Every State in the US REACTION!! | OFFICE BLOKES REACT!! 

I wonder how people will say this :I

In Europe, if you ask someone how far it is to a city, they'll give you the distance in kilometres or miles. In the US and Canada, they'll give you the distance in the time it takes to get there....

@@coasterguy so so true. Sometimes we'll give both but ur right's usually we say how long (give or take) it takes to get there at what speed.

@@meghanschuler4739 "Hey when you getting to Phil's?" "I'll be there in 10." "Don't you lie to me, this is important." "Calm down will ya? You drive like my grandmother and that's a fact."

@@foxygamer1337 I said give or take lmao. Fair enough tho.

No, it wasn't mostly true. Federal statutes have been around since 1789, and they are revised every six years. They were only first published in 1926 though.

@Donk Fish exactly. It's not that u won't be arrested it's that no one lives there so u cant be convicted for murder without a jury of ur peers. So eventually they have to let u go.

@Donk Fish Tut-tut. The point is that the jury of peers has to be selected from "where the crime was committed", not from "where you live". Meghan Schuler gets the point.

@Donk Fish Where the crime was committed, not where the murdered was from. I'm so confused how this is going over your head.

@Donk Fish Another visitor to the park, you seem confused about the wrong thing. If two people visit the park from another state and one kills the other, the authorities won't have the trial back in the other state. That's not how it works, it happens in the state the crime took place in. It seems like you think only one person can visit this park at a time, that's not true either. There's thousands of visitors to Yellowstone a year, many of them injured by buffalo because they're stupid.

Great place to live 👍🏻

People just hate to hate. Without getting to actually know it.

Americans are far too sensitive about their country and yes regrettably I am American

Konformation07 everyone is protective of their homeland. America is a cool place to live, try it and see is what I say. 👍🏻

@@officeblokedaz I like the geography. I live in Washington state in the northwest and some of the people are nice but the politics and politicians of the country as a whole are disgusting and I hate it. Lots of ignorance amongst the people as well. However, no place on Earth is perfect and I will never claim that. I've been to the UK and I enjoyed it even though I'm sure you would have plenty of criticisms about it. However unlike other countries Americans more than any other country really lash out at the mere criticism of it. Yet America's actions on the world stage are indeed worthy of criticism. Great video and the US is a big and varied place.

Kansas City, MO and Kansas City, KS are two separate cities. KCMO dwarfs KCKS.

@@LG123ABC Kinda, sorta. They may be legally different entities for obvious reasons But geographically, it's effectively city. If one were to take a satellite view without borders, it would look like one city. One can drive through parts of it and cross over state borders multiple times. Either way, the original video is not correct in its claim.

Hi L.G. 😊 I grew up in KCK ❤. Been in South Carolina since 1975 and back when I was in KC the "KCK vs. KC, Mo." questions, arguments, statements, etc. Were an everyday thing then, too. I guess it will be FOREVER!!! LOL

@@DianaJG8 So true. I was an Army brat stationed at Fort Leavenworth in the early 90's, but made many a trip to KC. It's also where I developed my love for football and been a Chiefs fan ever since.

Kansas City, Kansas is as much Kansas City, Missouri as Prairie Village, Kansas is Kansas City, Missouri. It's the same metropolitan area.

god bless you man. i would get so fatigued by all the politics. I'm in Atlanta and we got a taste of it this year. so glad it's all over...for now :-/

@@demondeacon5175 it’s so strange because Portland is known as being super progressive (and it is) but it’s also got a crazy amount of white supremacists and nazi groups because they want to take on all the liberals. so there’s hardly a time where there’s not clashes

@@WTDProductions Yeah I heard that the Pacific Northwest has that problem.

I was there for 10 days, I enjoyed it. But man there are so many homeless, and I’ve never heard so many people talk about politics so openly wherever they happen to be. I’d definitely go back just for the food.

@@chenstormstout9456 I love Portland, but you have to be ready for how extreme the politics are. And the homeless problem is growing so fast because of how quickly Portland is growing in population but the housing prices are insane

Yes, that was a particularly good one IMO.

Always interesting to see non-American's reactions to it, since they usually have no idea about most of what went down.

There are some significant inaccuracies and misconceptions in that video.

They have

@@joshclouse7378 nah that was Lav Luka, bromethius.

Agreed. KCMO and KCK. You have to have lived in in KC to pick that out though. Plus Leawood and Mission Hills also span the state line.

@@rich7447 Yep

That's what I thought

I heard him say that and thought the exact same way. I've been to KC tons of times, both in MO and KS. I think that guy might want to do a little more research.

@@rich7447 I live in IN and I know he said it wrong.

