They're not asked about states, but close analogue, how many stars on the flag?

Edit:  Flag question starts around 15 seconds and is mentioned a couple times later in the video as well.

He says "oooh!" right afterwards. To me that always came across that he knew there was only 50 States and that he was wrong and saying the exasperation to signify that.

The character of Violent J is kind of sort of breaking the fourth wall. Like "hahaha, I fudged the line, guys". At least that's how I always heard it. A much clearer example happens during I Want My Shit. They've used that type of joke a few times over now. 

Also, you talkin about the dude that once claimed that a toxic waste barrel that he had an ongoing relationship with gave him "skiffulufigus". You think he thinks that's a real disease or that a toxic waste barrel can trick someone into thinking that it's a lady of the evening? 

More to your point, other than in that song I've never heard of people thinking that there are 52 states. Statistically there has to be people that think that in the U.S. but we also had a president that thought the earth was hollow. That doesn't mean there's an alternate reality wherein the earth is hollow and John Adams somehow came thru a wormhole into this reality. It just means that we live on a blue rock littered with idiots.
