Move up to NWI, it's more like an extension of Chicago

Edit: but without all the taxes

People where I live now are genuinely afraid of the city for sure. There is some merit, but only if you go looking to step in shit.

For me, I'm largely desensitized to city stuff from a lifetime, and I'm tired. I don't like it anymore.

Do fake country guys really wear henleys? I like henleys.

Edit: I did research. Thank god he was wearing a long-sleeve tee and not a henley.

[–] Beowulf@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hate cities because of the amount of idiots driving there. If it were harder to get a driver's license then I wouldn't mind at all

[–] BigNote@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Fair play. That said, you get used to it.

I live in a small town outside pittsburgh about 45 mins. I lived in a city my entire life from 18 to 36. I bought a house here and it's quiet, but holy shit the people here are ignorant AF. When I say ignorant, I don't use that term like rude, I mean literally dumb and uneducated. NO ONE around here can even spell. Fb is hilarious with the spelling they come up with or they will use a word that sounds similar to the big word they are trying to use but not quite right. Some day, I'm going to compile a list. They hate any race that isn't white, they are misinformed, religious in thought but drinking every night, TERRIBLE parents... I yelled at my neighbor because her 3 year old son was half a mile down the road playing by himself on a 30 foot tall dirt pile and she was nowhere to be seen. When I yelled at her she said and I quote "iz he not allowed down thur or somethin?" I called the police and they came and told her she had to be outside when he was outside and she has been ever since. I'm sure she hates parenting. Trump support everywhere especially after he's now a convicted rapist. It's insane. I'm pretty outcast, i speak out when I see dumb shit, especially people selling these stickers. I call them white trash. People who know me personally respect me and I've won 1 or 2 over but man it's exhausting. Had to buy a few guns when shit was getting real scary with the rednecks wanting to overthrow the govt. I'm surrounded by rednecks with guns. I miss the city. Sure there are all types of shitty people but atleast you get culture, good food, beautiful views, activities. We drive up every so often but it's not the same. If our house wasn't so big and beautiful and old compared to what I would get in the city for 3x the cost, I would move. Fuck these hillbillies.

Rednecks were originally left wing pro-union workers originally. So these people don't deserve to be called rednecks.

Edit: had to double check. There were multiple meanings including the coal miners I am referring to. Apparently it could also mean white sun burned farmers in the 19th century

I'm starting to think there might be a reason some people assumed I was a racist redneck when I argued why I like small towns more than cities. Is that seriously what its like in some places? Here you will see the occasional truck covered in trump stickers but that's pretty much it. There's plenty of different cultures and views here. Not as much as a city of course, but that's as expected.

[–] Osirus@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's OK to like small towns, but most of the people who live in small towns, never left and have no aspirations to. It's particularly evident with some of the more uh... shallow gene pool folk. They are so backwards, they know they would get ridiculed around people outside of their comfort zone, which I'm sure they would. They hate "pretty people". City people are usually pretty people and there is like a weird level of jealousy based around that. I live in what used to be a steel town and when I tell you that everyone who lives at the bottom of the hill have mental issues and all have kids that have learning disabilities, I'm not joking. Heavy metals HAVE to be the cause of so many issues in small towns. There are kids here with growth deformities, 10 miles away there is a nuclear dump that is just chilling in the middle of a residential area. Tons of people got and get cancer there, people continue to live around it and die. I have no idea why lol. It's insane. The govt put up signs but they aren't even noticeable. If you drive past, my wife had to point it out. It's fucking NUCLEAR WASTE. Seriously.... I've been in fights with a lot of my neighbors over the way they treat their children. My neighbor across the street has 2 kids and 1 black step daughter from his wife's other marriage, I feel so bad for her. One day I was outside and a group of young boys came up the street with a football, they were about 14. The dad was outside and from across the street I could hear them saying N*gger very loudly. The redneck dad just ignored it. He probably thinks the same thing and is embarrassed by her. I was shocked he just turned away and ignored it. If I ever heard that again, I'd say something l, I should have to make him look bad bit I really didn't expect him to NOT say something. I pack heat everywhere I go out here, there was a crazy redneck yelling about Biden with a gun last summer at the ice cream stand. He got arrested but if I was there with my kids and someone pulled a gun, I'd have to pop them. Never had that happen in the city. Shits real in the battlefield.

I've lived in a range of population centers, from mid sized towns of about 30k, to cities in the millions, and now in a small town of 5k spread through the entire valley. Its different strokes for different folks. The city was nice with lots of things to keep me occupied, but I could barley afford to do anything because my tiny apt cost 2.5k a month. Cities would be great if the CoL was addressed. Smaller towns on the other hand offer me plent of unspoiled nature to explore and a tighter knit sense of community while allowing me to live comfortably.

Each has its benefits and generalizing one side or the other doesn't do it justice.
