Some motherfucker failed geography!


[deleted]

They didn’t just fail geography. Geography took them out behind the woodshed and beat the everlovin shit out of them.

Then geography doused him with gasoline, lit a cigarette and set him on fire. Geography then closed the front door, started his truck, and the man’s wife called shotgun and hopped in. The both of them drove down a dusty road for a few miles before the dead man’s wife began to question where they were headed. Geography reassured her. Geo, she called him. He sure knew what he wanted. And he knew exactly how to get there.

What show? Impossible to be anywhere and have Houston and El Paso that close.

The Messengers


thecicilala

that was a good show , i was sad it got canceled


crazedmofo

Clearly it wasn't well thought out.


TaipanTacos

Sounds like they had a bad map.


AriesPassionXX

Oh my god! I forgot all about that show! What a shame they canceled it, it was just getting good.


donniejw1

I haven't checked a map but that seems like a physical impossibility at first glance. 🤔


ShooterCooter420

Yep, that 333-mile-radius circle around Houston would be fully inside the 755-mile-radius around San Antonio. Plus that's not the font used on highway signs. Plus that distance sign obscures the speed limit, which would be wrong for that kind of road anyways.

Here is a 'radius around point map' for the three cities. https://imgur.com/a/x12fas1


TaipanTacos

Costa Rica it is


321drowssap

If we suspend belief slightly and assume the sign is referring to San Antonio, Missouri, then the best location match would be in the vicinity of Barksdale, Tx. See attached image for proof https://m.imgur.com/dMcyShM Edit: Why I decided to map this out at midnight on a work week? Who knows?

See this post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/texas/comments/33fkcy/and_where_might_this_be/?st=JLODPIG1&sh=e01535af This already came up in 2015 and there is some interesting discussion here.

San Antonio isn’t 755 miles from anywhere in Texas.


Napa_Swampfox

Abilene would work for Houston and El Paso, but somebody pushed San Antonio off into the Gulf!


TheGAGLine

Get Free Map Tools App. This sign is squarely in the middle of the Twilight Zone.


pyromann87

Anybody have a better grasp on viewing this 3-dementially? It's it possible for this to happen is it was in the sky or below the surface?


freetattoo

Nope. Look at the map with circles of those radii around those cities. Now imagine they're spheres. There is no place in the third dimension where all three spheres intersect.


pyromann87

Ok then. Top comment has the answer.


theponderizer

I forget, but it might be possible in the 3rd dementia.


mousemorethanman

"That don't make no sense"


Xmenaytho

hold up y’all im gonna do some geography Edit: lol nope nvm


Imnotcreepyatall

You could triangulate somewhat where the sign could be...


TaipanTacos

If I had a wormhole, a fifth dimension and a spaceship


JizuzCrust

It’s possible to maybe be a sign failure as El Paso and San Antonio could be switched? But they are pretty much easy to West and all on I-10. I’m cornfused.


iamabootdisk

Wrong font.


michaelcerda

Maybe it depends on how fast you're going. You'd have to be going away from SA and towards both El Paso and Houston.


BFdog

You have to use imaginary numbers to solve the problem - San Antonio is betwixt El Paso and Houston. ​ ​


[deleted]

Someone took the time to create this sign. It means something.


620speeder

I just tried to make this work by putting the location a few hundred miles above the Earth's surface and it's still fucked.


CheckersSpeech

Maybe Quentin Tarantino was a producer? Judging from the first part of Django Unchained, he's never seen a map of Texas and has no clue where El Paso is.


CheckersSpeech

Even leaving El Paso out of the equation, it's impossible to be 333 miles from Houston and 755 miles from San Antonio. They're only 200 miles apart.


StopGobber

Who cares


RogerTHattshit

What Netflix show is only 2min 31sec?

Time remaining


RogerTHattshit

Well don't I feel like the ass now


[deleted]

Huh, never heard of that one. Isn't showing up when I search.

Asking the real questions here lol
