Tell me something awesome or bizarre about where you live.
 

It's always good to know about other places. Makes you feel grounded.

We put milk in bags :)

- A proud Canadian

We LOVE poutine !

I live near the woods...there is a film production studio there...in the woods there is a mysterious half circle shaped underground bunker...its like a giant letter C ...there is a fence with barbed wire on top around the whole complex and there is no way in or out...the entry is obviously underground and leads to somewhere else in the woods...inside the complex there are lampposts, mowed lawns, about 20 telescopic security cameras, about 10 metal doors that are on the inside of the letter C...the outside of the letter C goes underground...it is about the size of a football field...it is super mysterious...

cowboy capital of the world

Nuclear bunker?

I have no idea what that is..

Edit: Poutine is a dish originating from the Canadian province of Quebec consisting of French fries and cheese curds topped with a brown gravy

Sounds disgusting.

You buy it from a shop in bottles though, right?
Then you transfer it to bags?

Why?

If you go out late at night to the golf course I live off of to see the stars and feel the ocean breeze, you will sometimes see a white owl that prays on the baby rabbits that come out to eat the grass at night.

monarch bay golf?

Awesome and bizarre in my town? That would be me.

Monarch Beach Golf Links Yep, part of the Monarch Beach Resort :thumbsup

The Monarch Bay Golf Club is part of it but it's a private club on the beach, not attached to the course.

Portland, among its other oddities, has a guy who calls himself the Unipiper and rides around town on a unicycle wearing a kilt and a Darth Vadar helmet while playing bagpipes that shoot fire in the air.

we have lots of nuclear bunkers being that we are an ex commie state...I know what they look like this is completely different...too many doors and too much security and theres no way past the fence and its in the woods...its super mysterious...

The city I live in is known for it's clay, and we have a company here called Gladding McBean. They make pottery, dishes, pipes, and roofing. They made the dishes most families in the US used from the 1950s to the 1990s. They also supply a lot of the terra cotta roofing so popular here in California. Gladding McBean also makes pipes that are used for water and sewage. One way or another if you live in the United States you have most likely used their products - or had your crap carried away in their products.

A religious owl?! Or did you mean preys? A religious owl that prays over bunnies sounds .. like ... you are stoned!

I have a coyote in my front yard, the coyote ate the guys dog in the guest house.

what is unique about the clay in that area?

I've seen some of those used as location sets in a few movies :thumbsup

My town is known for murder in the 70's by a religious cult. One woman went down on the dead girl and the newspapers couldn't stop mentioning that. I don't remember it but researched it for a high school report. The female murderer is still in jail, forty-plus years later. Good behavior but they nailed her for the crime.

Awesome is being near the ocean, the private guarded multi-million dollar homes, mom & pop stores, memories of the old drive-in and eating lobster rolls on the beach that were caught an hour ago.

Bizarre is no chain supermarkets, one-lane highways (hours delay to get to the beach due to traffic), and more elderly retired people than yuppies.

I live very close to the centre of Sydney, we have a massive problem with wild turkeys even more since this article was written:

Brush turkeys invading suburban Sydney backyards

Vancouver B.C. .Olympic city over-run by greedy Asians snapping up all available real estate leaving housing unaffordable and driving people away.

My street was mentioned in an article on the Daily Stormer.

(because of a Muslim rapist)

The main toilets on the Den are STILL not open... :(

Not all girls have a pussy :stoned

if you step on Thailand's money bearing the King's face, it's illegal, and you are more likely to be beat down by anyone who saw you do it..

Just look at False Creek at night... all the high-rises are dark, place looks like a ghost town :2 cents:

People here love eating & drinking on the terraces so much that they will start doing so even when its only 5^c outside.

I live in a very small community about 3 miles from Agoura Hills. this is down town a guy living out here raised peacocks...now they run wild in the area... thankfully the numbers seems down. coyotes I'm thinking.... very aggressive BIG birds with BIG claws :2 cents:

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Our city unofficially has the most boozer cruisers (ebikes) and seniors in scooter buggies per capita than any other.

How is it either awesome (only benefit that it is cheaper for consumer, the only reason why people buy milk in bags) or bizzare (pretty common in lots of countries in Europe, Asia, America) ?

Asian invasion.

Dunno.

I swear I'm not making this up - It sounds like I'm ripping it from Seinfield - But we have the "feats of clay" every year: https://www.bizjournals.com/sacramen...eturns-as.html

Melbourne, FL.. about 30 miles south of Cape Canaveral where the rockets launch...

Back in the 30s some of the big mob bosses used to hang out here because it was small enough town to not attract publicity but big enough to not be seen.

Jim Morrison from the Doors lived here as a kid.

Jim Rathman a race car driver won the Indy 500 and Chevy gave him a dealership here. In the 50s he gave astronauts brand new corvettes. He and his son are now in jail for laundering money for the mob..

Notorious gangster, Whitey Bulger, was captured here several years ago--he'd been hiding in plain sight, and had hundreds of thousands of dollars and weapons stashed in the walls of his apartment.

Most third world countries sell milk that way. Canada is no different certainly.

People have been living here since the 12th century. Human habitation in this area goes back to the Stone Age.

It's friendly, safe, cheap and multi-cultural :P

It's the city with the most Romanesque churches in all of Europe.

I am the only bizarre thing in my village - Well, that and the three headed devil dog that wanders the streets eating small children - We don't talk about that though...

What did you use to make all those nifty cave drawings?

I can understand your point :)... We order a large/huge one at the show every year, especially for foreigners attendees.

And you're right, at first people look at it and they're like, Ewww... but when they taste it, they're like, WoW !...

And despite everyone is saying, this has been invented in Quebec City, Not Drummondville nor Victoriaville :thumbsup
