This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I believe this is closer to reality. I forgot an east coast subgroup.
edit: It's called the mid atlantic and people are big mad about its exclusion on a shitty, crude map in context to a discussion about the Midwest. lmao

Idaho should be in the Rockies and perhaps all of Utah.
I'll concede Idaho. Utah is iffy.

Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey are not New England. They’d disagree with that assessment, as would those from New England.
Have they tried not being so crammed in there?
My comment said "closer to reality".
I never claimed to be the leading expert with possession of omnipotent peer reviewed literature and a Supreme Court ruling.
Mid Altlantic exists as well.
Philadelphian here...swallowing my vomit after being grouped with new england
Have some water.
Nothing PA is midwestern. Nothing PA is New England. Nothing PA is The South.
So, does PA get it's own, like TX?
PA, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and maybe Maryland are considered the Mid Atlantic.
They are not New England, but they are the Northeast.
Maybe an east coast subgroup could contain ... OH I DON'T KNOW ... MAYBE NEW YORK, NEW JERSEY, and most of PA????!!! mfrs are pedantic af over a finger drawn map.
