I like cities. I like large cities. I like enormous cities. I don't like when I'm forced to live in something small. I love when there are lots of people around me.
People anonymize. When there are lots of people, you can be anyone, and nobody would care. Too many people to care. You'll never meet anyone again unless you have to. And it's wonderful.
But if you want to meet someone again, it's much easier to find someone to want to meet when there are lots of people, different people, weird people around.
Cities give you your weirdos and cities five you your freedom.
