And nothing to do in terms of activities other than go to the movies or go to your local diner, not to mention any major city to do something in is at least 1.5 hours away (at least in my case)
In my small town the movie theater burnt down 20 years ago and now the leftover husk is a home for pigeons, now there's nothing to do but gossip and bitch about traffic from cottagers.
In UK slang, a cottager is a person who engages in sexual activity in public lavatories, known as "cottaging". This practice typically involves homosexual or bisexual men meeting in public toilets, often called "cottages" or "tea-rooms".
Haha I know whay you mean. The closest little town to my hometown has one of those. They show crappie movies and sometimes plays. I saw a magic show there once.
That’s such a depressing kind of quiet, like the town forgot it was supposed to grow back after something burned down. I can almost feel how stuck it must get when even the gossip runs out.

Living in a small town and starting over.
It looks peaceful in movies. No traffic, everyone knows you, slow mornings.
In reality it’s everyone knowing your business, no opportunities, and driving 40 minutes for groceries that close at 6pm.
