Get the Stallowned mug.It amazes me of all the silly descriptions of a small town by ignorant people on here. No, I dont live in one, but I did for a while. They are not all the same. Yes, some are poor, but some are also very affluent (Lake Zurich, Illinois for example).
A small town is the anithesis of a big city, which is not necessarily a bad thing. A small town is a community where people are a generally friendly, laid back folk, and where everybody knows almost everybody there. If you stop and ask for directions, the person giving you the directions will probably turn it into a conversation. The community is probably a speed trap, but the police who give you a speeding ticket are often known and called by their first name. You are usually not afraid to unlock your doors (although I wouldn't do it). Most businesses in town are family-owned ma-and-pa stores threatened by the Walmart nearby, which is probably the community's largest employer. The Mayor probably has another job on the side. You also know your'e in a small town because the people raise a stink over a new business coming in, fearing that it will create "traffic congestion." Some small towns can be suburbs or exurbs of a large meropolitan area.

Get the small town mug.A badass podcast based in the United States. The Hosts of the show Jimmie Whisman and James Pietragallo give their opinions, first hand accounts of similar situations, and their hilarious take on a true murder in a truly small town.
"Dude have you heard the new episode of Small Town Murder?"
"Not completely. I'm listening to it right now."
"Jimmie throws up cause James tells him such a hilarious story. Let me know when you get that part."

Get the Small Town Murder mug.A fist fight occurring on a public street, sidewalk, storefront, alleyway, etc.
The name alludes to the propensity of small-town residents to be intimately involved in the affairs of their neighbors, occasionally leading to violent altercations when encountering others in public. This is especially pronounced on weekends and in local bars or taverns where gossip and taunting is more likely to escalate to violence.
The name also refers ironically to the stereotypical portrayal of small-town “hicks” and their radical opposition to dancing, as was portrayed in the popular 1984 musical drama Footloose, starring Kevin Bacon.

“Hey how was your weekend?”
“Oh, it was alright. Went to the bar on Saturday night and got into a little small-town street-dance with Donny after I told him I got up in his sister’s guts.”

Get the small town cemetery mug.A little community of hopeless squalor mythologized Norman Rockwell-style as "friendly!" (translation: nosey) and "a great place to raise kids!" (translation: drive by shootings are written up as accidental discharges of a firearm in the local paper). Pits of desperate poverty, despair, racism, dysfunction, ignorance, sleaze and drunken failure.
I saw a "re-nig' sticker on truck at the Oak Bar in Seguin...typical small town.
I'm from a small town - I knew girls in high school who were "pregnant" for three years.
Many small town people possess a flattened DNA helix.
