“Well, you may not know it, but there’s a certain neo-con, knee-jerk, let-’em-build-the-fucking-crap contingent out there in Commentland who thinks you’re all from Kansas…You’ll see these on a regular basis on the real estate-based blogs, usually coming in defense of some crapitecture Scarano, Fischer, the Toll Brothers, Thor or some like-intentioned develo-raper is throwing up to blot out the noontime sun. Sometimes it’s Nebraska, or Iowa or somesuch. But usually it’s Kansas, which I guess is the anti-New York or the world. Kansas is apparently the place where skyscrapers aren’t built, condos don’t exist, ugly architecture is verboten and everything stays the same all the time, with nothing new ever built in anyone’s backyard.” Hmmm. We thought it was, “Go back to Ohio.”–Lost City
