gollark: *dislikes ☭*
gollark: Yes, I've heard distances are much more significant there but never actually experienced it.
gollark: 8 miles of walking is still... an hour or so, no?
gollark: But having to travel half an hour to get to the city where anything interesting happens is annoying.
gollark: The UK apparently has anomalously high population density so [RURAL AREA REDACTED] isn't very isolated compared to US rural areas, given that you can feasibly drive across England in 10 hours or so.
