My town is culturally insignificant. Old Thu Jan 29, 2009 12:01:48 AM #84580 Perm Link
As that bar to the left of my post used to say, I'm from Lyons, New York. So I was perusing the Wikipedia page while listening to the TWEWY OST, and compared my town's Wikipedia page to some others near it. Out of all that research (at least 5 minutes worth), what have I learned? Nothing has ever happened here, ever.

Then we look at one town to the East:
  • Hometown of the guy who made CatDog.
  • Hometown of a PBA champion.
  • My birthplace


Then we go to the North:
  • Attacked by the god-damn British.
  • Once contained a large number of Shakers.
  • The birthplace of Arbor Day


To the West:
  • Hit by a tornado so strong it apparently dissolved the village government. Or something.
  • Used to be controlled by the French.
  • Named after some Greek dude.


To the South:
  • Birthplace of the Mormons, thus directly responsible for at least 4 jokes for every sitcom made since the 80s.
  • "The only place in the world that has four churches on the four corners of two intersecting highways" (probably not related to the Mormon thing). Did you here that!? The world!
  • Hometown of the founder of American Express.


Somehow, being somewhat less poor than most towns in the area doesn't seem to cut it in comparison. I always wanted to live in the town to the East, but that was more because there was a Dunkin' Donuts there. The CatDog thing just makes me furious.

Michael: Jodie, how's my schedule look for today?
Jodie: You've got a conference and dinner party at the Japanese Embassy regarding wildlife protection.
Michael: Oh, yeah...sorry, but I'll have to cancel that. I'm heading out to save America!

I live in Annapolis, MD. Nothing really too special here, either. We have the Chesapeake Bay? And (had) the last living Liberty Tree. Woo.

They inforce it? How? What is inforcing? OH! Enforcing?
Remind me to at that to the top ten places that I never want to live ...
I can't believe I was actually born in such a terrible place.


And, yeah, I guess the Naval Academy's cool, when the middies aren't out getting drunk and raping people. I'm not kidding, that pops up on the news from time to time. Downtown Annapolis is a beautiful pace, and so is St. John's college.

He may have thought the same about his family that he killed. It's a vicious circle.

It's no one's jurisdiction to decide who lives and dies.

Conversation with him typically goes nowhere. It's whatever.

And, yeah, it wasn't in his jurisdiction, and it's in no one else's. Besides, life in jail sucks way worse than just putting him out of his misery like that.

That would be true if:

1) He was of that religious preference.
2) Well, if any of those places actually existed.
