My hometown is famous for being named for its suprising number of Mechanics, for birthing Juliard dropout and Pop C-lister Jason Mraz, and for being the site of the infamous Tractor Supply Store Emo Kid Ax Assault of '08. Oh, and several incredibly bloody Civil War battles.

Mechanicsville VA, that backwards little town with bad roads and militant traffic cops where you stop for gas on your roadtrip to Washington DC.


...But seriously, my hometown celebrates easter with the Good Friday Mudbog, and every year at Christmas, Santa makes his rounds on a firetruck through the suburbs. Okay, the latter is pretty effing awesome.
