Ode to the City Slicker

15. May 2004 | Category Observations

Dear city dweller:

It’s so very unfortunate that your view of the world is so very small, and so very, very ignorant.

-There are places in this world that you can’t get to by tar roads.
-A population of 2000 people in one community is not a village or a hamlet, it is a town, not a big town, but a town none the less.
-A farm is not a zoo if it contains cows, sheep and chickens. A zoo contains zebras, lions, and other foreign critters.
-Just because a town lacks a stop light, does not mean it’s residents are inbreds or rednecks. That’s what West Virginia is for.
-Going shopping may involve travel time than getting in your car and driving a few blocks.
-Green grass may actually grow in ‘downtown’
-Having a cookie cutter house that is exactly the same as your neighbor on every side, except for color, is pathetic.
-A tractor,heaven forbid, may actually cause a traffic jam.
-Minnesota is bigger than the Twin Cities Metro. 
-And no, it isn’t just a lake home ‘up north’

Many people live their whole lives without once feeling unfortunate for having to deal with headaches that come with living a city life.
