>>534466757Graysons in Wytheville or similar price/quality
The fentanyl addicted whores
>>534466799Kek
>>534466757The woods.No foot traffic there, so anything you leave behind never gets found.
>>534466757Wherever humans and cryptids leave me alone.
>>534466876I had a bit o trouble finding decent quality food in that area last time. I stayed the night at a rental cabin on a hill which was fine except for the toilet being kinda fucked and flushing all the time. Graysons just seems like a random syscoslop dinner.
>>534466757the women
>>534466757The town thats full of geriatric boomers after the coal mined closed and they do nothing but guzzle down welfare and seethe.
>>534466876>Wythevillemy NRV nigga. for me it's Macados in Marion
>>534466757privacy and not having to see my neighbors.i dont hate them, its just nice truly being alone and free around my house.i go outside in my boxers. im surrounded by trees in every directionim from nevada so this is just an alien world to me. been here for 5 years and im never going back. also everythings so cheap. Just a 10 minute drive to walmart away.
It sounds like poor people worship, but Appalachian mountain pipo have a distinct air of humanity about them that isn't found on liberal cosmopolitan treatlers.
>>534467161based I like the random boomer museums that's just a room in a house off some country road. There's a "radio museum" and "cryptid museum"
>>534467265that sounds kino as heck
>>534467246jews have brainwashed you into thinking poor people are bad because they dont feed into the jewish gdp pyramid scheme.i work 1/4th the amount i did when i had a fancy office job and im more free than I've ever been and id argue im more rich than ive ever been despite making less.
>>534467246This must be be the right wing version of the noble savage looks like kek. You fucks are delusional.
>>534467240but so many people in appalachia live in trailer parks where it's one trailer right up against another
>>534466757The tiny spot in the corner of Massachusetts.
I like having deep woodsate night kegger parties with squatch and the local wendigos can hook you up with anything you are looking for
>>534467361being poor is a mindset. most poor people are poor because they are subhumans that are lazy or waste all their money
>>534466757Free poop?

>>534466757>What is your favorite part of Appalachia?Moth man vibes
>>534467385>'ler was a liberal>right wingLurk 2 more years if you can't tell what quadrant the holder of this thought would land on.
>>534467132Graysons is oldstyle cheap greasy spoon and one of the few places I've had an actual chicken friend stake that wasn't Sysco/frozen solid. Them Dawg House, and a sprinkling of other places around like Downtown Pioneer in Marion have survived in the area because they are extremely cheap and still good enough, or at least not yet Private Equity bad. We accepted the trade off of cooking the majority of our own stuff at home and having a cute brunch of other small mean for fun on occasion to live out here though, so I understand what you're saying. I miss Sushi.>>534467208 I drive back and forth through there often enough that I'll give them a try next time. I frickin love how cheap wings are out here. Marion upsets me because it's house prices are sticking above 200k+ for anything livable, but it's just as out of the way as Pulaski, etc. It was the furthest north we could go when my wife wanted to live near the Tri-cities down there but that whole area is tough for a first time home buyer to get into.
>>534467700>so I understand what you're sayingthere was one place in abingdon with decent food but it would have been a wait until they opened so I got gas station burritos and they were very badIt would be nice to see places that put in a bit more effort to make homemade food.
>>534467516>Free poop?You're thinking of Texas or Canada, most likely
>>534466757the white parts.
>>534466757The white trash.
>>534467777The region, from a living here perspective, is very tied to aging/poverty. Rent is pinned to SSI/Section8/Disability for anything "nice/new" and is 1200 a month. Whereas normal working people wage is low enough that you can find shittier places for $600 a month that aren't as nice that normal people can live in. Like I live in a place that has stairs that old people can't climb so it's dirt cheap. This distinction translates across a lot of the strata so you have either nicer almost fancy stuff from the influx of LGBTQ that's riding the gentrification wave hoping to collect up all the younger families moving here. But the majority of it is still the dirt cheap $10 for a full meal style "slop". My wife sells at farmers markets in the area (hence why I drive through Marion at all), and there are a pathetic number of actual FOOD trucks, because people are simply unwilling/unable to pay much more than $10 a plate, even at a fair. But you can find a hotdog cart or other quick fry cheap readily. I'm REALLY hoping with that much development to my area that we're going to get more successful things like Purple Cactus, etc. but this contention manifests as $200k "starter home" in a town where most people make under $15/hr. because the area LOOKS like it can sustain the old-people-money level when it cannot. My wife's just gotten super good at chinese and now knows how to make Greek and a few other necessary flavor additions that make the weekly meals bearable.
Idk only thing to do around here is go hunting and fishing and then get fucking hounded by state police faggots 24/7. Thinking about moving to Florida.