Hey Ann 🌹

@@danjumohmuhammed1945 first of all you forgot an a. Second of all stop creeping on girls bro

i can say the same when they mention california, like not everyone lives in LA and not everyone here works in hollywood. Cali is way more than all of that and New York is much more than just time square and skyscrapers..

@@evelyndelao9372 mhm

@@evelyndelao9372 Hey Evelyn

Well at least there's Hell's Kitchen..

It's because it was the entry point for millions of immigrants from all over the world for several years...and also one of the earlier settlements of the British that later became Americans.

If you research you'll find that Many states have names from other places. Not really a biggie.

We have that in Cleveland too

There's a Coventry in connecticuit too

@@amishlaptop 216 represent!!!

My brother lives in Coventry, R.I.!!

Also in NY, Conn, Vermont and Ohio

Thanks!

@@OfficeBlokes Meanwhile, we are like porno to you. You recoil in disgust, but can't stop watching us, you know what I mean? Why? Thank goodness there is an ocean between us, not even having a war to get rid of you has worked. You don'g get a hint, do you?

Kentucky as well.

from where I live in the US anywhere I can drive within a day almost two days still speaks English

Well said, bravo! Another point is that the US is represented by pretty much every culture from around the world, as people have emigrated from their countries to the US. I have visited “China Town” in Los Angeles and San Francisco and they are very close communities to their mainland families. So if we want to experience their culture, we don’t have to look very far. I live in Texas and have visited many of the states in this video and there is so much more to each state than this, that we can never fully learn everything.

Didnt you just prove their point....

@@emycakes8663 i dont think op was really trying to prove them wrong, just say that its unfair to call us selfish when we’re in a much different situation than people in, say, a european country.

@@emycakes8663 No. Not really. I’ve also traveled to other foreign nations like the UK, France, Spain, Italy, Mexico, Canada, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, China, Japan, Philippines and Texas.

Ewwww Dewey, jk. I live in aslut

I envy you. I live in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania, and we have some stop lights so close together, you can only fit a couple of cars between them. It's like the city planners just went insane with the stop lights.

JAKE the KANGAL I mean it’s basically part of Kentucky. But I have to ask as a New Jersey resident, why can’t you guys drive?

because its unique and interesting place. Being in Indiana I could say the same about the Speedway when theres a lot of other things in the state but it is what it is.

Try being a resident of West Virginia.

@@rjmidwest6911 yeah I understand...i get what you mean...but it still annoys me.lol

@@darthmalgus232 So burning a couch then?

Coventry.. like witches or somethin?

There’s witches in a lot of places in America to be fair

@@jennicole7312 i was mostly clowning

@@tuckerrichardson2606 I’m not kidding though 😂 there are actually witches or at least people who identify as witches

@@jennicole7312 oh I know lol I'm norse pagan so I've been exposed to wicca and the like lol

Loved that Stephen Fry doc. My favorite part was the football game in Alabama. That brief part of one episode pretty much summed up his entire adventure.

Knew someone from casper a few years ago. Considering there's only 60k people in Casper, I can't believe I saw a comment from someone else from that town lol

@@joshjohnson2753 what are the odds eh lol

@@Nonchalluminati Absolutely crazy haha. Was a good friend, your comment made me think of her and I ended up sending a what's up text 😂

Growing up there before the mall was built, I can remember when the downtown JCPenney and Sears stores had escalators. The airport had them, too. I think the Lou Taubert store did.

Good ol Casper lol. I'm from Rock Springs myself

...... What state are you in, because I learned all this stuff in school in Idaho?

It always makes me bristle to hear someone from another country suggest that America is too big to be one country. We are Americans, we grew up with our identity as one nation. I have lived in several states, some quite far from the others,.... was always America. Max Jones is from Kansas (I have never been to Kansas) and I am SURE Max Jones is just as American as I am. Driving from Miami to NY to spend Christmas with my grandparents (picking up my uncle in Philadelphia on the way) was just as normal as going to my cousin's wedding in San Antonio [that cousin's sister will be getting married this summer in North Carolina], or my sister's graduation ceremony in Washington D.C. Sure you can travel from Los Angeles to Kansas to New York and there will be differences in dialect, fashion, food, and political ideas. But not more than Brighton, Manchester, and Morpeth. Or, if they are even more different, that is great, it is a big country, room for all of them. ((If I had been born and raised in 1 country in Europe, I'm sure I would feel the opposite way. I understand that, it is how we are programmed from birth.)) The same way we are programmed from birth to think of ourself as one country. In elementary school, my Spanish teacher was Cuban, my History teacher was from Hong Kong, and my homeroom teacher was the grandchild of slaves (and most of my teachers graduated university in some other state), that just seems normal to us.

@@VideoNozoki We haven't had a shared identity as Americans since like 1965, lol.

