the city lives while the sprawling suburbs die. dying a slow death watching hockey games, basketball games, dance competitions, and baseball games. the city lives while the sprawling suburbs are quietly falling asleep. falling asleep by nine pm so they can wake up at five am to get to their jobs at 6am. to work eight hours for a shitty company making shitty money so they can own a shitty home in a shitty suburban town. urban sprawl at it’s worst.
the city is filled with young people aspiring to make a difference in this beautiful yet shitty world. the city rarely sleeps. the energy is fucking contagious with all of it’s fire, anger, love, rage, hope!!! hopeful in times of despair. while suburban families worry about their neighbour’s having backyard fires where women dress in fake lulu lemon pants and guys wear big baggy shorts and drink shitty piss for beer, city folk are changing the world. fighting the system. fighting the governments. fighting the establishment. the establishment that has attempted to ruin this beautiful world and would have succeeded if not for the fiery youth of our many cities. while suburbanites watch The Bachelor and The Bachelorette the city folks are drinking in pubs, having meaningful conversations, producing films, producing music, producing theatre, discovering cures for diseases etc etc etc.
city living is filled with such fire. such hope.
suburban sprawl is filled with tim Horton’s and churches. churches that have been outdated for over forty years but sad semi souls still attend hoping for a miracle to pull them out of their shitty lives. complacency the norm while thinking long ago lost in bad beer and big trucks. cold hockey arena’s sucking the brains out of once semi intelligent men and semi sexy women. women who were once consumed by their attire and their breasts and their bums now wearing track pants filled with chocolates from the Dollar Store.
Trump, politics, taxes, real estate, school teachers, sports teams, Boston Pizza, Kelsey’s, McPuke’s, Tim Hortons’ the topics of choice in useless conversation that ends up with zero solutions on life but many solutions on death. human beings who were once little kids filled with such hope for life are now counting down the days until they can retire. retire to do nothing but continuing along the same path to nothingness. nothingness in life and nothingness in death. a whole shitload of nothingness. the blind always leading the blind but never finding the correct key to get out of their shitty towns.
A world filled with beautiful cities like London, New York, Berlin, Dublin, Paris, Barcelona, Rome, and Tokyo are merely dots on a map for the suburban minds that prefer trips to Florida and Vegas.
Jack Tait wonders why people would choose suburban living over city living. he has asked people but has never gotten a truthful answer. the answer’s always begin with the suburbs being safer but Jack wonder’s what the suburbs are safer from? safer? safer how? less to do? yes. lights generally out at 10pm? yes. bars empty? yes. less distractions? yes. safer from fucking around on your spouses? yes. safer from differing opinions? yes. SAFER??? SAFER??? SAFER??? everything is safe if you do not live. you can choose to hide in the basement of your shitty townhouse which is built on top of your neighbour’s shitty townhouse and pretend that you love your life and you will have all of your dull family members agree with you but then you will turn on the tv and drool over useless non talented celebrities on the Bachelor or American Idol. celebrity worshippers are NOT living. they are dying. dying slowly around a small campfire discussing the latest buffoon of a mayor. hoping for their new saviour but in ten years the only difference in their lives will be their bellies being bigger and their kids brattier. dumb and dull humans passing down their wealth of useless knowledge onto their offspring and eventually the cycle continues until you have a whole society of useless irrelevant buffoons that are dull, dumb, and complacent.
Urban Sprawl a colossal failure but the politicians who planned this mess of dullness almost dead and certainly forgotten.
FUCK ALL OF THE POLITICIANS AND USE YOUR OWN BRAIN!!!
