#1726 : AOL as an entire city
# You`d live in a place where no two people had the same name.
# You`d only pay $21.95 a month to live there, but half the time you tried to leave your house, the door would be stuck.
# Once you got outside, even if you were in a hurry, you`d be assaulted by slimy little door-to-door sales creeps offering you great AOL 14.4 modems for only $399.99.
# The commute to work is just a double-click away, but every time you try to leave your driveway, the flow of traffic knocks you back into your yard.
# The local post office would tell your mother you`re not a known resident.
# The local post office won`t forward your mail to you when you move.
# If you saw a crime and called 911, they`d reply a week later with a form letter saying how you "really are important to us."
# Every time you went shopping, you`d be kicked out of the store by a bouncer screaming, "WE`RE SORRY, THIS STORE IS TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE."
# Whenever you traveled to other cities, people would see your license tag and laugh at you, behind your back.
# You`d occasionally be sent home during your day by another bouncer telling you that the city has performed an illegal operation.
# You`d not have any idea who your neighbors are, and most new arrivals would move in at night, stuff everyone`s mailbox with garbage, and vacate before sun-up.
# The administration would build a huge, state of the art park, and allow the kids to play there free, then suddenly start demanding money.
