A woman said she was shocked to discover that Alaska is not an island and that it's possible to drive to it during a conversation with her Canadian boyfriend. z,pz. In the video posted on October 26, TikToker Sabriena Abrre asked people not to call her a "stupid American" as she admitted her mistake. "Everybody knows that Alaska is cold," she said. "But did I know that it was connected by land? No. I did not know that."

She’s right. People shouldn’t call her a “stupid American.” Her being American has nothing to do with it. She’s just stupid.

Lol, thanks for the laugh 😂
This is funnier than when I said to a couple of 40 year olds that yes, Lincoln was the first Republican president. The “wait, what?” out of them was priceless.
