Brooklyn, NY....
I don't know. Oh, wait. Brighton Beach. That place is a dump and an old reminder of Soviet life. As a Russian, I feel appalled that Brighton Beach exists, let alone that it's our most ethnic neighborhood this hemisphere.
We aren't that bad of a place, though. You avoid some neighborhoods and you go places like Sheepshead Bay (the good Russian/Turk/Polish/Greek neighborhood), Bensonhurst (Italians), Bay Ridge (more Italians), etc. and you have like the most chill time ever. And we got shit nobody else on this side of the earth has.

Neither laughed nor cried. Although it reminded me of 2 things. A crappy American TV show (like one tree hill or whatever it's called... don't watch stuff like that) and why I never, EVER want to move to the states. EVER.tredecim said:
OT: Here where I live, we don't have anything really embarrassing, but we do spend a few percentages of the total excess of the total budget on art. And everyone living here thinks it's a waste of money, since the stuff they get is (most of the time) ugly, or at least not worth the money. According to the people seeing it at least... =P
We have some of the most stubborn idiotic inhabitants imaginable. We had to cancel a huge cultural festival because for some reason the park is counted as living area and some estate owners initiative found out that more than 10 days with noise about 50 decibels arent allowed in living areas and those already have been used this year. " we have the right to stop it, so we have to do it" (that there is no house in the park seems not to bother) even if it taints the citys reputations for visitors and the ones organizing interesting projects. i hope they all die in a fire.
we also have some idiotic wannabe gangsters rapping about it, like i guess every town.

My hometown is Ashland, Wisconsin. The name of all of their sports teams is the "Oredockers", which refers to an enormous dock used for loading iron ore onto freight ships. Before a larger one was built somewhere in China, this was the largest structure of its kind in the world.
This is where the embarrassing part comes in. Guess what they're doing? They're TEARING THE ************ DOWN. That's right. They're DEMOLISHING the town's one remaining claim to fame.

I come from a rural village in Nova Scotia, Canada. There are at least 4 fish processing plants and large commercial pier, and the place smells like fish 8 months of the year. Delicious.
Allright, first of all my home town doesn't exist anymore, it was annexed by Omaha Nebraska like 5 years ago. Plus since it's Nebraska, we have people literally worshiping the Nebraska Cornhuskers. I loooooove it when they lose a game, because I then feel like I'm the only happy person in the state.
