That's because we're not stuck up and caught on ourselves.

90% of people who say they need to live in a big city - it's all in their imaginations. How many people in LA or NY go to the hottest nite spots? Like 2%. How many people in NYC go to Broadway plays regularly? 2%. How many go to the museums? 2%. The majority go to some average neighborhood or suburban bar/club once or twice a week, they go to the movies, they shop - cities of 100,000 people have a mall and a shopping district, at least 10 fine dining restaurants, all the chains, movie theaters

Exactly, I've lived in big cities, I've been to big cities, there is NOTHING there, that I can't get here in bumfuck Iowa. Well except one thing, HIGH PRICES ON EVERYTHING.
