Tell it to Timgad.

Didn't everyone who actually knew where it was die?

Eventually...it just got eaten by the desert in the 7th century.  It's gone.

I don't see your point.

You CAN kill a City.

By that standard, and your definition, ideas can be killed.

Isn't that a nice thought to warm you on a cold winter's day?

You can't kill the city
The city will live on
Villages tried to kill the city
But they failed, as they were smite to the ground
Towns tried to kill the city
But they failed, as they were stricken down to the ground
Conurbations tried to kill the city Hahahahahaha
They failed, as they were thrown to the ground
Aargh! yaow!

[Singing]

No-one can destroy the city
The city will strike you down with a vicious blow
We are the vanquished foes of the city
We tried to win for why we do not know

Conurbations tried to destroy the city, but the city had its way
Towns then tried to dethrone the city, but the city was in the way
Villages tried to destroy the city, but the city was much too strong
Hamlets tried to defile the city, but hamlets were proven wrong
Yea!

Cities!
They come from surplus trade goods!

Maybe.  They salt the streets a lot of places though, doesn't seem to stop people from living in them.

I suppose because nowadays, most food isn't grown within large urban centers.

really wonder about that, how it'll affect the trees and other greens in coming spring. they salted the fuck out of our streets when we had that snow in the past few weeks.

It never hurts the grass in Salt Lake (we use overwatering to kill that).  The nice drainage system ensures all the salt gets swept into the ecosystem instead of staying in the city.

Ok, so thinking about this, Salt Lake exists pretty much because people come here when there's no place else left to go.  So all I have to do to kill this city is to fix the rest of the world.

Great, that should be easy.

Not in a city?

Everything is a City.  You said there was no difference, for example between a small City and a large town.  We can logically infer that there is thus no difference between a city--->town--->village--->hamlet--->single dwelling--->Belgium.

Actually he said there WAS a difference.  even if they have the same amount of people and infrastructure.  That difference is the idea.
You're a special case, Babylon.  You are offensive even when you don't post.

Merely by being alive, you make everyone just a little more miserable

But I already said that.

Where?  I must have missed that.

My first post on the thread.



Then what are you arguing about?
