You _almost_ got me there! But I see enough WA addresses in our data that I caught on.

(And I didn’t see the hidden text until I started to post just now.)

Bikini. If it was a sandal, it would be thongs, plural.

Unless Australians only wear one, in which case they’d be ‘oppin’ 'round like kangaroos.

**Ogre** is clearly one of the _smart_ Alabamans… he realizes “Alabaman” is a grievous insult.

Why settle for a mental image when [Humon has done the work for you](http://satwcomic.com/the-canadian-siblings)?

We probably need an “evil” smiley.

Well, to be fair, I really shouldn’t point fingers. I was born and raised in Iowa. It’s a little-known fact that IOWA is an acronym: Idiots Out Wandering Around.

To be fair, I wouldn’t know one state from another, they all just blend into one big bunch of wankers worth having a dig at. Well that’s what that them wanker Canadians tell me.

Iowa, isn’t that where that wanker Radar O’Reilly hails from?

Alabama, isn’t that where that wanker with the name of Earl from?

Canada, isn’t that a place where US wankers go to get better health care?

Australia, well our number one wanker died in a stingray accident, so there’s no paying us wankers out any more.

Close, but they aren’t pasty and flabby enough.

Well, they try, but we don’t let 'em.
