One of the southern most outer Hebrides island called Barra, actually does have a pub called Castlebay Bar, which is connected to the hotel there but you don't need to be staying there to come in. My father and I did a heritage trip there in 2017 so I'm sure it aligns with the time of the post too.
There is also a pub on the isle of Coll, though again connected to the hotel, same with Tiree beside it.
Isn’t Barra the place where that kid said he has a past life?
According to that map, the whiskey islands of Islay and Jura have no pubs
Mr McNeil?
@@joshuawan7004 My Grandmother was, yeah
You are really underestimating the amount of pubs there are in the country. My small town has four...FOUR in less than 100 meters, next town over has 3 off the top of my head with a could others in tiny villages. For reference neither town exceeds 3000 people
the "Mandela effect" is just people forgetting things or being stupid and not wanting to admit it
I know I'm a couple of months late but the Brexit/BSE map doesn't use parliamentary constituencies, the map and Brexit vote used the boroughs/districts/unitary authorities in England, council areas in Scotland, and council areas in Wales. Yes, some have changed, but the majority date from 1974. The map is still terrible though.
I know for a fact you can own a kangaroo in Oklahoma
these stupid maps are always the most interesting and fun to look at for some reason
It helps us look at something we see and are familiar with daily in a interesting new light
I love that correlation website. You joking about reasons for the correlations is also a good example of how people can be convinced that there is a causation too. If you just talk about vague connections in a serious manner, a lot of people will just believe it even if the original premise is ridiculous.
the "world according to a fish" map makes me angry every time because not only is it wrong, but it is unbelievably wrong. it extends over all of australia and africa, far into the coast of everywhere, doesn't include lakes(big lakes)
Oh no now I want to see a correct one
You fish are never satisfied...
That UK map also is... THE EXACLTY SAME MAP, COMPLETLY IDENTICAL DOWN TO A SINGLE DETAIL JUST WITH COLOR ALTERED
You don't say.
well yeah, it is the same map in a black and white filter, literally, bruh
The person who made the map was calling the people who voted for leaving the EU mad cows if you didnt understand
pub map 0/10 needs more pubs
CRTs do not have infite refresh rate, they run at the frequency of the power grid (50Hz in Europe, less than this video's fps). The reason CRTs are popular with retro gamers is that older consoles (up to PS2 era) had analogue outputs (Scart etc.) and newer TVs have to translate the analogue signal to digital to display, introducing a considerable amount of latency between console output and displayed picture and making the controls feel very sluggish.
Another reason is that some old sprite based games made us of the CRT technology's specific behaviours. Those design tricks get lost on a modern display and can make the sprites and animation look at as intended.
critical race theory doesn’t have infinite refresh rate 😔
My CRT is 117hz on my iMac G3
@@Austin_Boath Yeah my bad. When I think of retro gaming, I default to console gaming, so I should correct myself to "CRT televisions, like the one shown in the video, run at the power grid frequency".
I've heard of competitive PC gamers liking CRT monitors for their very low latencies. But nevertheless, as far as refresh rates, the highest refresh rate CRT monitors run into smear issues long before they can reach the 244Hz modern displays can achieve these days.
Old TV's (and clocks) had refresh rate tied to grid most likely to save on tubes that would be needed for oscillator, or they would have to use some crazy stuff like ECHxx, EBLxx which is basically tube that performs some important function (EBL is output pentode for audio, but has diode for signal demodulation) and then there is another piggybacking on it's cathode. As well there was chance that circuits in TV station and TV receiver would be on the same grid, thus synchronized. But that never was a thing when TV first appeared. But this seems to be only short lived as synchronizing signals were added to TV signal, they basically told the TV that another frame is being send and the electron ray was reset to starting point.
and also light guns
9:45 In case you are curious the Wayback Machine has it captured as early as 2007 and I just glimpsed the homepage but it basically looked the same as it does now.
holy crap toycat gets dark at the 12 minute mark
Holy crap he ranted so long about the mad cow disease. Definitely voted brexit.
The pub may be old but the google maps tag may be new..
Hence Isle of Skye with no pubs.
My old neighbor was a retired pilot. She smuggled a joey out of Australia and has a bunch of old photos playing with it UwU
P-playing with it?
owo

