    I have an hypothesis on “small town hot”, with no basis but my observations.

    People tend to be hotter and fitter in small towns because the competition for a mate is so stiff. Also, the attractiveness is out of scale with the lower incomes. Also, there seems to be less of a middle ground. You’re either hot or a fat slob.

      I assumed it meant the opposite: ‘hot relative to the limited choices in the local dating pool but average if compared to like models etc’

    What small town is this from? … asking for a friend … who also has all their teeth.

      No clue, but it very easily could have come from the one I grew up in.

      The_Picard_Maneuver is MIA, so I dove into my ~2014 era meme folder and am posting some golden oldies

        … that’s kinda concerning … and if they are in the US, disappearing people is starting to become the norm in that country. Hopefully everything is OK. Thanks for the info.
