City-Country or Small Town?

[Sir_Tokie]

Witch would you rather live in and why? Me I grew up in a small town with a population of around 3000, then went and worked in the city for about 11 yrs. Now live in a city with around 1.5 million. pop. So I think I am ready to move to the country. With NO neighbors. That way I can swing from my grape vine naked if I want too...LOL...take care..

Country....
in the country now,
raised in metropolis,
perfer country living.
Green Acres is the life for me!

Raised in the country, tried the outskirts of the city. Back now in the country.
Closest neighbor about 300 yards away. Only 7 homes within 2 miles.
Nothing better.
Might take me 3 hours a week to cut grass. But that sure gets me out of household chores.

i grew up on various military bases. currently in a city with 400k people. definitely going to the country when I finish school

Country. Cities are a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there. I like the sound of birds and crickets not subwoofers and crackheads fighting.



Though the last one is funny to watch.

Another advantage of living in the country with no neighbors is you can pee in the front yard just like your dogs do.

I so love it in the country. I need magnifying glasses to see my neighbors, although I can smell the horse and cow poo on a windy day:holysheep:

I've gotten use to everyones car, truck and tractor. If something different appears......... It just shouldn't be there and it gets taken care of pretty quick.

I hope to retire in a cottage in the country.. but all my friends are in the city, as well as most of my education/career opportunities.

I live in a major city but have a vacation house I go to pretty much every weekend, if it were'nt for my business I'd live there full time. There is less than 400 people in the whole county( untill summer then the fishermen flock like crazy). I love going out in the yard and seeing bears, moose, deer, and the occasional wolve. For me watching eagles snatch fish right out of the lake is better than any entertainment venue the city can provide.

Cities RULE!!!! Where else can you go and do so much stuff? Small towns and the country are like living on an island. It's fine and dandy at first but after a week you have seen and done it all. BOOOORING! And all the great food? Oh, please... Where you gonna find that in the country?

Take it from me, a small town, small time hick. The city is the place, baby! So please don't move here. Move to the city! It's great. The country is dirty and full of degenerates. The city is clean and has money and rich people. Country folk are mean, grumpy and clanish because they are all related and get drunk with sheep in nasty smelling barns and '72 pick-up trucks. City folk are stylish, modern and go to night clubs that smell good and drink booze that comes from real bottles out of clean glasses and everybody is RICH!. Country folk hate everybody different and will shoot at you with antiquated shotguns if your hair is clean. Cities are multicultural and openly embrace different people and shootings with antiquated shotguns are largely frowned upon. And everybody is RICH!

Is there any real question here? So, move to the city. It's just AWESOME there. Seriously now, have you ever heard mention of great sushi in the country side? No, but lets not talk about that. The city is obviously the place to be!

COUNTRY RULES:The only way to get me out of country is to pry my shotgun out of my dead hand. To many rules in the city. I can cook the best of food. All fancy cooking is is a bunch of different spices. Country folk are mean, grumpy and clanish because city slicker come around a try to tell us how to live. We know how to live and know our world better than any book learned cityslicker ever will. If it was not for us country folk you cityslickers would die. You can't grow food on blacktop.
The only time we bring out the antiquated(?) shotgun is because we are out of ammo for the new guns and every deer season means a new deer rifle. As for my old truck(69) I can fix any thing that goes wrong with it. Can you say the same about your 2000+computer controled car.
Rules of the country
1 Say "Hi" to people
2 Help your neighbor when they are in need
3 Stay out of other peoples bussiness

thats right.

i like my dirt rocks and trees just fine. and i grew up VERY close to washington d.c. and i'll be the first to say the city's a nice enough place to visit but the people are pretty rude as a general rule.
i'm not paying a mechanic to fix anything on any of my vehicles.

As far as all these people who live in the city and are "RICH"
the majority of them have vacation or retirement houses, and where are they? In the country. With good reason, people who are lifetime city dwellers are predominantly leaches. They believe the tax payers owe them. All the infrastructure in the cities is payed for by all tax payers, but the majority of tax payers live in the suburbs or country. The majority of blood sucking, lowlife, welfare recipients live in the city. They contribute little but rake in much. The country is a good place to live because you know who dose'nt belong.

 

[SmokinMom]

Suburbs baby!!!

I have a 5 minute drive to the grocery store.....10 minutes to the shopping mall. Everything is a short drive away. Wouldn't trade it. Nope!! City gal thru and thru.

C'mon now! You're making the city sound terrible!!! We've all felt the pinch of countless city folk looking for a way out, moving in on our little slice of peace and quite. I was raised country and it ain't the same no more. That's because we can't help ourselves. We are real good at keeping our gardens a secret, but we blab and blab about how great the slow life is. It's our fault. We done it to ourselves. So, here's three cheers to life in the fast lane! City life is grand! It's where everybody wants to be. If you are thinking of moving to the country, DON'T!! There are diseases here, uncurable ones too. And the milk is tainted with mind control chemicals. Ever see a two headed goat?? For reals, look it up on yer innernet! That's right! There's some real scary crap out here in the sticks. We have GIANT spiders and deadly snakes too. And bigfoot's an ahole for sure. Always lurking around the back yard looking for your pets, dumping garbage cans and making long distance calls.

I think it's time to let city folk know how good they have it. Sending out trucks with sweepers and vacuums on them to clean away the riff raff and make sure the streets are shiny like gold. Airplanes and other flying machines to take you to work. Your bums aren't city bums, they're country folk on vacation! And if you wanna be RICH then the city is the place!!! Y'all got it great.. Why do you wanna move to my poor a$$ neighborhood?????:doh:

 

[SPEARCHUCKER]

What are you talking bout nv? City so great, its Friday night. Why you at home if there is soooo much to do?
Im home cause Im old, your home cause the city sucks and scared of gettin shot or mugged at night.

I wanna drive around, piss drunk, shootin signs out the window. I can do it here with no hassle. You can do anything in the country, you can do in the city. Only better with less chance of being caught.
Jump on the seadoo or 4 wheeler right now, go out and tear stuff up. Or hit a party, or bars, or anything. Im just hindered at the moment waitin for my viagra to kick in right now.
I actually pity you being stuck in the city (I sense the jealousy in your post). Your next 20 dollar, 1 tooth city prostitute is on me bud. No worries.

 

[nvthis]

Hey Spear, I'm at home on a Friday night because my small town rolls up the sidewalks at sundown... Enjoying my sarcasm, don't bring it down bro, it's all a poor country boy has on a Friday night

 

[SPEARCHUCKER]

Well let me go wear this viagra off for 5 mins or so. Come on over, got the new shotgun, case of Old Milwaukee, and a 1/5th of Old Crow. We can drive around and shoot stuff gettin wasted. They put new lights on the bridge, someones gotta take them out.

 

[nvthis]

Your next 20 dollar, 1 tooth city prostitute is on me bud. No worries.

Toothless prostitutes are only twenty bucks???? Wow!! Around here they will cost you a whole pig!

See? Another reason the city RULES!!:hubba:
