You have no God-given obligation to live in bumfuck nowhere. Don’t be surprised if you’re inconvenienced by your choice of location.

The people that live in buttfuck Egypt are the ones who make city life possible.

You think they make your veggies within the city limits?

I'm not complaining bout living out here. I'm complaining that most of them can't seem to fathom that the entire world cannot live in New York City working an office job right off a subway renting an apartment, and owning zero personal modes of transportation.