I think the classic correlation is the link between ice cream sales and drownings. Ice cream sales go up as temperatures rise. As temperatures rise, people jump into rivers and lakes to cool off.
Also known as Toycat fighting the urge to look at pub websites all day for 15 minutes straight
Great stuff. Only downside is that the video should have been longer, commenting on MORE stupid maps.
Hungary was entirely within Potato Europe but it's absolutely straddling that line
What if those "missing" pubs have been._closed_ recently rather than open?
Thousands of pubs closed in the UK since 2010. At least 10 in my town alone.A small town of about 30,000.
10 pubs in a town of 30,000 people??? Holy..
@@JimJimWACA 10 pubs *closed.* About 20 still left. The closed ones were demolished for housing or turned into mini supermarkets, pharmacies and, in two cases, posh wine bars (which I cannot in any honesty count as "pubs").
But, to be fair, I included pubs in villages directly attached to the town in the count.
1 pub per 1000 people? that's so low!
"Pubs in the UK look like houses"
TIL the UK is prohibition era America.
The map regarding the Pubs does not show the actual pubs, but only the pubs that are registered on the map service. So you can always add a pub there or unregister one. The map has nothing to do with the actual age of the pub, only with the time the pub was marked or unmarked...
This is genuinely the funniest video you’ve done yet. I died at Nicolas Cage films 😂
You’re forgetting it’s Scotland, there’s a high chance they all opened post-2017.
3:10 you go through all this effort to disprove the map, but all you have to point out is that the mad cow map is literally just the brexit map but grayscaled.
When you showed the "pretty nature" on bar harbor island it showed a hiking trail that I have actually been on. My family has a place in bar harbor so when I am there I hike quite a bit.
That map was originaly joke. People have to stop taking things from interne seriously.
Won't work till people stop being idiots online
I live in rural Maine. We have moose. And depression.
We do have a lot of bars and stuff...we just don't call them "pubs" unless they're going for an Elizabethan or Victorian England aesthetic (or Irish). Some local breweries have an attached restaurant they call the "brew pub" (Gritty McDuff's, Federal Jack's [Shipyard], Sebago), but yeah, pubs are just a type of restaurant/bar here rather than the generic/standard.
To the person who is actually going to that pub and waiting for him, I salute your dedication.
You can't really trust to find pubs in Google Maps. I tried this and my nearest pub wasn't listed, but many places that weren't pubs, like service stations, were listed.
The World Most Terrible Maps? More like "I spent 3 minutes and a half explaining why the 2016 EU Referendum Results and the Mad Cow Disease Outbreakios is not a real thing for people with two braincells"
And "I spent the other half of the video explaining that there's more pubs in the UK than this map meme says lol"
You should have found an actual map for mad cow disease and corrected the meme :-p
I would be genuinely interested in seeing that correlation.
@@olmostgudinaf8100 Here's a couple of decent maps… it looks more similar than I expected (I guess that's the urban-vs-rural divide), but not as close as the fake one.
Amused, after watching the video, to see that all the BSE distribution maps I can find are in black and white; probably because they're extracts from papers in academic journals, which mostly didn't allow colour when I was at university.
You were right at first about the CRTs before you corrected yourself, they don't have latency because they don't need to run the image data through computer chips like LCDs do. Also why the fancier the effects you can get on an LCD screen, the higher response rate is.
Though that's not as much the reason why retro gamers want them, unless they're speedrunners. Usually it's for a more accurate retro experience. Especially for CGA graphics, those teal and magenta DOS graphics you might have seen screenshots of and thought "wow, that's ugly". But if you hook it up to a CRT monitor with a composite cable, the graphics look much better overall, and more colours "appear" due to some technical trickery of how they layered colours because using analog signals screws up colour blending in a way that is consistent and was used by many games of the time. Meanwhile if you use a more "accurate" signal that doesn't lose data, you just get the ugly teal and magenta graphics because it's not screwing up anymore.
Also the pixels aren't quite as chunky feeling. And then there's also the aspect ratio and scaling, like how watching a 144p video on a 1080p screen looks really awful, but watching it on a 144p screen looks great.
1.24 wHAT MAP OF eUROPE IS THAT??? I will report you for spreading hate and misinformation
Well i mean they are supposed to be terrible so yeah inaccurate
That pub map shows a route: this map is the result of a network analyzation project to calculate the shortest route between ... i guess 27k or so pubs. I refer to an article in the Guardian for this map when teaching about network analytics.

