When I was working at mcdonalds, one time this large group of asian tourists was there, and when they were waiting for their food they were all crowded around the fountain machine taking pictures and pointing at it in awe. it was pretty funny because its not unique in any way (the mcdonalds was attached to a gas station and the gas station had TWO FOUNTAIN MACHINES which is more hilarious imo)
yes coulombs are "germaine", did you learn that word at talk like a dick school?

Asian tourists are seriously the most bizarre tourists.  Apparently one time my brother caught some asian tourists taking a picture of him.  This is strange because my brother doesn't have any hilarious deformities.

If we're talking about hometowns, not places we currently live, here's mine:

I love how it's the "5th largest town in the Northern Territory" and the population is 3,500. NT is so bare :(​.

Highlands Ranch, CO!

According to a 2006 estimate, the median income for a household in the CDP was $97,627, and the median income for a family was $101,373.[1] Males had a median income of $62,474 versus $40,910 for females. The per capita income for the CDP was $34,707. 1.8% of the population and 1.2% of families were below the poverty line, including 1.7% of those under the age of 18 and 4.1% of those 65 and older.

pretty much...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miass this is where don miguel, the legendary translator of RM95 and RM2k lives... it's also where his game "NIGGERS VS SATAN" takes place

damn :(

I was so happy when I learned where Don Miguel comes from but nobody listened :( (I made a topic about it I think)

Those pictures couldn't be any tinier (the battle BGs in NvS give a better idea of what Miass looks like)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren,_Michigan
I was born in Warren, Michigan. Among other things, Warren was responsible for a quarter of the Sherman tanks produced by the US for WWII. The only reason I mention that fact is because I grew up next to the tank plant that built those. Of course, by the time I was born, the plant was pumping out M1 Abrams. At one point in their lives, both of my biological parents worked at that tank plant.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_Line
You really can't mention Warren without talking about Center Line. I did most of my schooling in this tiny excuse of a town which is completely surrounded by the city of Warren. Apparently, the only thing Center Line is known for is the fact that some of Michigan's earliest prominent families are buried at the cemetery across from the grocery store.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingsville,_Ontario
This is where I live now. We're Canada's most southern town and home to the Jack Miner bird sanctuary as well as Colasanti's tropical gardens. I would also like to personally add that Kingsville is a tourist trap of a town and someone needs to clean up the beaches.

Hooray, we have a church and a school...what an interesting place.
Upon arriving the attending doctor could find no abnormal physical symptoms other than extremely dilated pupils. After spending several hours terrified that his body had been possessed by a demon, that his next door neighbor was a witch, and that his furniture was threatening him, Dr. Hofmann feared he had become completely insane.
