I still hate yuppie tourists and people who take pictures of cows when they come "upstate." I hate every single person who belongs to a Sullivan County or a Hudson Valley group on Flickr who lives in New York City, Long Island and Westchester county and posts their fantastic finds and accounts of their upstate weekend. Yeah, how was roughin' it up in the country? Some some wildlife, livestock and quaint villages? That's swell.
I love when they go back, take a nice look at their pictures, and label everything to let their less privileged friends what and where everything is, so that they too can get a glimpse at how lovely and rustic all of this is.
You'd love a nice rural life in the woods, wouldn't you? A nice summer place, somewhere to spend weekends, a good place to raise the kids! Life is real great for us in our charming little towns with our adorable shops!

I think I've heard this exact rant from Ms.Nonomura.
ReplyDeleteThat is incredibly fascinating. I haven't.
