     @mcnees i come from the smallest of the Greater Antilles, Puerto Rico and pics like this remind me how fucking HUUUGE are the United States.

     this country is so massive y'all are calling lakes what are obviously frigging landlocked SEAS, what with all those sandy beaches.

     i mean... y'all can't see Canada, like AT ALL. that's a massive distance!!!

     @blogdiva we drove for almost seven hours yesterday and didn’t even travel half of its perimeter.

     @mcnees ok, first off, i had no idea Lake Michigan is completely in the US and is the largest lake in the world by land mass?!?! that's friggin' bananas.

     i perused wikipedia real quickly:

     Puerto Rico = 3,515 sq mi
     Lake Michigan = 22,404 sq mi

     my brain can't process a landlocked body of water that big. ALMOST 7 TIMES THE SIZE OF PUERTO RICO!

     btw: the island is to puertoricans what bananas are to Reddit. we totally use it for scale, LOL

     @mcnees 🤯 🤯 🤯 🤯 🤯

     i mean, it's almost 7 times the size of PR.

     without traffic; you can travel around the island continuously for about 5 hours. across, it's about 3.

     that's ginourmous. jeezus.