@@VideoNozoki Exactly. I've traveled all over the country working and when I pulled into town I could by instinct know where to find whatever I was looking for. I can remember thinking every town is so like every other town and I was wondering if that's good or bad. When you go to Europe... what's the first thing they say to you... "I could tell you were American." You know that if we weren't 50 states as big with economies as large as most countries... we wouldn't have gone to the moon or many other things future and past.

I feel for you... I'm in FL and went across the 4 mile bridge and couldn't see land.. it's weird and you start thinking about what if your car fell from that high up, etc.

South Carolina, at the base of those same mountains. Hey neighbor!

And really creepy trees. With that vine or what ever taking over.

@@AnimalAce Kudzu? It's supposedly native to Japan, I've heard. I remember seeing it all over as a kid, but don't notice it as much now (I'll be 50 in a month). I do know it's still fairly rampant in GA; my brother lives in north GA and there's quite a bit of the stuff around there.

@@KG-xt4oq Maybe im remembering south Carolina, I just remember it was creepy.

@@AnimalAce No, you're correct. I remember seeing it around a lot as a kid, just not as much now...was born in NC and live in NC now.

I was about to type this, and am also from NoDak. Every state has its own governor, who basically acts as the prime minister of that state

@@Eaglemna how's this winter treatin ya its been rough in stutsman even had a power line go out near my families ranch

Just wait till they see china

@@hayliew611 From Fargo but currently reside in Charlotte. Winter is better here but underrated observation is that summer is much more timid as well. No more 60 degrees and raining, then next day 98 and hot-windy. Once you leave you realize just how bizarre the climate is there

There is actually a bill working it's way through the Texas state legislature to allow us to hold a referendum on Texas secession.

My family's best friends live in Ewing/Rose Hill area

You're from Fort Wayne too?

You're from Fort Wayne too, nice

ALL MAIL MAYOR MITTENS!

How stinking cute!!!

in Idyllwild, California has a golden retriever named Max II as mayor

I'm sorry but .. it's really hard to take seriously a country that would allow an animal to be elected to public office :D :D :D

i wish i read this yesterday.. hmm

Not technically wrong. 100% wrong. All national parks are federal land and the land is only managed by the state it's in and does not belong to it. Federal land has it's own statutes to ensure that people can't get away with crimes like murder. The crime then becomes a federal crime and the penalties are much more severe than any state crime. Narrator had no idea what he was talking about there.

@@time.worn-soul8243 but they still can have jury of their peers. If there are no peers, there technically is no trial

Technically you can't be prosecuted but the government will find a way.

@@OrbiTiZZeD lmao

Lav luka?

interesting to note you moved from the only two states where you couldnt pump your own gas, though I know some places in Oregon have relaxed that restriction fairly recently

@@Tarv1 True, which was great in bad weather in NJ, but I would prefer to do it myself if I could here.

Love Stephen Fry! I'll watch anything with him in it. Thanks for the info

@@greedylittleduck1256 :-) You'll adore it.

and I had found a better accent video w/ a linguist actually explaining them around 22 minutes though. love the channel definitely subbing ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H1KP4ztKK0A.html

@@hakunamatata3970 : Great video find. I bet they would find this interesting.

I’m all for people moving for a better opportunity. I did it and urge my children to seek out the same, wherever that may be. 👍🏻

@@officeblokedaz Ya'll sometimes watch hip-hop videos like Eminem & Tech-9, although I dig those cats a lot, I also really like the Hip-Hop artist Aesop Rock. Expertz say he uses the most amount of unique words out of any English speaking emcee(rapper) in the world. I hope you guys can get around to checkin' out some of his stuff. - & also MF DOOM (It's mandatory to spell his name in all caps.)R.I.P. as of last year. Thanks, dude.

Yup! 😊 Divided by a river...WHY has this been so hard for people to grasp for DECADES?? LOL

Same here originally from Boston and now in NH

What I expected from Portland, I found in Seattle. Despite the claims it has a huge homeless issue, I saw none. City smells of coffee, modern art sculptures everywhere, steep hills like San Francisco, pleasant people and view of water. Even the cops were nice and bought me and my friends some pastries. I guess it can be an expensive to live in though.

I have an uncle from Wyoming, your so mean!

@@macrecchia Are you stupid, being sarcastic, or a kid?

Nah, dude. NYC is vibrant and has culture. Upstate is pretty stagnant and its best years are behind it. Believe me I know, I lived in Syracuse for five years.

Shhhh, why ruin the secret. Let's keep the 180 parks to ourselves.

Idc if it's a secret cuz I'm leaving for Eastern Tennessee in a few years anyways

OIC, "in a few years". Gotta wait on the parole board.

Bruh, I haven't graduated high school yet
