Heh. “Formerly” is a creative way to put that, but I hear ya. “Out in the numbers” as it were. 🤘🏽 Stay hungry, fellow pleb.

BonesOfTheMoon,

My hometown was most notable for a husband and wife serial killer pair who preyed on young girls in the area. This one will be easy to guess.

alyth,

St. Catherine’s?

BonesOfTheMoon,

Well you spelled it wrong but yes. Haha. St. Catharines.

alyth,

Oops, I’ve read that name at least a dozen times and never realized. I follow Canadian news a lot (you guys have the best radio and music in the world). Terribly sad case, and it feels like justice wasn’t served.

BonesOfTheMoon,

That evil witch got off so lightly. I attended one of the victim’s funerals and it was so very hideous. Glad you like our artists!

Bingo.

pocopene,

In the city where I live there are two train stations, next to each other, and with different track gauges.

Motorheadbanger,

Eastern Europe somewhere?

epygots,

Buenos Aires?

MadBob,

I’d guess somewhere near the Spanish-French border, because I happen to know that Spain uses a different gauge to the rest of Europe.

pocopene,

It’s in Spain. Because for some reason (probably a war?) in some regions we have the standard gauge as well as the “narrow” one.

MadBob,

Bilbao? Just guessing from looking at the map to be honest, ha.

pocopene,

Very close :)

Just to get an idea what I mean when I say the stations are close to each other https://imgur.com/a/hMPVjrC

MadBob,

Close to Bilbao too? So in Basque Country?

NotAtWork,

We had a tea party during the revolutionary war, no not that tea party.

nickwitha_k,

My hometown was a well-known regional port and was the home of a “medical” serial killer (both in the early 20th century) who was responsible for over 15 deaths over 4 years.

Our first ever ruler from when we became an independent nation was known to carry pieces of roasted chicken in his suit pockets to sneak in snacks during the day.

CoffeeJunkie,

He was a bit of

A character

History remembers him as a buffoon. History is wrong. He was a sly old fox and his bumbling antics were masking quite the sharp mind.

We’ve got one of the oldest, largest, and most used transit systems in the world.

We had the most powerful earthquake ever recorded.

AA5B,

A century ago, we had a disaster caused by a tsunami of molasses 25 ft high, going 35 mph

LordPassionFruit,

Boston

AA5B,

I don’t know if you’re from here or I gave too many hints, making it too easy to search, but YES

LordPassionFruit,

When I was a kid (primary school, ~2010), I watched a History Channel show about it with my little brother.

Back then, we just thought the “Boston Molassacre” was a funny name for a tragedy, so it’s stuck in my head.

intensely_human,

We’ve decriminalized magic mushrooms.

stiephel,

Portugal?

ben_dover,

Netherlands?

MadBob,

There’s a catholic cathedral that was designed by a protestant and a protestant cathedral that was designed by a catholic.

relevants,

The city I’m from has more bridges than Venice and Amsterdam combined.
