Don't live in a city. The most interesting feature about our town is that for about two months, there were no fewer than three street lamps with faulty bulbs outside the leisure centre. But then the bulbs got replaced, and we kind of lost a major talking point.

We're the glass capital of Indiana.

At one time we had over a dozen glass factories , now there's just one left.

And that's about it.

My current town and the one I spent my teen years were gas boom towns , where almost every building in the downtown area was built in the 1890s .

And over the past 35 years about a third of them have been demolished and nothing put in its place ; with another third empty or in need of demolition.

I'm in Las Vegas. The fact that I can say that and you immediately picture the place and know at least some of what it has to offer is enough indication of what makes it interesting.

My hometown is notable for being one of the largest safest cities in the U.S., one of the biggest cities in California despite not having worldwide recognition like SF or LA, and attracting a bunch of techies who are gentrifying the city and destroying the local culture! Soon to be home to a massive Google center.

Markiplier grew up not far from me, his dialect is very much the same. He has a lot of the weird common mannerisms I only heard from him and people irl. "Fuck a duck", "ruum", "pellow"

Aviation was invented not that far away from me as well.

I have the best zoo in America in walking distance.

It is home of the Crimson Chin.

I'm pretty sure Zareth, Final Fantasy2389, and at least one other PotDer are all in Vegas as well. I am almost positive I have seen Zareth in person, but when I tried chasing him down and saying "hey it's TDC your PotD buddy/rival! I'm here to collect your fingers!" he just ran away like a coward.

I always wanted to meet up with a PotDer, or maybe even hook up. I don't really know Yellow all that well though, or their attitude towards me. I think there is one other PotDer here as well.

I ran into a PotDer at Fanime one year and it was hella awkward because I wasn't active at the time and had no idea who they were, but they recognized me from pictures I had posted I guess. I can't remember who they said were and if it's a currently active user or not. I had actually blocked this memory out until just now apparently lol

Oh, that's something else. Not too long ago I learned that Boogie, that obese youtuber, grew up in a town not far from me. Obviously that's not my town, but I was impressed that someone from the area became internet famous.

My otherwise unremarkable town used to be the biggest city in the world. Not populationwise but rather in size.

But then it got stripped off of its city status for some reason.

The old administration building of what was a form of juvenile hall. I hope they fix it up, would bring money (and unfortunately tourists) to our little town. Oh, we also have a prison just outside the town.
