best running joke. florida doesn't understand mountains. seriously. it's like... 6 states now? that have tried to explain them to him. all unsuccessfully, but i'm proud that he's started taking notes. also, yes, i realize i'm talking about seven instances of the same person, but its fun!
I know I’m late but there is a mountain in the background if his drawing which makes it funnier that he has no clue what one is but he knows what one looks like
Ben, I love you, these always make my day, but if you ever pronounce the Willamette like that again the entire state of Oregon will declare war against you
As an Oregonian you did very well. We are a state of extremes on both sides and it shows. Going to the coast here means bring a sweatshirt no matter what time of the year.
@@madeleinet8937 Same in Montana. There are so many glacier lakes it's hard to find water above 55 degrees in the middle of summer when it's 105 degrees. We swim in the river a lot. It's shallow water so it heats up a lot quicker.
Where I live in southeast Texas, the water is about 80-90 degrees in the summer and the temp during the day is low 90's and mid 70's at night with brown muddy water. At least at the beach, the sand is sand and not mud(looking at you louisiana) In the winter though the water temps drop to 54-59 degrees and temp during the day is low 60's and at night its low 40's. That's when we get a lot of Minnesota and Wisconsin ppl comin down to enjoy the freezing cold water that will make you numb.
When my dad was young, he would listen to the local radio station for the sports scores. He was really listening for Bend, OR high school scores. Because the announcer would say, "Bend over Portland," if Bend won.
LOL. As a native Oregonian, we usually play "spot the out of towners" Everytime it rains, 'cause they're usually the only ones who even own an umbrella.
Sooooo worth it, I have to limit myself to 3 books at a time when I go or I’d spend all day and be broke. They shelve used and new books alongside each other which is awesome!

Hi, from Oregon. And I have come to say I have dealt with a Floridian at a Local Renaissance Faire back in 2019. We told 'Him' it was a Bad Idea to ride the Hood of Car cause he was "Staff" and "On Duty." That night he broke his hip in one of the holes in the Forest Area around the Faire. And we still got the Ambulance going "He's from Florida." calmly to the EMTs. He was then Tent Arrested by the Renaissance Faire Community in Oregon the rest of the weekend. To " Recover." From himself and in I think that same night his Tent Fell on him.
Lovin' it! The whale extraction alliteration was by far my favorite section. Dutch Bros is awesome as they use chocolate milk instead of water to make their hot chocolate (not everyone likes coffee, or coffee-flavored sugar). My parents live a few miles from D River (which flows from D Lake to the Pacific Ocean), so nice to see it show off a little. You're doing great, good sir.
Live in East Washington we get both Starbucks and Dutch bros by the way to much. Quick question do they all get put in the most inconvenient and traffic blocking spots?
@@alphaspursncowboys There's a Dutch Bros in the neighboring town that is apparently only accessible through the trailer park behind it. I spent a confused five minutes one day trying to find the entrance before giving up and going elsewhere.
You can still see the footage of them blowing up the whale on RUclips. Its either the "statesmen Journal" from Salem or the "Oregonian" from Portland. I think its the Oregonian. And one ton of dynamite wasn't nearly enough to blow up the dead whale. They dug a huge pit with a dozer and still they couldn't get it buried properly cause the water table was only three or four yards down. That area stunk for years and huge slabs of blubber and meat landed on peoples cars just trashing the cars including a cop car. The seagulls and coyotes and The neighborhood cats all feasted for a week until the City got it cleaned up. I believe that the state and the company that blasted the whale all got sued for destruction of property. It was a complete clusterf@&k.
Aha! But it's not the only two-sided flag in America! The city of Raleigh, North Carolina also has a two-sided flag! The city seal is on one side and Sir Walter Raleigh's coat of arms is on the other.
I got to the point you said Willamette and had to pause the video to make sure someone had corrected your pronunciation 😂 I'll admit, for a second, I thought of not finishing this video, but my love for you videos won over my dismay. Your videos are just that good. 💗
@@tonymontgomery5827 no, just have visited many times throughout my life. Saw my first whales spouting there. Also, took my one and only deep sea fishing excursion out of Depoe Bay. Sea sickness.
My grandparents owned a cabin at Depoe Bay. We spent lots of great family time in the 70’s and 80’s. It was a completely run down shack but very fun in its rustic way. Now that whole area is now more part of “town” and has apartments in its place.
I love how many fellow Oregonians come swarming out of the woodwork anytime anything in Oregon is mispronounced. I always tell people "It's Ore-gin, not Ore-gone. We haven't gone anywhere."
You mean OR-uh-gun? Like organ with an uh sound in the middle. Here's the general rule: When c or g meets a, o, or u, its sound is hard. When c or g meets e, i, or y, its sound is soft.
He was so close. Screwed up the Willamette pronunciation after making a big deal about how to pronounce Oregon. Otherwise, living in Oregon is pretty much as he described it.
I grew up in Cali Tillamook cheddar is the only way to go. Their smoked aged extra sharp cheddar with some real sour dough bread BBQ and some thin sliced London Broil. Best thing ever!!!!!!
As an Oregonian I love how you portrayed us as just supper bipolar, on one side we have a famous cheese factory and a very deep lake. Then on the other we have a unicycle riding, fire bagpipe darts Vader who rides around a city with more heroin addicts and people who are homeless from other states than we can count.

