About
The Map of U.S. Cultural Stereotypes refers to an image macro of a drawing of the United States, with each state labeled by a cultural signifier meant to poke fun at its cultural image in the country, such as "Gays & Vegans" for California and "Chaos" for Florida. The meme is similar to several other map parodies, such as The World According to and Jesusland.
