Do general punjabis generalize all of up as 'Bihar like'?

the region of uttar pradesh actually similar to bihar linguistically and culturally is only the far eastern districts, ironically western uttar pradesh get generalized sometimes under the same window despite their similarities with biharis are almost non existent, awadh is a region that never consider itself similar to bihar, the cultural practises and traditions of bihar are not followed here, and i dont even suspect you guys know about bagheli and bundeli (they share their culture with mp not bihar) what could be the reason of that direct comparison with bihar despite the fact that most of up is not even bihar like?

Top 10 states most similar to Uttar Pradesh (my observation)

as per my observation (i am from up and been to other states a lot)-

  1. Madhya pradesh (strikingly similar to south and central up)

  2. bihar (western bihar is very similar to east up although maithali isnt that big language in up)

  3. Haryana (khadi boli and haryanvi would sound same to a someone who deosnt speak that language, language and landscape based similarities b/w west up and haryana are very noticeable)

  4. Rajasthan (borderline districts b/w up and rajasthan hold cultural similarities, but similarities reduce as further west you go)

  5. Uttarakhand (same logic as rajasthan but difference increases even sharply as you go north)

  6. jharkhand. (may have ranked above uttarakhand but tribal populations and forest cover is much higher and barely shares a border)

  7. Delhi (ncr region and linguistic factors)

7.Punjab ( in a wider linguistic factor, there are similarities in language and landscape)

  1. Chattisgarh (may have ranked above punjab but landscape is quite different and way higher tribal population)

  2. Himachal (shares border in one district probably linguistic similarities in some of it's southern districts)

  3. Orrisa (barely any similarities but rest are even different)

I encountered the mailman (one of the most rarest npc's in grand theft auto IV)

I think i ran over the one of the most rarest npc in gta 4, mailman. he is so rare to encounter that most people don't ever see him in their playthroughs, i was just recklessly driving and this guy was on the specific mailbox i had already decided to run over (he become one of the casualties)