I was born in the northwest, moved away when I was young. Recently I drove through Portland for a vacation. It’s so fucking sad. I’ve never seen a whole ass _suburb_ made of tarps and tires
There are parts of Portland that literally look like a mad max set… I’m in shock every time I go up there. Good block, good block, ohhh shit how did we get here block.
Its the same with Washington concerning the Umbrellas. I only use an umbrella if its gonna soak through my clothes in the five minutes of my 20 minute walk to work.
i gotta be honest, i thought for sure that mentioning microbreweries, voodoo donuts, mountains, and tillamook ice cream, and hiking inside 2 minutes would summon colorado.
@@arenkasner1890 those who live in Vancouver (not BC, the original one.) don't have to cross the river to get them anymore. they opened up a location by the mall.
I live a half mile from a fault line that cuts through the Columbia Lava Group that goes over the Boring Lava Field, that is in the remains of the ancient volcanic island Siletzia (the island that formed from the original location of Yellowstone Hotspot). Here in Portland, from a good view point on a clear day, you can see 6+ volcanoes or volcanic vents.
as a washingmachine I visit Oregon once a year, every time I go I always stop at Tillamook on the way back, amazing ice cream there, it is weird how where i usually go there is no traffic though. in Washington a lot of the roads where i live are always backed up.
For future reference, Willamette is pronounced Will-am-it not Will-a-met. We actaully have a local slogan, "It's Willamette, damn it!" to help teach transplants because it rhymes, and because we react very strongly to it being mispronounced.
Oh Ben....you got the correct pronunciation of Oregon, but it's Willamette (rhymes with 'damn it')! Everything else was pretty much dead on, except everybody I know does drink Starbucks. We also aren't allowed to pump our own gas :D
You must live on the west side. In addition the the yahoos most of Eastern Oregon pumps their own now and I get messed up everytime I go out of our county area
@@Traxxya i honestly have no idea how we measure the depth of national parks or if that's even a thing it's probably just as deep as crater lake is but that's boring and definitely not bigger than other parks
Okay from someone who lives in the state of Oregon I love the character that's playing the state of Oregon you better keep this guy in the loop and I'd like to see her expressions of the other states for the United States what characters would you have how would they act so on and so forth a great video nonetheless
Finally! So many people calling it out as wrong yet they can't be bothered to include any hints as to local pronunciation, thank you for providing a clue.
I’m from Klamath falls and yeah once you’re east of the cascades it’s a different state. Moved to Eugene, old friends just hate it here crept when it comes to weed, then it’s allllll goood maaaaan.
Oregon: "Umbrellas are for Cowards and Tourists!"
Alaska: "We approve this message." :D
It’s a practical consideration in Alaska, for when there’s rain there is often wind.
Washington approves as well.
scotland. "we agree."
Arizona: what's an umbrella?
Alaska Oregon and Hawaii friendship is something I believe in 100% because all they’d do is talk stuff about tourists. (I’m not wrong)

As an Oregonian, you almost, almost made this perfectly. You just mispronounced Willamette, but everything else is *chefs kiss* perfect

Came to make sure someone had mentioned it in the comments, was not disappointed. :D
He also emphasized the oo in Tillamook, which bothered me