Some dude on Twitter posted a population map of Oregon and implied that it's somehow gotta do with politics.
T.C., are you telling me that not everything found on the internet is not real? Mind blown ...... Oh, CHEERS!
The strongest correlation is not subscribing to ibx2cat and house fires
Let’s go back to pub websites

Of course space exploration correlates to death by lack of oxygen. There is less oxygen the higher you go in the atmosphere.
I love how the video is called "the world's most terrible maps" and when you click on it you see the United States from the first second
it is part of the world though
"Spurious" is pronounced to rhyme with "curious", not "spurrious"
Dude I actually love your videos so much. You're great at this dude.
What a shocker this one! A joke map posted in a joke maps group isn't actually factual!
Full props to educating people on correlation does not equal causation though!
Got this in my recommend after I watched GeoWizard play a Wetherspoons map on GeoGuessr. I am not disappointed
Real butter strengthens marriages.
For people that weren't alive in 1992 we couldn't see any color until 1999. The movie Pleasantville was based on the Great Color Awakening.
Lol your thumbnail has been my phone wallpaper for several years. This was weird seeing it on youtube instead of my phone background haha
3:13 Yeah, THAT'S what doesn't make sense about that map 😂
The Brexit/ BSE map is also stupid because BSE in humans is an actual thing. Its very rare, but people have got it from eating contaminated beef, and it leads to a slow, horrible death rather than just making you a racist.
Wait...We had colored maps in 1992, I thought those weren't invented until 2000.
Y is toycat a furry
Wow.
Uk: gets mad when uk is misrepresented on map
American: proudly talks about a shooting they heard
I live in wales in a village with 200 people and we have 3 pubs and 1 inn
A lot of towns I've visited in England had a pub every km or so at the most, in the old suburbs. Every 100m in the town centres. Basically staggering distance defines the catchment area.
That used to be the case. Between 2010 and 2015, pubs were closing at an alarming rate, mostly turning into Tesco convenience stores.
ok this is driving me crazy and I need to know. What does he say here...."the ________ series where we talk about geography"
5:53 To me they look like Norway rotated 180°, and partially flooded, but snaller of course.
Wash your hair.
Why didn't he talk about housefires and subscribing to Ibxtoycat? Is that not a spurious correlation?
Boycott the like button until the dislike button counter is reinstated. Dislikes for everyone! 😜
If by learn something new everyday you meant that Brits like to drink then no. Believe it or not I already knew that.

You spend nearly 3 minutes "fact checking" a joke
As a Wisconsinite can confirm due to the ease of legal ownership we all have kangaroos
can't belive that they think they can be our servants I'm so glad you guys are my friends tohugh
You have Facebook with old GUI, how is that possible in 2021? I want it too. :-D
Snopes says false, ooh ... could be true
Scotland had lower rates of BSE than England , but was regrettably not a BSE free area.
Well, if the map is false, that makes it pretty terrible, doesn't it

I don't see a duck, Am I crazy? And how do you see a duck?

That month day year at map was also in true Canada uses month day year.
I have a feeling he only made this video to talk about the British Isles' pubs
followed Terrible Maps. thanks!
It's so difficult to believe that it's not butter that the marriage dies
The Isle Inn website must be new, it isn't in black and white.
alot of funny and crazy stuff happens in maine according to stepthen king, haha :)
Losts of villages in wales have little local pubs.
Do you watch a certain Canadian youtuber by any chance?
I live in Maine, let's just say the internet is a great thing
Well, incorrect maps are terrible maps.
A non-spurious correlation between computer science doctorates and arcade revenues actually makes sense!
Does "Gay friendly" in the Outer Hebrides mean they don't put you in the Wicker Man any more?
Someone got addicted to pub websites.
Im at the stress free moose. where are you guys??
i kinda hate how much he argues and pauses in uk maps
What's the coalition website?
7:22 Gotta love that green screen gore
STEPHEN KING is in Maine!
Wait is a pub a hotel? I thought it just meant like a bar with food.
Hotels can have pubs, and pubs don't always have food.
Well wrong maps are terrible maps…
I mean they are terrible maps…
Bro needs a fresh trim asap
Toy cat be drinking at the pub, drinking *glowberry juice* and then a chippy person comes into restaurant and says, “What ya doing! Not at superior ‘Best Kebab’!
im moving from Wisconsin to a non legal kangaroo State (does border another though) i will keep you all updated with future life purchases
This is by far the worst video yet
and I love it
Only downhill in quality from here! :)
Red lion and The Red lion seems shady 🤔
A red lion was the coat of arms of John O Gaunt (Duke of Lancaster, I think), who bought pubs all over the country so he'd always have somewhere to stay when he was travelling on business. The UK's first pub chain. As there were so many of them, it became a kind of default name for someone who wants to give the impression of a traditional pub.
(edit: I read this on a brass plaque in a pub which claims to be the original Red Lion; but it seems it probably isn't true)
