Gainesville, FL

Also known as Hell. A mediocre place to come for four years to get an education, yet a horrific place to subject your children to grow up in. Full of pretentious hipsters and yuppies, everything is driven by money and trends, and you are judged at every opportunity, though the judges are too good of people to really pass judgment. The term ACR has been coined to describe lifelong residents born in the mother county, Alachua, and most are miserable until they escape it's clutches. This term does not refer solely to rednecks and Wal-Mart shoppers with four teeth.

Gainesville is also home to the Florida Gators, the college football team with the most ridiculously deluded fan base anywhere. When they win, everyone shoves it in your face (even if you're not of the opposing team), yet when they lose, they act like the game didn't even happen instead of gracefully acknowledging defeat. Gainesville is one of the main producers of Football Haters in the world because of this, far surpassing Europe.
