Indeed.

I drove through Nebraska in a big rental truck last Summer late at night and it was quite surreal. The downtown highway in Omaha has either high walls or tunnels, right? I was driving through and this large group of dudes on Japanese motorcycles came screaming through. It felt very Blade Runner-esque and then I thought, "But I'm in Nebraska!"

Yeah, that's Omaha. It's surreal at night no matter what. The crazy-rear end metal sculptures on one of the Council Bluff exit's overpass doesn't help

I have strong erections for Israel.
Strong, pathetic erections.

i-480 at night is cool as heck, elevated highways going right through downtown areas are awesome and more cities should have them

You could drink at duffy's or the watering hole

I could. I could drink at duffy's and pretend I'm 21 again and then go to the watering hole and remember how good the nice dank bar was. Right now you're telling me to go to a bar full of assholes and then a restaurant that used to be a nice seedy bar. I continue to feel that Orourkes is the correct choice.

The hole is great because there's a maximum of like 5 people there after 9 even on busy nights so you don't have to deal with crowds. Also $2 Empyreans 4 days a week.

On the internet "liberal" just means someone who can talk to a woman without getting enraged.

doesn't sound like you explored much, the suburb-ness doesn't start until like, idk, 50th or 60th street along Dodge

all the 'city' parts are up north or down south and it's really easy to just stay in the middle and never see them, or miss them because you don't live there, like in the Papillion/Bellvue area

even city things in the Papillion/Bellvue area sometimes look more like small town things. probably something to do with that whole 'separate towns' thing

No, but I saw a band called Pornhuskers open up for GWAR a long time ago. They had strippers on stage giving each other enemas. It was an interesting show.

one time i bought a keg and couldnt lift it into my car, and the only people working at the store were girls weaker then me. well after struggling for 5 minutes we see a semi pass by like a block away, the driver pulls over to the side of the road, runs over, helps me put the keg in my car and then leave. that poo poo happens in omaha because people are just so loving nice here and its awesome. this type of poo poo happens quite a bit.
