I grew up in a corn field in Indiana, it was kind of redneck just a bunch of farmers in jacked up pick up trucks with guns.. ha ha. And my dad was the veterinarian who worked on everybody's horses, cows, and pigs so I knew everyone. Or at least they knew me, I was the little kid that always rode around with him and held the pigs while he castrated them.

But when people think of the north they think of New York or Chicago or Detroit. These big giant concrete jungles that are nothing like the midwest cornfields and farms. Yeah I am the poster child for middle America. If you look "deplorables" up in the dictionary my picture is there.

You couldn't pay me enough to spend any amount of time in the south of England, it's way too busy and too many buildings.

But I'd spend an endless amount of time in the southern states of USA.

I have visited a few places in North America, hated new York for how big and busy it is, but apart from Florida I haven't been to the south.

Couldnt agree more, southerners are awful. London is just hell. I much prefer the quiet contryside. Your little corner looks amazing and my cousin is looking to move that way soon. Cant blame her, i just wish it was a bit warmer and less wet. Same for my side tbh

Rich and stupid.

Intelligence never got me anywhere

That's because colonialism has pushed it onto other civilisations and it's awful that happened since so many people lost their native religion and traditions, but that shouldn't mean that the English or Europeans shouldn't celebrated their own culture (but it should never be at the expense of others). It sort of defeats the purpose of promoting diversity. I can never be a part of any other culture because it wasn't anything I learnt or embraced, so to deny my celebration of my own culture, what a glum life that is, ey?

Yep, we certainly are punished for colonialism.

Is being too nice a bad thing?

Yes you can be too nice. It makes people take advantage and ungrateful. theres being nice, then theres being a doormat.

Given I'm not celebrating Christmas this year.

I want to be eating pizza and drinking vodka, but apparently im not allowed and must conform to the traditional dinner of dry turkey and over cooked carrots.
