Colorado markedly absent as most people polled were likely from elsewhere and as such brought their own vernacular
Alaskans and Hawaiians are incapable of forming bonds of friendship.
Washington and idaho as well apprently.
I am from Seattle.
Anecdotally:
This is correct.
People are absurdly transactional, performative and superficial about relationships and also very anti social compared to basically anywhere else I've ever been in the US.

Interesting. Can we have have at least a tiny bit of info how this data came to be?
Not just this one, but all the infographs, maps etc. Always leave entirely open if someone just guessed the data for the lulz.
This makes me a litte sad sometimes
So the map is more accurately titled "How American Twitter users refer..."
"White american male twitter users", according to the last paragraph
I could have not clicked that video. But I did. And I regret it.

Seattle Freeze is REAL
As a Washingtonian, as usual, I’m glad to barely be represented on a heat map of something.
Eastern Pennsylvania apparently has no word for Bros.
It's just a nod and a quickly whispered "Go Birds."

I was upset that Kentucky didn't have much coverage, but then I realized that "Hosscat" wasn't one of the choices.
I don't know why but "fella" sounds old fashioned to me.
Cause ya ain't from the south
I'm not from the US either, lol
I'm apparently in the "Pal" region and it's not a word I use often to refer to people, nor have I heard it used often by others either.
We use "Dude" pretty often, but looking at the map you'd think this is a dude desert.
Further down the article this screen’s taken from, they show the raw data they got for “dude”, and its usage is pretty much everywhere.
West coast here. There’s also “man” and “guys.” I use those way more than “dude” lol

The large amounts of no-bro-zones scares me.
People in Georgia and Washington State apparently don't have friends.
Liv3 WA, can confirm.
Been ‘dude’ for me as long as I’ve been alive.
