Here are the questions that each state in the country is Googling

In the age of Google, answers to your most pressing questions are just a few taps away. Arguing over what year King Louis XVI was beheaded? Wondering which restaurants in your area deliver at 3am? Curious about what happens when you drink shoe polish? Google can give you an answer to all of these queries.

But what exactly people are asking the search engine differs across the country. Real estate website Estately looked into questions asked on Google in every state that were searched more frequently than the other 49 plus D.C. The results are, well, amazing.

"Why are my nipples so sore" is one of the most common questions Googled in Georgia. Californians seem to be confused about Bernie Sanders' diet, regularly asking if the presidential candidate is a vegan. And folks in Kansas seem to be quite interested in becoming entrepreneurs, as "How to make meth?" is one of the most common questions Googled there.

The study reveals a lot about how people in different parts of the country interact with the internet. People ask a lot of questions that Google can't answer, one great example being Pennsylvanians having a tendency to Google "Am I gay?" Other states ask questions that answer themselves—West Virginians are really curious about the date that Cinco de Mayo falls on. Florida, however, takes the cake in terms of stupid questions, asking "Why does everyone hate Florida?"

Where to begin, Florida? Oh, where to begin.
