Oh, idk why, it's not like there's been a consistent theme to the stories, just a weird observation. It's a city of less than 200k people, but it's been very noteworthy throughout history, even. All the major tire companies used to be headquartered there, it's where a lot of the A-4 Corsairs were built during WWII, it was the site of the first general convention of the SDS, and where Sojourner Truth gave her famous "Ain't I a Woman" speech.
Ohio gets a lot of shit for being a bleak blob of generic "American" quintessence, but it used to be basically California before California existed. Lots of historical figures and a huge economic engine.
Incidentally, Akron also produced DEVO. It takes a special kind of life experience in the American purgatory to take the piss out of America so well.
No worries.
Why do you think that’s the case?
Huh?
The thing about Akron
