Oh, this person chatted me last week. Asking about places to go & visit in Maine. Told them I'm a hardcore fucking homebody, not their personal tour guide, and to check the fucking megathread like every other flatlander.

Haha. I told them this: "DON'T COME HERE! Lobsters are toxic, the people are frigid, and most of us have syphilis. If you decide to ignore that advice, then definitely go to Lewiston."

Born in Lewiston. I take offense. Not really. 🥲 I did move out around age 7 or so, so I think I’m mostly okay.

It was kind of hell when I was there, I was just too young to realize lol.

There was the apartment complex fire, the sex offender up the road, the their neighbor who stole my game boy, the local tire slasher, the police searching the woods with dogs. All kinds of fun lol.

Right? My guess is they’re going through lots of local subs looking for easy marks.
