Block Island is a beautiful place to live, and I'm totally biased considering I've lived here over 10 years. In the winter, the kids all go to a normal public
school just like anyone else would, and they take a regular bus just like any other kids would. When
summer starts to roll around, we begin shunning and make a mockery of the tourists because every
summer, the island is infested with
people who have never driven mopeds, but try it anyway, and snobby rich
people who think they can do whatever they want. At night, all the drunks poke out of their caverns and make disgusting fools of themselves.
Other than that, Block Island is wonderful. We've got beaches. But seriously, not all the
people who live here are loaded. We
don't all own billions of houses. This place is really fucking expensive, and it sucks ass, but it's worth it because there's not that many
people. It's a small town, full of typical working people who have typical incomes, and some not so well off, and if anyone tries to say that the island is full of rich, snobby, stuck up kids, again, I will personally find them and teach them a lesson.
In conclusion, do not judge the island based off of the tourists. You have to actually live here to know what the hell you're talking about.

teenager: Well it's almost
summer, you know what that means.
Island teenager 2: ugh yeah, hot
people who are completely unavailable and drunken idiots and tourists who have no idea what the hell they're doing on Block Island
IT: I love when they ask how to get someplace *laughter*
IT2: I know right?! It's like, buddy, walk in a straight line, or follow the main road. You'll get there easily. Trust me. Haha
