lol, I'm from a town of 9000 people, and in my state that still wasn't a "small town". We had a pizza joint! People drove to our town because we had a pizza joint. Douche has no idea what it's like being in a small town.
My town of 3,000 had the only Walmart and a grocery store around lol.
Nobody acted tough I never even saw a single fight. People mostly avoided eachother when they weren't doing activities or shopping. Mostly just a bunch of introverts.
You had a walmart? Damn look at you and your fancy high falootin' society over here.
And no, no one ever got in fights in my town, there was a lot of tough toxic masculinity brovado, but everyone was too afraid to get in fights. No the real thing is what I alluded to, small towns like to say they're nice but really everyone is gossiping behind everyone's back because there's nothing else to talk about.
