The "nearly" is the interesting part. Is there a dispute over border lines? Is there a conflict zone in between? Why is it nearly and not exactly, i must know.
I mean technically alaska has a southern border
In that case, we'd also have to count Hawaii and Florida and such...
The word "border" in the example implies "border with another country".
While it's both (and more), I'd say it's more eastern than southern.
I assume it's the Rio grande river.... the edges aren't exactly the same.
The nearly part is just there for the joke. Most of the time people are comparing two different things which are nearly the same, so it's supposed to be funny when the two things named turn out to be the same thing.
I knooow, i was just trying to be funny and pretend like there was a deeper meaning :)
There’s water at one point where
If you ask the US or Mexico the border is where the land ends but if you ask Texas it’s wherever their floating barrier is
The Rio Grande River is the same shape. Crazy how nature do that
Rio Grande is almost the exact shape as río Bravo, makes one wonder
It’s a conspiracy.
Maybe they were connected back when the land was a part of Pangaea.
I have a conspiracy theory that they are connected, and all the mapmakers are conspiring to make maps with only the US on them. I’m even willing to go so far as to say that Alaska and Hawaii aren’t just off the coast.
Oh I could tell you why- the ocean is near the shore...

Coincidence? I don't think so
Checkmate, atheists!
