Sorry. A town of 500? Seriously? We have bars with higher maximum fire-code capacity than that.
We have more people at a brat fry then you have in your entire town
I wasn't lying when I said I was born in the ass-end of nowhere.

The particular "town" I live in has a population of 41,000 but like in most major cities this is misleading; you wouldn't know where my town ends and the next begins unless someone told you w hich streets make the border. I think my area just broke off to try to join a better school district anyway.
I know border issues like that. Back in Sheboygan it was hard to tell where the City of Sheboygan ended and the Town of Sheboygan began. Yes, there is a city and a town with the same name, literally across the street from each other.

Jeez, the population of my entire country is just 4 million, our capital has around 1 million, and I come from a town of around 500.
Thats pretty much the same as hre but my home town is the second largest in our country and has 400k.

Your little brother is correct.
You can only subtract 5 from 25 once. After that, you'll be subtracting 5 from 20, 15, 10, etc.

I've got one:
"Black are we, and much admired
men seek for us if they're tired
we tire the horse but comfort man
say what we are, if you can."
