    For most of Americans this is a thought they honestly can’t grasp. Car culture and car brain are real. The first thing I head every time I see a post with a walkable neighborhood is “where is the parking?”. They truly never have thought about what life would be like without a car

      it was awesome. felt like icecream and I could walk less than two blocks and pick up a pint or a gallon. You never have to buy things because you might want them in a week or a month.

        Oh god I remember that from the Midwest. Oh you need milk? Better get in the car and drive 15-20 minutes one way to get to the closest (and most expensive) store. By the time you get back you brined at least $5 in gas, not counting the cost of the milk.
