While it's been 43 degrees (Celsius) here in Canberra today, I understand there has been a little snow in parts of North America.

The graphic is not funny.

What is funny is that half the social media comments were about how wrong it was. Luxembourg has more people than greater London? Malta? Iceland? Really?

The coup de grâce was that the other half of the comments were that it should be fewer, not less.

The somewhat mischievously named 'Heard Island Government' Blue Sky account (named as a totally, like totally serious reference to certain economic policy decisions from nowhere near the actual, real Heard and McDonald Islands) quote posted a comment from elsewhere in the social media universe about the derivation of the word Arctic (it's a reference to bears), and by extension the naming of Antarctica. The reply that won the day?

In the comments, someone asked what the Greek would be for Penguins and No Penguins, and someone dutifully provided an answer. Because of course they did.
