What is There to do Where You Live? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Where I live is a little and i mean very little town of about 3500. All we have is a K-Mart and about 30 restrurants all you can do where I live is cruise around McDonalds about 500 times, hang out in Farmers parking lot, and hang out in any parking lot in the town.

LaverneShirley · 08-17-2001, 10:35 PM

We got nothing, and we got nothing. Take your pick. Actually, we have a couple good malls... And I live about 40 minutes away from Kings Island so most people around here get season passes. So there's something to do in the summer, but in winter there's nothing.

Well, I live in the Bay Area, so as long as you have your driver's license, you can pretty much do anything. Two theme parks, three malls in my town's general vicinity. The nearest beach to go surfing is a 45 minute drive. And if you want to go snowboarding, it's a four hour drive up to Tahoe. And you could go spend a day in the city as well...
But actually in my town itself, there is absolutely nothing to do. Speedboat racing, the Peddeler's Fair, and the Seafood festival, that's it. And that's only in the summer...

JoPol_wannabe · 08-18-2001, 12:14 AM

There is nothing to do in our town but cruise main street or go ut to Farmers Valley (Cemetary) and that's about it we do have a sweet treat resturant. Ok we do have a park that people go down and play basketball and tennis at but that's basically it. So I guess you can say I live in a hole in the earth.

folfan01 · 08-18-2001, 12:18 AM

Well...we have a ramada inn...and a golf course...the biggest buiding is Wal*Mart

...and a TV station (just for advertising for the county though

)...we got a public pool...and the best thing we have is the arcade in the All star theatre. WHY CAN'T I LIVE IN NEW YORK CITY WHERE I BELONG?!

Anyway the mayor is doing TERRIBLE. He took down a thousand Stop signs and there's been at least 10 car crashes through the past months.

OMG, I want to live in New york more than anything!!!! But I'm gonna move there after I graduate from college hehe.

Oh gosh. There is too much to do in L.A. No matter where you go in LA there is ALWAYS something to do, even if you go to the suburbs. Were I live it is like a city within a city so we have double the fun. The beach is like a 10-15 minute drive give or take a few minutes, Magic Mountain, Raging Waters, knotts Berry Farm and the rest of the theme parks and water parks are all between 30-1 1/2 drive. We have board walks all down the various beaches, we have a prominade, and a theater on every other block.We have Hollywood and Beverly Hills. We have little lakes in what little forest we have and we have rivers and creeks in the mountains and and the deserts(whickh is everywhere). If you want snow you can have it in an hours or so drive.If you want to skii or snowboard you can drive up to Big Bear or any other shii resorts in an hour to an hour and a halfs drive. So basicly we have everything one could imagin that you can get to in less than 2 hours.

Jinny Girl · 08-18-2001, 02:57 PM

well this state is soo small you can drive from one end to the other in a matter of like... 2 hours... or 3, but theres still not much, theres the Jersey Shore, and NYC (which I don;t visit very often) Instead I just go out onto th deck at night in the winter and look through the woods and see NYC from a distance. Which isnt fun. But this state has this huge paranormal history... Actually its prolly the same as other states just crammed into less space so ghost hunting is always an option.

Well since Britt is a Jineddy (Jinny and Teddy) and Morganne is a Jinanybody (Jin and Anybody) I'm a JinMag, now you can figure that one out on your own.

*Me, Britt, and Morganne are self appointed message board bad girls...we rebel against self appointed moderators... You know who you are!*

On April 24, 2008, Dana and I are going to meet in LA and handcuff ourselves to Nancy McKeon and Jay Harrington, and you're not. Ahahaha!

"COME ON! SAY IT WITH ME!" *LOL!*

ISmellFine · 08-18-2001, 03:16 PM

We have a mall and about 40 fast food places. VisionLand is about an hour away, and so is the Galleria and The Summit. But I never go there much. So there's not really anything to do here in the little hick town of Gadsden.

Jinny: If you think for one minute that I am gonna stand here and listen to all of you talk about me, your out of your damn minds.

Jinny: Oh, come on, folks, please, don't be shy. Apparently anyone is welcome to crap all over me tonight, so please, step right on up!

Notice: If you copy me, I will be forced to send you to the outermost reigons of the pig where you will suffer, for I am Kaley: Queen o' the Pigs and Penguins!

Man, you sure do like to be talked to. If you are opened to suggestions I've got one for you: Be patient. You won't always get a reply. I've had quite a few of my topics go without even one post. The fact is sometimes that happens and you can't let it bother you. There will be plenty of topics that will get a reply.

Back on topic, The only thing of interest here is a ranch a few stores, a park...and thats it.

folfan01 · 08-18-2001, 04:00 PM

Oh. Now I know why I can't live in the big apple. My mom says there's too much traffic, pollution, and crime. Who cares!

Cokies and IluvJo&Blair... you two seem to have much to do in your respective places of residence... so answer me this... why do you both have well over five hundred posts on this thing? Hahaha! Go out! Enjoy where you live! Take advantage of it!!! As you can see, the majority of the people here say their towns have nothing... I'm inclined to believe them because I can surely sympathize with a dead town. I used to live in a fairly "happening" area... and I lived so close to NYC that it would've been a crime for me to not take advantage of it. But alas, things change... and I'm stuck out here in the middle of nowhere for a while. (Hopefully not too long)

But even here, I've come to realize that where you live is what you make of it. You can be surrounded by nothing and still have a great time hanging out and such, or you can be surrounded by everything you could possibly imagine and be bored to death because you don't take advantage of it. See my point?

coily2 · 08-18-2001, 04:22 PM

I can do anything I want here. That's the charm of a big city.