I visibly flinched at the pronouncing of Willamette. 🤣 It's more like Will-AM-it.
After I tried Tillamook icecream I couldn't go back.
Eheheheh right?
Well Oregon sounds like my favorite place so far, the umbrella bit spoke to my soul
“Umbrellas are for cowards and tourists”
“The mountains been out since January”
Looks like Washington and Oregon are siblings
Yup.
Umbrellas, Starbucks and Bud Light...😱😱😱The Horror!! But also had me rolling! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Florida: Beach! Oregon: Coast! Me: [laughs in shore]
Here in Portland, we count how clear the air is based on how many volcanos can be seen.
I live a half mile from a fault line that cuts through the Columbia Lava Group that goes over the Boring Lava Field, that is in the remains of the ancient volcanic island Siletzia (the island that formed from the original location of Yellowstone Hotspot). Here in Portland, from a good view point on a clear day, you can see 6+ volcanoes or volcanic vents.
Psst, there’s no “beaches” in Oregon, only coast
that's cause much of the coastline isn't beaches, it's cliff faces, with the occasional sandy gravel bits.
this eries is keeping me entertained while on the phone to my service provider. i m loving it. not sure how i have not seen this until now
washington 🤍 oregon solidarity. umbrellas are for tourists. and maybe sunny days. 🤔😉
OREGON!! 💙💚💙
That umbrella thing: true.
I was half expecting NJ to show up and enter ‘shore’ into the beach vs coast debate
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that
as a washingmachine I visit Oregon once a year, every time I go I always stop at Tillamook on the way back, amazing ice cream there, it is weird how where i usually go there is no traffic though. in Washington a lot of the roads where i live are always backed up.
For future reference, Willamette is pronounced Will-am-it not Will-a-met. We actaully have a local slogan, "It's Willamette, damn it!" to help teach transplants because it rhymes, and because we react very strongly to it being mispronounced.
This
As someone from is fucking amazing. Love the drawbridge and the south west Idaho😭😭
Stares in Stumptown coffee.
And now im feeling homesick for Oregon
Oh Ben....you got the correct pronunciation of Oregon, but it's Willamette (rhymes with 'damn it')! Everything else was pretty much dead on, except everybody I know does drink Starbucks. We also aren't allowed to pump our own gas :D
You must live on the west side. In addition the the yahoos most of Eastern Oregon pumps their own now and I get messed up everytime I go out of our county area
As a person from Maui who lives in Oregon, They call it coast because it isn't a friggen beach.
Down here in Klamath Falls Oregon, we don't associate with Portland
Neither does Grants Pass.
Neither does a considerable part of Columbia county.
Neither does most of east of the cascades.
Portland just kinda sucks.
Sincerely, The Rest of Oregon
Even Eugene and Corvallis won't if we can avoid it
Now I know where Tillamook's cheese comes from. 😆
Water creatures from Oregon… huge ass sturgeon

Thank you
Didn't even mention that Oregon has the largest national park and smallest state park. The state park is like 2 ft in diameter.
we definitely don't have the largest national park crater lake isn't that big
@@rubyh6256 but imagine if it was laying on its side eh? Then it would be the biggest
@@Traxxya i honestly have no idea how we measure the depth of national parks or if that's even a thing it's probably just as deep as crater lake is but that's boring and definitely not bigger than other parks
IT'S WILLAMETTE, DAMN IT!
also, Oregon has a west-east divide like Washington (my state)
Okay from someone who lives in the state of Oregon I love the character that's playing the state of Oregon you better keep this guy in the loop and I'd like to see her expressions of the other states for the United States what characters would you have how would they act so on and so forth a great video nonetheless
I literally screamed with excitement when they mentioned Tillamook!
It's Willamette dammit!! (FYI, Willamette rhymes with "dammit")
Finally! So many people calling it out as wrong yet they can't be bothered to include any hints as to local pronunciation, thank you for providing a clue.
Everyone from Oregon: Cringing at Willamette 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Please do a State of Jefferson explanation 🙏 I'm from Southern Oregon please
As an Oregonian, my first instinct was to correct the pronunciation of Oregon.
Loved that bit!
Then... willamette... oof, haha
"Southwest Idaho and the State of Jefferson" was awesome reference! Sad that their Covid hospitalization rate is off the charts.
I’m from Klamath falls and yeah once you’re east of the cascades it’s a different state. Moved to Eugene, old friends just hate it here crept when it comes to weed, then it’s allllll goood maaaaan.
Bloopers
I love. More please ❤
The accuracy of this caught me off-guard 🤣
(Oregon's right about Dutch Bros tho)
Except nobody calls it Dutch Bros, they actually say the brothers part.
My brand new home state finally made it to the table!
