"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984
"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir
"Good news! We have a delivery." Professor Farnsworth

To be honest, I knew I never wanted to live in NYC loooooong before I saw that show. Mostly on principle (too many people, it stinks, expensive, the usual dumb reasons). But also because I’ve spent enough time in NYC over the years.
Amazing place to visit, kinda crummy place to live.
(Also, two things. One, it took me far too long to realize what MTM meant. So read into that everything you possibly can.
And two, I agree. Probably. Because I’ve never seen MTM, keep reading into that, but TV and movie depictions are never right. Except Grumpy Old Men, Coach, and Mighty Ducks, they all but nailed it.)
For anybody else I don't recommend it. It's very cool, but it's just incredibly irritating to do anything. The population density turns average people into caged rats, it's the worst place for unrelenting, banging commercialism, and there is no peace.
But credit where it's due, it also has the largest number of incredibly smart and interesting people and mind-blowingly beautiful women on the planet. You just need millions and millions of dollars to insulate yourself from contact with the commoners, who are horrible.Cornell University

Wait. Gatsby is from some jerkwater Minnesota town, right? Or maybe Fitzgerald himself was?
Anyway, this is my full list of cultural connotations of Minnesota:
1. Guy Noir
2. Sue Ann Nivens
3. Dino Ciccarelli
4. Prince
5. Dylan
6. That band that played drunk
7. Is St. Olaf or McMaster (?) in Minnesota? If so, then them.Last edited by Kepler; 11-23-2020, 05:05 PM.Cornell University
