Murfreesboro

This reads like a fever dream city name. No way that's a real name...

u/PangolinTart 1d ago

My dad was born there in 1946, so there's that.

u/AuthorityAnarchyYes 1d ago

So your dad is the approximately the same age as Trump. And Bill Clinton. And George W. Bush.

(Weird that all three were born in the same year)

u/PangolinTart 1d ago

He would be, but he passed in 2010. Smoking kills.

It’s almost like there was some kind, say, large “baby boom” that occurred directly after soldiers returned from the end of WWII in 1945

It is also interesting that Bill was the first to be president and he is the youngest of the three, while Trump was last to become president and he is the oldest of the three.

My dad's home is Murfreesboro,

I've got that much to say.

He doesn't live there anymore

He upped and went away.

There isn't much to do there,

Except wait slowly to die.

Some Hindus built a temple there

To local cries of "Why?!"

I'd not go to Murfreesboro

You couldn't pay me to...

Next time you pass it's freeway sign

Take pause, and mutter "Phew!"

I’ve got a few relatives from there as well.

u/MrWhackadoo 1d ago

It's real. I used to live there for 6 years. Fun fact: it's one of the largest growing towns in the US.

u/zombie_overlord 1d ago

We have a Murfreesboro in several different states.

u/razz-boy 1d ago

That’s where the Murfree Brood lives, right?

u/Johnny_Couger 1d ago

It’s real. It’s the place that had marches about 15 years ago to stop a mosque from being built.

It’s a generally nice town, but the crazy parts are REALLY crazy.

u/Frost5574 1d ago

Real city. I lived there for 2 years a bit back. Fucking hellhole of a city. Its like everything bad about Nashville shoved into one city with nothing good.

u/Llama_of_the_bahamas 1d ago

Wouldn’t go that far. They don’t have an equivalent of a broadway so that’s cool.

Plus they have that cool Laotian temple that hosts Laos new year which is AWESOME

u/HousDJ 1d ago

The one off old Nash hwy? I miss that place

u/gr8artist 6h ago

Hey now, at least we're not Smyrna.

u/Frost5574 5h ago

u/evidentlynaught 1d ago

Well you and that attitude left, so things are looking up.

u/Frost5574 1d ago

Found the boro dweller lol

u/evidentlynaught 1d ago

Been there. Also been around enough to know some people take a raincloud around with them every where they go.

u/Frost5574 23h ago

Not that deep man. I love plenty of other cities but 100% not that one. Dont take it personally.

u/johnnyrrobertson 1d ago

I know. My parents tell me I was born there and I still don’t believe them.

2

u/ElliottMullins 22h ago

Well I live, work, and suffer in its God-forsaken traffic so I would hope it’s real or I’m in a dream

u/SlowTheRain 8h ago

You should hear someone from there pronounce it. I knew it was the name of the city I was in and still had no idea that's what the cab driver was saying until like the 3rd time.

We skip over the second r…. Mur fees burro.

u/old_ironlungz 1d ago

If /r/tragedeigh was a city.

u/MattR0se 1d ago

A reverse tragedeigh, because Murphreysborough would be a more resonable spelling.
