Google Tweeted Out A Map Of The Most Misspelled Word In Each State And It’s Hilariously Cringeworthy
Ah, spelling bees. What are they good for if not making you feel stupider than an elementary schooler? But have no fear, this map of America’s most misspelled words may leave you feeling like a genius yet again.
In honor of the upcoming Scripps Spelling Bee, Google decided to give us a map of each state’s most popular “how to spell _____” query. And honestly, it’s pretty embarrassing for nearly everyone.
Let’s just say this isn’t quite what I expected.
Thought diarrhea would be every state

While some states have pretty understandable search terms (Washington’s “pneumonia” and Pennsylvania’s “sauerkraut”, for instance), others sort of make you want to face palm (or move out of the country).
"Nanny"? Seriously Mississippi?

And for once, we’re not even making fun of states like Florida or Texas.
The exceedingly rare state-by-state analysis in which Florida comes out okay. https://t.co/5W1AlU2ckO

It kind of makes you wonder why so many people were looking up so much of the same search term.
Wait.. But why is #Arkansas Googling Chihuahua so much?

More importantly, it kind of makes you wonder why the hell Wisconsin’s most-searched “how to spell” term is “Wisconsin”.
IN Wisconsin, the word most often searched for under "how to spell" in Google is…Wisconsin!!!! Hahahaha… https://t.co/uP1HT1UGcG

Honestly, we should all be embarrassed.

Not as embarrassing as me not knowing my geography

Here’s a poem to take your mind off the fact that our country has no foreseeable future.
