I once sent this video to a nice elderly couple from Cleveland and they never spoke to me again.

For the longest time, I thought the line about the river that catches fire was a joke and was just supposed to be a jab on how polluted it was. Until I looked it up. Turns out, the Cuyahoga river actually caught fire on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, causing millions in damages, due to the accumulation of years of oil building up. Amazing.

"Buy a house for a price of a VCR" good times

Lyrics~ Fun times in Cleveland again! (Still Cleveland) Come on down to Cleveland town everyone! Under construction since 1868! See our river that catches on fire! We’re so polluted that all our fish have AIDS. We see the sun almost three times a year! This guys has at least two DUIs! Our flats look like a Scooby Doo ghost town! Don’t slow down in east Cleveland or you’ll die! Our economy’s based on LeBron James! Buy a house for the price of a VCR! Our Maine export is crippling depression. We’re so retarded that we think this is art! It could be worse though at least we’re not Detroit! 😇

This is still one of the best things the internet has ever produced

"Where are you from?" Person 1: Vladivostok, Russia. It's pretty depressing. The sun barely ever comes out. We fought for food every day. Wolves would occasionally roam the streets, looking for food. The coal blackened our lungs. To this day, I still have problems breathing thanks to the charcoal air. I thank God I didn't get cancer. "How about you?" Person 2: A rural village in India. Every morning we would wake up at 5am to walk a mile to a nearby river, to gather water, wash our clothes and ourselves. We would then walk back under the scorching heat. By the time we made it back, some of the water would have evaporated from the heat. We would spend hours upon hours toiling in the field. We tried to help those who got sick or hurt, but most who got sick died, and those who got hurt couldn't work for weeks on end "And you?" Person 3: I lived in Cleveland "Holy shit, what the fuck?" Person 1: How are you still alive?! Person 2: Knowing I wasn't living in Cleveland is what kept me going through rough days! Person 3: Every day, I woke up to the smell of opioids in the air. Everyone was shooting drugs up their arm. Down every alleyway there was at least 3 people taking drugs. Those were on sunny days. On every other day however... *Silence* Person 3: Anyways, the streets were always in shambles. Broken up, garbage everywhere. It wasn't unusual to see garbage piles, and the rivers were full of the most putrid pollution. The school I went to was severely underfunded. At school, kids fought over food, water and clothes. If you weren't in a gang, you were probably already dead. I barely ever got to wash my clothes. Even if the water was running, it was usually dirty, so everyone smelt like shit. It wasn't strange to see most of the class missing. It was a miracle if 2 thirds were in. They were usually out to help their parents, who were on drugs. I myself, was beaten persistently by my drunken father, while my mother was too high on cannabis to care. Everywhere was not safe for me. In my home, my father beated me. At school, kids tried to rob my things. In the areas between, robbers and murderers lurked. It was a living nightmare I was forced to live for over 16 years. I only escaped it when some visitor dropped a train ticket to New York. I took it, grabbed what little I had, and fled to the train station.
