    Certainly that’s what she felt like, but parts of the Midwest are strikingly flat with disturbingly regular road layouts, especially to someone who hasn’t been there before. My brother jokes that the biggest hill near him is the landfill and there’s too much truth to that

    It’s very different from the hilly area she was used to, where the joke is more like “the roads were not planned but just evolved from wildlife paths following natural features“

      I guess I must be “retarded” as well - I don’t get what’s so funny about someone being impressed or otherwise stricken with the landscape of a place they’ve never been to.
