Into town, uptown, downtown, midtown, townhouse; I always found it weird how city folks would still use the word town so much as if their elevated status was actually just one syllable too many to bother with.
But then weird things happen in the city.
Mostly just things you hear, you know, like giant rats or glowing cats, yet... sometimes…
Derek swears it was true… people rising from the ground, then going about their normal business. Only in a city, man, only there…
And I’m sure I once saw a walking tree.
Yeeaah… it’s definitely safer in the real towns.
