I live here and my gf conplains every time we go for a walk that I don’t mention how beatuiful it is

I lived within sight of the statue of liberty. Often forgot it was there.
I lived close enough to see the Manhattan skyline everyday. Never paid attention to it. Then I would have the occasional out of town visitor and they were just in awe at the sight of it.
TBF, if it was natural features it might catch more stares. I’m always taken away by the valleys running through my hometown, but these pyramids look foggy and mid from the street view
Can confirm, people here literally act like we don’t have a world known structure of tourism that is pyramids.
(I live in bosnia)
*grabs popcorn *
I live less than 30 miles away from 3 of the world’s most famous golf courses and I have literally zero interest in the sport. The closest one is just something I cycle through occasionally.
Take it for granite.
When I moved from the Midwest to Washington state I remember looking at the mountains from the parking lit at work and being in awe. My coworker who grew up there was just like “I guess I’m just used to it, I forget that they’re there.”
I think people can used to a lot. Even in my current city I’ve gotten used to the skyscrapers and have to remind myself to appreciate them occasionally. For reference my hometown doesn’t have a building taller than 3 stories.
It’s something I tried to remind myself of when I was having a bad day at work at a previous job as a service tech. On the days I was driving into or around Manhattan I’d just take in the skyline and tell myself that it’s pretty amazing I get to see this.
It is kinda wild to know so many people have only ever seen it in movies and I’m just driving into it to go to some hole in the wall ice cream shop and squeeze into the tiniest space imaginable to try to fix a machine lol
Where shitpost?

Yeah, we get busses of people coming where I live to see the Mississippi river. It’s just a damn river. Although, living here and driving on the interstate seeing “whatever river” that looks like a creek in comparison is amusing.
I would point lasers at it every night!
