With the new regime over here we’ve seen a name change for the Gulf of Mexico though no word on whether the new name will be utilized in areas other than the US. Sudan now has a South Sudan and The Republic of Macedonia is now The Republic of North Macedonia. Holland became The Netherlands awhile back,
Turkey is now Turkiye and there is a Republic of Artsakh.
To cope with these changes RockCo introduces the wall map with an automatic timely changeability feature. When the Namibia panhandle decides to become its own country, when yet another -stan is discovered in the Middle East or when the city of Llwddrk emerges in Wales this information will be available on your home network and the map will dutifully change itself to reflect such developments.
Globe version under development.

Ooh, I don't know, I imagine Big Globe is very much against anything which will reduce repeat custom. |
|
| |
No where else in the entire world is using the name "Gulf of America". Most people just think it's sad and funny at the same time. He actually meant to call it the "Golf of America" but didn't realise that "gulf" and "golf" are two different words that sound the same. Meanwhile, with the USA now voting with North Korea and Russia at the UN, the next name change will be New York becoming New Yorkski - you have to laugh - America has become Putin's pet cuckoo land. hahahaha |
|
| |
Oh well, it was so nice here for a while. |
|

Regarding xenzag's obsession with Donald Trump and his quest to turn this site into a monothematic ranthole, there's some science behind this: |
|
| |
Monothematic Delusion – This is a type of delusional disorder where a person becomes fixated on a single, often bizarre belief that is resistant to reason. This could involve grandiose ideas (believing they have discovered the single source of all evil in the world), persecutory beliefs, or body-related delusions (like Cotard's syndrome, where someone believes they are dead). |
|
| |
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) – OCD is a condition where individuals experience intrusive, obsessive thoughts that compel them to engage in repetitive behaviors. Some people with OCD may focus their obsession on a single topic, such as a specific fear, an idea, person or even a scientific concept, to the exclusion of other interests. |
|
| |
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) – Some individuals on the autism spectrum develop intense, narrow interests in specific subjects, which can sometimes appear obsessive. |
|
| |
Perseveration – This is a cognitive phenomenon seen in conditions like traumatic brain injury (TBI) or frontal lobe dysfunction, where a person gets stuck on a particular idea or behavior and has difficulty shifting their focus. |
|
| |
We've gone several months without any political rants or xenophobic hate screeds. Let's try go to back to making this a friendly place for fun ideas, it was really nice here for a while. |
|
| |
That being said xenzag, if you insist on dishing it out, don't be a pussy and play the victim when somebody counters your foaming at the mouth hate speeches. (Including your tiresome "I never once mentioned the T word hahaha" cut and paste drool-fests.) |
|
| |
Wow, I know I'm late to the party, but did [xenzag] go that far over the line? Unless one has devout party loyalties, a little disrespect for the Donald is not entirely uncalled for. Or did we switch to a zero political mention policy while I was away? |
|
| |
He didn't mention Donald Trump. Did you miss the part where he went on his brain dead zombified hate-filled rant about my beloved country? We have free speech here in America, (unlike where he lives), but the thing about that is, a free citizen gets to counter an opinion they don't agree with. |
|
| |
Which I will continue to do. |
|
| |
Or we could just be nice and not insult each other's countries and people, but either way works for me. |
|
| |
All you need do is to control yourself and learn to laugh a little. Meanhile, your obsessive personal attacks on me say more about your state of mind than mine. If you want to poison your own well, that's up to you. |
|
| |
The obvious answer is that the map is printed using a lenticular overlay, so that the lettering changes depending on the viewing angle. If you stand on the left of the map, you will see "Gulf of Mexico" and "New Yorkski" but as you move to the right, the names change. |
|
| |
Oh. Now I think I understand. |
|
| |
[Dr], I live in the US of A also, and it's apparent to anyone that follows current events that we are now a failed state, and that Putin won the cold war. We were defeated by a combination of free speech, ineffective protections against corruption, and a Russian asset who rose to power. |
|
| |
You are, of course, free to speak your mind. |
|
| |
The collapse-in-process of the government that we learned about in school growing up has significant repercussions for the world, and I don't think anyone anywhere who is affected by it would be unreasonable to criticize it. [xenzag], where the hell do you live, anyways? |
|
| |
//We were defeated by … free speech// |
|
| |
Wow, saying the quiet part out loud. Guess you guys blew it by not opening gulags and reeducation camps when you had the chance eh? Oh well, too late now. |
|
| |
Trump was the only president that stood up to Putin such that he didn’t invade any territories on his watch. Unlike he did under Bush, Clinton, Obama (who refused to give weapons to the Ukraine, unlike Trump who did) and of course the biggest Putin victory of all, under Biden. |
|
| |
Anyway, I’m not interested in changing anyone’s opinions on things, that’s not how it works in the real tribe based world anyway. So were any minds changed today? No. Was anything achieved? No. Just more hate. Oh well, comes with the territory I guess. The fun inventions and creativity will return after the hate passes, it always does. |