>>534468214Florida is money squeezing atm like every county/city/state that's feeling boomer power dwindle. tax, insurance, "hidden" stuff. and It will only get worse. However, if that's how you feel you SHOULD "get out". Try a city for a bit. It's too much of a grinding treadmill that keeps you just above water for me because I didn't "make it" or whatever. But you may do better or see the difference and come back. No harm in trying as long as you have a ripcord $ wise to get out before you get trapped in drugs and crime (different than here).
>>534468096what is purple cactus?its nice to find places that are not "fine dining" but seem a step above sysco/diner slop made to sell cheaply on a huge menu and "discount grocery stores" are kinda a nightmare too>>534468214the rules for hunting are so autistic they make my eyes glaze over

>>534468439New lesbian owned taco place in Pulaski that has queso and fried chicken pickle tacos that you can dip into it.$3.50 a taco so we never go there but it was nice when they were out and about meeting active locals in the area and invited us over to try some.
>>534467458Happens when you disrupt the natural order of a land
>>534468439Dang man I used to have amazing mexican discount grocery stores with full produce isles and etc. back in Oregon. Here, yeah, t feels like discount here means amazon return pallet reseller or something which I had no idea existed. However, having just signed on a house, I cannot wait to close so I can drive around and find random half price shovels and piles of ALMOST enough landscaping bricks to make something, etc. at these places. Another mans trash-Food Lion isn't terrible price wise though.
>>534468592doesn't even say LGBTQ owned or friendly or whatever on google mapstacos are kinda boring but im sure its better than the nightmare gas station mexican places I've tried>$3.50 a taco so we never go there see this is the issue people aren't willing to pay for homemade foodI get the ridiculousness of like say 40-50$+ steak and seafood offerings in a place like this, but trying to do something a little nicer isn't badwould be nice to see more baked goods
>>534466757The fact that I don't have to be there
>>534468715tim's cascade chips were a step above the standard chip offerings>However, having just signed on a housetri-cities is kinda disappointingits just like a big strip mall with lots of people but nothing distinctive or niceI mean, you are near a lot of great hiking>>534468796but you could be, and there's lots of nice stuff to see
>>534466757the meth
>>534468726That's that distinction I'm talking about. The "old people pay 1200 a month in rent and, because they are old, MUST have money. That and the perma-breakfast every day social lingering that old people around here used to do in every possible semi-third space diner around. Yeah Pulaski had a gay mayor when we first got here as well. The fear of old people money not coming suppresses their natural Vegan/Crossfit level of in-your-face gayness. Same as how homeless here are avoidant instead of aggressive. You can make a chalupa at home that tastes as good as and better than taco bell. It's just a fried naan. For me personally I simply don't want to afford it. I don't like people and there's no "worth" in a server/customer interaction because there has always been no depth and nowadays there's no interaction. Scratch that I ate at a hardees last week driving through somewhere and the lady kept happening to clean near our table, asked if we were here for a race, and then repeatedly told us she has 4 kids and her power is out and a previous customer gave her a $100 tip. There's no worth in the cooking or food because it's doable at home, often better, and without the fat/salt. Private equity did a fucking NUMBER on the US. It's prudent, simply because of how they function, to avoid anything they own not through boycotting or objection but simply because the quality drops near-immediately. The change to homecooking that caused sealed the deal for many. Eating out is like going to starbucks for coffee now. An intentionally ruined product so you have to buy extras and are expected to want to pay more got the luxury.
>>534466757That it's a bastion for the white race by how secluded it is.
>>534468822Doritios has destroyed itself by allowing so many smaller companies like that to bloom because of their idiot pricing. "thick" chips from local companies are an easy favorite. And it was the farmers markets they have in Kingsport and Bristol that would give access to TN while living in VA. She could have probably doubled+ her prices at the markets down there because of the difference in lifestyle and income. We were looking at Gate City for example. Honestly it's to far out of the "climate refuge" zone I moved here for to begin with so I'm glad that realtor stopped talking to us after side-suggesting we consider a mobile home.
>>534469291Hmm you know I've seen signs for Gate City not sure if I've ever been there or if there is a there there but Bristol is pretty sad and disappointing.
>>534469181You would think so, but someone is sending illegal Hispanics out here. Don’t speak any english but you’ll see them shopping at Walmart. Usually in the afternoons/evenings. Not sure where they’re all staying. It’s like a flood of them recently in my small town.
>>534469370It felt more like a single-road pass-through town. I doubt we would have been very happy down there. Who knows. It feels like that area sprung up simply to have something there because it's a state line and on 81 and that side of TN/VA was mostly sparse. Town out here lean on their past so much mentally that it's hard for them to realize they're just a small town.
>>534469869The only reason you have Mexicans in your area is because your local Trailer Trash do not want to work; by government policy force Cletus back to work in retail/labor/fast food and the Mexicans will disappear.Also the government allows Appalachia to export all their young Shit Bags to the coasts via the military - that is why when you drive around any military town you see turd primer coated vehicles with plates from these regions. Many of them marry the first Flip/Korean hooker they have sex with and produce abomination offspring. Imagine if they all had to stay in their home states.
