Boston is outwardly grumpy as hell.
But you need to watch the video of tbe Boston bombing, 3 seconds after the explosions it was like doctors were climbing out of windows and just swarming to take care of people.
That's how it is, grumbly till you need something, then the best people in the world.
Those aren't words one usually expects to read.
I'd moved away a few months earlier, the whole thing was like a stab in the heart, kid was found in a boat down the road from where I lived.
But the way the town united was incredible, never seen anything like it, made me remember why I loved it so much.
Bombs barely stopped echoing, every hand was helping someone, nobody was even confused they just jumped into action like it was a drill they'd practiced for 100 times.
That's New England in general. Don't talk to me, asshole you need a hand?
