[UA] 10 Most American Things

[Alec Fleschner]

I'm going to riff on this a bit as well. One of the most annoying  
mentalities I've run up against in the Midwest is that there are two  
kinds of places to live: "the city," which is usually defined as any  
big metropolitan area, and "the country," which is pretty much  
anywhere that's not. If you ask the residents of Wisconsin to name  
the big cities in their state, they'll say Madison and Milwaukee.  
That's it. Even though many of their cities are 50K+, those people  
just live in really big towns. "Cities" are places where all those  
bastard poor people/politicians/stupid people live.
