Country - The sticks as it is sometimes referred to. Civilization is hard to come by out here.

Small town - There are people here, but not a whole lot. One store, one gas station, one school (maybe K-12). Not quite the country, but not quite a suburb either.

Suburbs - Track homes, community recreation centers, school buses and mini vans galore! You're not quite in the hustle and bustle of the city, but there aren't sirens and horns honking every other minute.

Big city - The never-ending, go-go-go environment with rich nightlife and plenty of people and even equal the amount of traffic. Big cities tend to test your patience!
 
I live in a relatively large town and I'm sick of all the traffic and people! Time to move out to the country and get some peace. I voted country.

Fair enough. I lived in a small town before moving to the city, which sucked because I'm from southern California and it's not so country out there for the most part. I guess I'm just used to the massive amount of people and mostly prefer it over the quiet, humdrum of the country. I need action, I need noise (to an extent). Portland is actually quite the great city because it's not too big and it's not too small. It gets much quieter at night and picks up in the morning. I don't live directly in downtown, but I am still in the city, so I don't have to deal with the nightlife that can be found 5-10 minutes away. I still much prefer the city, though. The suburbs and small town were much too boring for my blood.
 
Big city, as i'm only 20 at the moment I feel i'd get a bit bored in the country though I completely understand and agree with the benefits it gives.

The ideal option would be mon-fri in the city, sat-sun in the country. Or something similar.
 
I should specify, I'd rather live in the country near a larger city. Around here you can be in a city, drive a little bit and then *BOOM* your instantly surrounded by nothing but fields and cows.
 
im a country boy at heart, now live in a large town (population of @90,000)
 
Country girl here! I live in a custom log home on a 23 acre wooded lot. I'm so out in the country that I use dial up to connect to the internet. :lol: My nearest neighbor is several miles down the road. Love the privacy along with the peace and quiet. :yes:

It takes me less than 30 minutes to get from my house to the city. The city is a major hub of activity. That's also where the hospital is located where I work. Way too much congestion and noise for my liking! :nono:

Where's the normal city/town option?

I would just consider that a "suburb". It doesn't necessarily mean you live in a track home, but suburbs are just normal-sized towns outside of the city, so if that's what you're looking for then pick the 'burbs.
 
I feel like every option besides the fourth would be extremely boring. Perhaps if you're taking a break (temporarily) with your partner or sth, it's tolerable but besides that uneventfulness is not appealing.
 
Did you spank the monkey? ;)
 
Would you like to? :evilgrin: :LOL:

Was that doable? Could punch Roger in the Who Framed Roger Rabbit? NES game.

Was that doable?
When you play solo and both Donkey and Diddy are active (neither of them is in a barrel), you can switch between them at any moment. When switching from Donkey to Diddy, Donkey gives Diddy a spank to "tell" him to take the lead. Hard to notice on smaller screens and if you're not paying a close attention. ;)

*deadpans* Why, you wanna help? :p :evilgrin:
