Small Town Syndrome

When a person grows up in a small town and develops a fear or a belief that they couldn't handle any or all of the following: 1) Living in a large city
2) Attending a large institution for education
3) Attend large social events without friends or family
4) Not needing a car out of necessity for transportation

These fears also usually are accompanied by:
1) Reluctance to drive in large cities or on major highways
2) Fear of being unknown or not receiving the status, accomplishments, or recognition they are able to achieve in smaller populations
3) Reluctance to leave their home or hometown for large periods of time
4) Fear of missing out on small town traditions

These people generally believe and can see themselves marrying one of their classmates/someone they went to school with, buying a house, and raising a family in their hometown.
Jakob is afraid that if he goes to a big school that he won't get to be the quarter back anymore. We're pretty sure he's suffering from Small Town Syndrome.

small place

You are thought so little of, in someone’s mind they picture you to be very tiny and worthless POS, you may be called a “small place” if you mention that Japan is a small place because someone in your theatre class learned Japanese from overdosing on Anime, therefor you say who would want to learn Japanese because Japan is such a small place.
Me- “Who would want to learn Japanese because Japan is such a small place...”

Anime addict- “You’re a small place!”

Small business Saturday

The exact same groups of people that had small businesses shut down forever are the kinds of people that came up with small business Saturday.
Small business Saturday will never undo what is done to a business when it is forced to shut down for weeks or months at a time.

Small room

Small room is a genre of indie rock that is characterized by its DIY sound. The music is often recorded in small, makeshift recording spaces, such as bedrooms or basements, which gives it a raw and intimate quality.
