This is amazing. Of course it's probably more amazing to me than to you all since I'm so familiar with this city, but it's a big site, click around see if they have something you're familiar with!
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
Lazuli: Kirby games are generally pretty easy. I've never played one myself, but I like watching playthroughs of some of them. Which one, out of curiosity?

squidmine: I think that was a snowclone-thread theme about a month or so ago.
Umm, Nightmare in Dreamland for the GBA. I think it's a remake.
But anyway, apparently if you eat three or more enemies at the same time it randomly gives you one powerup out of any powerup in the game, and I got the UFO, which I didn't know existed, but I think I'm basically Jesus now.

Hee hee, that map from 1872 has Jefferson Avenue misspelled as "Jfferson Avenue". I guess even 150 years ago mapmakers made careless mistakes.
Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
Torrents are actually quite simple to use, if you use utorrent.
Basically, somebody has a file you want, and shares it, and this is called "seeding". You, by downloading it as a torrent, am copying it from that person piece-by-piece, which is called "leeching". The more people with the complete file - "seeds" - the faster your computer can copy it. The more leeches there are, the slower it'll be.

I live in an outskirtsy suburban area. There's a lot of them around Atlanta.
Cities are an okay place to visit once in a while, and I'm fine living near one. But I don't think I'd enjoy actually living in them.

That is a disadvantage of suburbs, yes. Sprawling growth tends to make things inconvenient without a car, and then the local wildlife gets all messed up.

I live in an overpriced sprawl-y suburb. I hate it, but I don't know if I would hate the city any less.

Lazuli: Heh. We don't really see deer that much in my neighborhood, probably because there's not much around us that could really be considered a suitable forest. We do, however, get rabbits and coyotes on occasion.
Despite what it might sound like, the coyotes aren't much of a problem at all. They're not particularly aggressive, from what I've heard.

I have two main problems with the kind of suburb where I live now: (a) it's pretentious as fuck, which rubs me the wrong way and (b) it's so damn far from everything.
If I have to live in the suburbs, I'd much prefer the kind of inner suburb where you're not too far from the city and you're still within walking distance of food and basic shopping. I know such suburbs exist; when my uncle lived in Parma (a suburb of Cleveland) he had a mall with a Wal-Mart in it at the end of his street, and fast food places everywhere.
There's also an enormous population of stray cats about town. I call them the Blackfur Clan, because I was really into Warrior Cats when I found out about them and named the big black-furred one Blackfur. He is their leader in my headcanon.

^Was it? My memory only goes back a few days.

Since when do we have women?
Shut up, you. Anyways, I'd be glad to take another shot at it. It's always fun until it eventually collapses under its own weight.
Bit hesitant on the supervillain thing, but maybe.
I will think aboot it.
Also the UFO powerup totally breaks the game. God this is awesome.

Ohhh it only lasts til the end of the level.
Phooey.
I am a city person who lives in a suburb and may soon be moving to a mobile home park.
I am less than thrilled about all of this.
Cities are too busy and noisylike. ^and that

I dream of living somewhere nice and clean.
I cannot count the times I have found a deer in my backyard.
It's cute and whimsical until they start eating through your trash.
Also we get bugs in our house a lot.
I found some yellow thing swimming in the downstairs toilet yesterday. Was nasty.
I want a record store in walking distance and non-nosy neighbours.
It's true that there isn't a record store within 10 miles, though.

This is an incredibly strange pastime.
