Why do you think the opioid epidemic hit small town USA so hard?
Small town USA fuckin sucks.
This gave me big flashbacks of where I grew up. It was great as a kid, a ton of urban exploration opportunities, but I wouldn't want to live there now.
The pile of gravel got me
I occasionally take the bus from NYC to a town in the Finger Lakes, and this is so true. I have been through so many towns that check off every one of these boxes.
Used to have a really nice commuter rail that connected to the city, now there's a six-lane highway that clogs up twice a day.
There do be the random pile of gravel.
Old unused train tracks are one of my favourite things on vacation. It really is a journey into the past. So peaceful.
Don't forget the Pepsi machine doesn't actually work half the time if ever.
I grew up in small town. Very. Like, a few hundred people. One school. This meme is so accurate but railway picture is wrong! Too clean. XD
