You have autonomous states, [edited out: A mild oath of exasperation, annoyance, frustration, anger, or surprise]. And Puerto Rico and the Northern Mariana Islands.

FWIW, I'm the parent he was replying to and I was fine with and appreciative of his correction. It seemed the appropriate amount of antagonism, given my error.
