Can you name all 50 states from memory? No need to push enter with each one, if you spell it correctly it enters it automatically.
No cheating!

I did it with about 4 1/2 minutes left.

7:06. The last state I was trying to think of for probably 30 seconds was, get this, Arizona! lol.

I did it with about three minutes left. It took me four minutes to come up with the last three: predictably, a "square" state and a New England state, and unpredictably, a close neighbour.

I suck quite impressively

Trust me: Indiana is easily forgettable.

Well, this is somewhat excusable since I doubt you were drilled on the 50 states of the U.S. in primary school. Of course, I live in Arizona...but then one of the other commenters lives here and took forever to remember it. :D

6:46 was what I had left, and I had gotten hung up on the spelling of Massachusetts. I hate that state.

Also, I should tell you -- the only reason I know all 50 was because I learned a song with them in alphabetical order. Now I just have to memorize the Animaniacs' countries of the world song and I'll REALLY be impressive..

I'm a visual learner, I worked my way across the map in my head, yet still got stuck on three.

I forgot Nebraska; I got Maryland with about 10 seconds to spare.
