Breezewood PA if anyone wants to know the town. Peak Northeast Americana.
Drove through this town on the way to Pittsburgh once when I was a kid. Grim stuff
The nature is nice, sure, but if you live in one of these little podunk towns that are rest stops off the interstate there's not much to do besides eat junk food, watch tv, and drink yourself to death.
no no you are supposed to get run over by a 10 ton pickup truck while crossing a 6 lane stroad.
Not really. The rest area is a noticeable stain on the nature. And tbh plenty of pretty nature is something that can be said about America without hesitation
I guess saying that it's "manipulative photo techniques" is technically accurate but like, the point of that image to me has always been "regardless of whether this specific place is real, we all know a place that looks kinda like this and how soul-destroying the American highway system is when you get away from the individualist propaganda about cars" and that's why it caught on as a meme in the first place. Hell, I assumed it was photoshopped or something. If nobody related to it then it wouldn't have spread anywhere.
