Jesus of Suburbia is at it again...
30đź‘Ť 214đź‘Ž
Living in a small town away from the city, gardening, missionary, white plates, silver car... occasional buggery.
"So where do you come from Geoff?"
"I live in a silver saloon suburbia, I’m satisfied with my life without wanting to be smug about it... although I’ve not seen my wife’s skinny bits in a few years; I just wank off over the dogs food instead"
Different types of suburbia:
Northeast Suburb: A standard suburb, filled with endless single family houses, affluent moderate liberals and their children. You can find a lot of these in New Jersey and Long Island.
Midwest Suburb: Where the Republican Party and Walmart are cornerstones of the community. You WILL get funny looks if you drive through here as a black person.
Gated Community: Paranoid and rich nutcases, mostly. Also most of the town is just golf courses.
Sun Belt Suburb: Filled with retirees who contribute absolutely nothing to the downtown economy besides their taxes.
Streetcar Suburb: Suburbs that have townhomes and the occasional apartment building. They tend to be affluent and liberal, like the Northeast Suburb but more diverse. You can actually walk to the store or catch the bus here.
Exurbs: Generally isolated culs-de-sac off a rural road/highway. God help the kids that grow up here. The home turf of McMansions.
Bob: Growing up in suburbia as an only child was hell…
David: I grew up in the suburbs and it was fine…
Bob: I didn’t mean “the northernmost parts of the Bronx” I meant Pond Heights in the middle of buttfuck Egypt.
Suburbia is not the country, the woods or small towns in the middle of nowhere. Suburbia is semi-urban areas built around a city, often suburbs have malls and chain restaurants. Sometimes a town that was not suburban for years become a suburbia in a fast growing city. (cities out west or in the South)
People who grow up in a small town don't have suburban values. Suburban values come from people who lived in a city/town that was always suburbia their entire lives, or most of their lives. A town that still has a display with time and temperature outside the bank is not suburbia, it's a small town, and wouldn't be confused with suburbia.
