welp we are locked down and past curfew…..sooooo…its pretty quiet here
not even the soothing sound of sirens in the distance somewhere…
(i dont know why but i kinda consider sirens a background noise that should be there when living in the city and get a little wierded out when i dont hear them for too long……. kinda like i got wierded out by the lack of air traffic during the first wave)
I’m the same way. I leave down the street from a fire station and I’m so used to sirens I barely notice them anymore. But when I go out of town I notice the absence of them.
i grew up in the sticks so when im there i like the quiet…its as it should be
but in the city…silence creeps me out…and i expect zombies or some shit…..lol
I grew up on the mean streets of Chicago’s Little Italy, but now I live in a place where they actually have hollers. In fact, I was down in the holler this very morning.
I live in the most CoVID area of the Greater Toronto Area. For example my neighbourhood went from 1-2 cases to 25+ in less than two months. Unlike some of my bosses, I don’t blame most of them because they were unfortunates like most people in this area. Unfortunately we have some really fucking unaware/selfish/dumb people here (seemingly) mostly young and male that can be blamed for a lot of this.
First thing that came to mind was the Mr Rogers theme song.

The sequel:
Well, we do have that one old lady & the meth heads down the street…

and the best bad neighbor song I can think of…
Gary Clark, Jr. – Next Door Neighbor Blues
The Dead Milkmen – Tiny Town

Now the roads are quieter because of lockdown.
