummer! Try this link: https://www.bls.gov/k12/games/geography-quiz/ 1mo

dabbe @DrSabrinaMoldenReads I hear ya! Especially anywhere outside of this country! 🤣 1mo

dabbe @Jari-chan Yikes! Here's an ad-free link, and yay for 36!!! https://www.bls.gov/k12/games/geography-quiz/ 1mo

mcipher I got 70%, mostly br process of elimination — I apparently know the coasts but NOT the middle 😅 1mo

dabbe @mcipher I hear ya! Thanks for playing and sharing! 💙🇺🇸🤍
1mo

Dilara I got 24. My excuse is that I am not American. However, since I still had to learn them in geography class at school (we weren't tested on them, but we were told to memorise them 😋), it isn't much of an excuse... So I'll blame my lack of sleep instead 😁. I mainly failed on the states in the middle. 1mo

thebacklistbook I used easy mode it took me 260 clicks to get them all. 1mo

AmyG I missed rhode island but only because it‘s so tiny…and my fingers are too big. 🤣 1mo

dabbe @Dilara We all do. They're all boxes for the most part! Thanks for playing and sharing! 💙🇺🇸🤍 4w

dabbe @thebacklistbook Yay for getting all of 'em! Thanks for playing and sharing! 💙🇺🇸🤍 4w

dabbe @AmyG IKR? Bigger than the state! Thanks for playing and sharing! 💙🇺🇸🤍 4w

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick 88% but 2 of the 6 missed were because they're tiny & even my stylus was too big to touch the right spot. There are a few I always mix up and chose wrong each time! 🤣 4w

dabbe @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Me, too! Nebraska & Kansas, Vermont & New Hampshire, Rhode Island & Delaware ... the list goes on! 🤣 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🧡🍁♥️ 4w

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Alabama & Mississippi, Wyoming & Utah, and Missouri & Kansas. I'll remember them for about 2 months and then promptly forget again. All states I've never visited yet. 4w

dabbe @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Same here! 4w

I put my money where my haiku was yesterday.

The Wednesdays | Julie Bourbeau

We do not care that our promised three-week sub job between Thanksgiving and Christmas fell through. I was already wondering what I had been thinking to accept! Who wants to be tied down every day during that magical season? We do not care that that money would have helped with Christmas expenses—time to be less materialistic! 😂 JK—I‘m still giving gifts! 😁🧑‍🎄
