It is an interesting phenomenon imo. No sense for you to read it though. You already think you're the smartest guy in the room.

 

Is your nickname, "Wet Blanket," by chance?

Anyone been to Troy recently, BTW? Gentrification in full swing there. The hipsters are taking over the 'hood.

Hipster Troylets?

Man-buns as far as the eye can see.

 

I have a buddy who lives in Troy. Next time we get together for a beer, we'll likely do The Ruck. That ought to be full of the hipsters.

I don't live near Troy (I work in E. Greenbush), but if this place is still open, eff the Ruck; I'm telling my buddy we're going to Sutters.

My home town Auburn is a mixed bag. They've come a long way since Bass Pro came and downtown was completely revitalized. Still a heap of white trash floating around, but not nearly as bad as they depict in this piece, IMHO.

Yeah the prison does Auburn no favors. Being located very close to downtown is just downright idiotic. That said Auburn has come a long ways. Bass Pro started it but the revitalization of downtown has changed Auburn greatly. There is a fantastic arts scene now. Merry Go Round Playhouse has expanded and now has shows in several location during the summer season. There is also live music at many places most nights of the week. It has gone from a dying town to one where there is actually things to do.

 

The surrounding areas however are filled with rednecks and white trash (and I'm from one of those surrounding areas :bag: )

Huh. Alabama, Georgia, and now New York. Does not matter what state its located in. Auburn is a dump.

I agree. I left young and never wanted to go back to live there, but over the last decade or so each time back is better. I can't really move right now, but if I could I would likely move back to Auburn.

This article leads me to ask a question. Outside of upper class suburbs and hipster urban areas, where aren't loads of white trash these days?

 

They're all at the Golden Corral.
