Is this place like a little micro-state hidden inside of Missouri?
What's the deal with this place?
Basic research reveals it was purchased by a rich rancher a long time ago, and he wanted to be part of Missouri territory instead of Arkansas.

Water people? Is that the Mississippi River equivalent of rednecks?

Fuck you nigger, stay to the north.

They speak like boomhauer and try to get absurd discounts on everything. A Water Person becomes a Water Person because the Missery water is tainted. DO NOT DRINK IT.

He made the correct choice.

Rather live in Missery than Oklahomo. I promise you its better over there than in this absolute garbage shithole.

It seems like the state government is rather hands-off with its areas for good and bad. Hannibal is a wild place.

my parents grew up down there. my dad went to school with sheryl crow in kennett. it was mostly hog and watermelon farms down there until corpos came in in the 80s and 90s and ran it all down to nothing. all that's left down there is shit shack shanty towns.

the bootheel wants to be part of the ozarks but isn't hick enough. bookrel is a good pack of stories from the area.

Many such cases, sad.

you have no clue. I grew up in West Plains during the 80s and 90s. perfect time. single mothers were able to afford mortgages with half their paychecks leftover as school secretaries, lunch ladies, hell, my best friend's mom worked down the street at a plumbing shop taking calls, doing bills, whatever, and she was able to raise 2 kids without welfare.

now, everyone is a gacked out tweaker. my cousin was cheer squad captain, valedictorian, prom queen, and had a full ride scholarship to Mizzou in a young government leaders program. her hillnigger husband got her into meth, she overdosed, and no surprise died. my family threatened to report me to the police when I started putting together a gang to lynch him from a tree in the woods. we used to hunt and scalp mormons for fucks sake and now they'll just bend over and let tweakers fuck them up the ass, kill their daughter, and have zero consequences.

hillniggers. all of them. it was a good place. not anymore.

>>536667707
That's a real shame. I know it doesn't sound like a mercy, but death, I think, is preferable to being a meth head. It really does bring out the worst in people.

>death, I think, is preferable to being a meth head
yup. some of the students at Rolla and Springfield studying wildlife ecology got involved with some water sampling projects. it turns out that there is enough meth metabolites being pissed into the water, in addition to enough byproduct effluent from production, ending up in the lakes, rivers, and streams to cause noticable effects to fish.

the older brother of another pal was involved in the dialup days of drug dealing. he was the one who got Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee, and a few other states setup in the k2, spice, and bath salts game. he started importing most of it into a distribution operation down in Moody, south of West Plains. when they took him down and his piece of shit buddies, it knocked out the supply by 80% for 2 years. he was selling drugs to children and eventually shot himself.

what interests you about the bootheel? thinking of moving there?

>>536668772
Oh, that just doubles the guy who was warning about the water people. Don't drink the water, got it!
I like seeing interesting places that people don't think about.

what are your thoughts about the lines cut in the forests on the various patagonian islands? I haven't found anything about colonization projects, infrastructure, whatever. all of it is overgrown, as if the ground itself is preventing the growth of the dense woody jungle. I'll go look for geophotos.

honestly, there isn't much else to the ozarks though. it is, on balance compared to the rest of america, still one of the best places to lives. I would move there from StL right now if I could.

>>536668772
Given what I'm hearing from the thread, though, this might be one of those places I just kinda check out quickly and pass through. I think I'd rather go to the hot springs in Arkansas with the wife.
>>
>>536669800
Haven't heard of it. A lot of times I find out about places as I approach them. There's a lot of interesting things off in the cut that you don't realize until you're local.

>>536669817
>hot springs in Arkansas with the wife
excellent choice. make sure to do cave tours. I would also recommend vidrel

When I was a kid my grandparents lived in Cape Girardeau. Over summer vacation we'd go down to Chawlston and buy some watermelons from these guys who drove around in an old schoolbus with crates full of melons. This would have been the late 80s-early 90s.

>guys who drove around in an old schoolbus with crates full of melons
my parents families did that in the 70s for a while when you could actually make a living and pay the bills and mortgage for a family with 2 or 3 acres of garden land which you actively manage. now you try and do that and you will never turn a profit, ever.

my grandparents had farms down there for 6 generations. mostly hogs, melons, stuff that grows well in the sand. I'm sure you know all the same. back before the agricultural thugs came through and offshored all the fruit markets, that whole area had the capability of providing all the fruit for the nation. the missouri rhineland up near StL has near perfect growing conditions for all sorts of fruit crops we get from shitskins overseas in planations.

my parents used to tell me about driving around and the social life of the time. lots of drive in restaurants, sonic style, and socializing with anyone for any reason. all that is gone now.

I wonder if these have anything to do with the Stargates: pentagons that literally clear the land and have lines that connect them. If you go through any angle or through the center point of any line of those pentagons, they'll connect to others. The one in the United States is speculated to be an artificial one, but it connects to the Nazca ley lines and groom lake(area 51, roughly pentagon in shape), for example. The one that really convinced me on this was looking at Google Earth. In the Yucatan Peninsula, there was just this perfectly clear pentagon in the middle of the rain forest.

>speculations
cool ideas. I don't discount any of those, but I also cannot find anything there which would've ever been anything like a settlement or work area. I'm looking more now. there are lots of fractures in the underlying rock which are not on the same angle and path of what I am describing. I found a few near inlets and lagoons, so it led me to believe they were some sort of animal paths, but they are too linear and angular, often times taking smart paths around ridges and such.

for a while I thought they were related to the nazca lines, but couldn't find any info. there are also some parts of this in south central russia, giant tracts of land with a reglular trapezoid grid pattern. the problem is, the soviets claim doing it as a project with the gulags to lay out grid patterns for grand design cities for 5 year plans and all that... except when you calculate the time, fuel, earth moved (which isn't there anymore) over vast distances just to clear brush, it just doesn't add up...

Water people own this board, give me a discount on my dip, vape and Coors Light, or be prepared to face the consequences.
