Homosexuals do that too. Ask them to describe them self and they will have to tell you about their sexuality within the first 30 seconds. Straight people don't do that.

That just tells you that it was silly to settle there in the first place.

Humans should form dense clusters of population and then leave the rest to the animals and trees.

EDIT: Intercepted by Merit's bit about homosexuals. It will end well for sure.

European cities were often built centuries ago before cars and were set up as such, whereas a lot of American cities are or at least expanded much more recently and so the distances are much greater. I really can't go anywhere on my bike and there aren't many places to live around my metropolitan where that would be different. Americans genuinely need cars just to get anywhere.

I didn't say that they were f*cking retards for doing so, just pointed it out. You can criticize people for being Texan but I can't point out a personality quark about homosexuals? Take your whiny ass bullsh*t elsewhere.

I'd vote for this.

It's really more about when our cities developed in relation to transportation advances. Older cities like Philadelphia and Boston don't have that problem.

Totes. I'm all about nuking the world into mild armageddon and then taking the few millions who remain and creating hamlets connected by dirt roads.

"mild armageddon"

I like that. I'm not a monster, so I wouldn't want a harsh armageddon.

They probably just think that you're hitting on them, cutie.

I don't want the planet to become uninhabitable or Fallout to happen. I just want billions to perish so we can have a sensible population who couldn't destroy the environment if we wanted to.
