I sit on a field on a daily basis and people still talk to me.
People think small towns are like a house over here and a house all the way over there and you don’t see anybody unless you try. They’re not. They’re like a small segment of a city. You just keep bumping into people you know instead of strangers because there’s less of you and you all go shop to the same store.
I mean, they are over here. I assume Americans probably have a different read on the matter because they’re weird and they do weird things.
Cities are cities, though. You don’t talk to anybody because you don’t know anybody. I haven’t been able to change my coffee order in my usual place here because the waiter just brings me my usual without me saying anything now. In a large city I could order a fizzy enema for breakfast and nobody would bat an eye.
It’s not that one is better than the other, but if you want anonimity and social isolation? It’s cities all the way.
