Bitching about the place makes departure impossible. A neat arrangement the Chamber of Commerce has with certain neurotransmitters.
Curious feature:
CityLife is founded on words, and while words are this universe’s most expeditious conveyor of information, most citizens are malnourished. (Having no outside standard for comparison, they do not realize it, however, and no harm is done.)
“Pa, is it possible for any actual harm to be done in our universe?”
“Only if it is attempting suicide.”
“Hummmmm, well how ‘bout: same question regarding, in-my-mind?”
“Same answer.”