|
| |
I'd take it to email but I didn't see one on your page. |
|
| |
Free speech is just the path that people both good and bad use to communicate - I don't know where the gulag idea comes from - it appears the line of argument has shifted. |
|
| |
And I see you buy into the Trump worship. No hate on my part, you cannot help the way your amygdala works. You seem to be pretty well informed, so you are probably aware of Trumps recruitment back in the eighties. Why would Putin disrupt things when a functional asset is working? |
|
| |
If you want to take it to email, you know where to find me. |
|
| |
Appreciate the offer but not really into debate for debate’s sake. Just defending my country here is all. |
|
| |
Besides, seeing that Trump worship comment you’re clearly way too brilliant for me. |
|
| |
I'm curious - do you differentiate between your country and your government? |
|
| |
//[xenzag], where the hell do you live, anyways?// That's irrelevant but thankfully it's not in Americanski, as Putin has renamed his easiest conquest. Thankfully, where I live we don't vote in support of North Korea, Sudan, and of course Russia at the United Nations. We also have plenty of nice fresh eggs in our shops... or eggskis as you now call them hahahaha... |
|
| |
Well, I can see how you managed to get under the doctor's skin, although that's not a big challenge apparently. |
|
| |
With prose like that it would be easy to take you for a russki bot, had you not been a 'baker for so long. |
|
| |
In the interest of fairness, I'll pose the same question. |
|
| |
Do you differentiate between your country and your government? |
|
| |
I'm a European. My loyalties are with those who oppose fascist warmongering countries like Putin's Russia, North Korea, Iran etc. Unfortunately those countries now have America in their back pocket. Americanski is with us. Make America Greatski Again. To rename everything to have a Russian name just add ski at the end of it. Try it - it's great fun. From Muski With Love! hahahah |
|
| |
I live in America’s third world, and it is so sad to see the main office in such disarray. From the bleachers, we root for the rule of law and international peace and prosperity, but we have no voice in anything and are blown around by the shifting winds. The absence of responsibility allows for objectivity. |
|
| |
Hard to see how a former friend piling on a guy who is being savaged by a neighbor bully will advance anything resembling fairness and order but I guess people see what they want to see. Yeesh. |
|
| |
Give ‘em enough rope and, if history plays out as it always has, they will be tying themselves in knots. Petards, anyone? |
|
| |
Well, Orangemanbad’s attempt to negotiate an end to this bloody war has failed and I can see you all can barely contain your glee. Yea, thousands more Ukrainians will die but think of the virtue signaling hate posts you’ll get to make. Well worth it eh? |
|
| |
How many have died since guys on your side talked Zelensky out of negotiating an end to this bloody war years ago? Something he was very onboard with at the time. Was it worth it? |
|
| |
Of course it was. Never ending wars forever! Yaayyy! |
|
| |
Oh, and xenzag, really sorry you didn’t get your nuclear war with North Korea, maybe next prez will deliver for you. |
|
| |
Think I'll take up golfski and call myself xenski so I can blend in and become invisible if I ever decide to visit any of Americanski's new best friends in North Korea or Russia. Name changing is brilliant. Everyone's using the name Americanski now. It's spreading like the Ebola that Muski forgot about :-) |
|
| |
Hey Dumbshitski, I put a link up for you to put your money where your mouth is. You want war? Grab a rifle and hit the battlefield. |
|
| |
I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that you are ambassadors for your continent.
How you behave reflects on us all. |
|
| |
Okay, hey Europe, North America here, we fought your wars in WW1, (the war the end all wars, (c) (tm), WW2, the many Communist genocides across the globe and now your latest savagery from Russia. Our thanks? Hate, disrespect, name calling all while begging for more billions that will only be stolen by corrupt warmongers. |
|
| |
Here’s a tip: If you’re too weak to defend yourself might want to study how our people kicked the living shit out of the most powerful global empire the world has ever seen and then declared our independence. |
|
| |
Oh, and fuck Russia. Want help from us YET AGAIN? Might wanna ask nicely. |
|
| |
Hmm, perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned the Gulf of (insert name here). |
|
| |
I also note Zelensky said he’s willing to fight till the last man. Three guesses who that “last man” would be. |
|
| |
By the way, having actually experienced the horrors of war I get pretty pissed when I see keyboard warriors treating it like a video game. Negotiate an end to this horror and bring the the soldiers home to live their lives. |
|
| |
In the spirit of the 'bakery I have upvoted the idea, although I'm certain it will come with a subscription package I will have to provide a credit card number for. |
|
| |
And at some point the software/hardware will cease being supported and I'll be compelled to buy all new. |
|
| |
It's shames me to watch Trump and Vance talk smack to Zelenskyy last night. |
|
| |
Thanks for the link, doctor. I'm already putting my money to the cause. |
|
| |
Forget money, grab a rifle and get over there. |
|
| |
Thanks [19] I had never seen that one. |
|
| |
I wanted to go and fight, I really really did, but my doc says I have these bone spurs...... |
|
| |
Good, best way for you to help the war effort is to stay home. |
