Alaskans and Hawaiians are incapable of forming bonds of friendship.

Interesting. Can we have have at least a tiny bit of info how this data came to be?

Not just this one, but all the infographs, maps etc. Always leave entirely open if someone just guessed the data for the lulz.

This makes me a litte sad sometimes

People in Washington don't refer to each others.

I thought America was mostly NTSC

nice maps, homes!

what happened to man... as in hey man.

Seattle Freeze is REAL

I’m not your bro, pal.

Northeast US left off because they just say "Yo asshole"

As a Washingtonian, as usual, I’m glad to barely be represented on a heat map of something.

I love that New England doesn't show a preference for any of the choices. My theory: Boston throws off the curve with "asshole" and "fucker" and the data scientists didn't want to cover cursing.

Anybody use the word fucker as a term of endearment? "What's up, fucker?"

So there's PAL, where's NTSC, and SÉCAM?

Eastern Pennsylvania apparently has no word for Bros.

I was upset that Kentucky didn't have much coverage, but then I realized that "Hosscat" wasn't one of the choices.

I don't know why but "fella" sounds old fashioned to me.

I'm apparently in the "Pal" region and it's not a word I use often to refer to people, nor have I heard it used often by others either.

We use "Dude" pretty often, but looking at the map you'd think this is a dude desert.

Don't forget "guy" and "chief".

Been ‘dude’ for me as long as I’ve been alive.

People in Georgia and Washington State apparently don't have friends.

Suggests that in Georgia, Americans don't refer to their friends

West coast here. There’s also “man” and “guys.” I use those way more than “dude” lol

Hypothesis: you can go to the Great lakes region and just make random noises and people will be like "hey, what's up?”.

I'm not your pal, guy!

The large amounts of no-bro-zones scares me.

Where is sexy-(square)pants? Man-in-tights? Curly-cock? Dick-broom?

You can call me Al.
