Pleasantville Pre-blast 2/1/19 – CI Q
I wanted to call the AO in Norton Commons, “The Village of the Damned”, but we settled on Pleasantville. I guess because nothing inspires you to work harder and push yourself to your limits when things are tough than something that’s pleasant. Maybe we’re using it ironically? I doubt it since no one really knowsContinueContinue reading “Pleasantville Pre-blast 2/1/19 – CI Q”
