[atlasien]

Describe the creepiest, oh-god-get-me-outta-here, "weird in a bad way" place you have ever been to.

lol, I guess I forgot to specify real world.

I've never even been to mm.com, I've heard so many bad things about it.

Some of those people are almost as bad as Kenneth Eng. Don't go there unless you have thick skin.

My parents and I went to a movie theater once where we were the only non-white people. It creeped me out through the whole thing - I couldn't really concentrate on the movie, and I was only like... 15 or 16 then. Heck, we go to the rodeo every year, and it's not even that bad.

lol a rodeo? yeeeeeha. actually there is one near me, but I dont go, it always gets ads on tv. I remember sitting in "PE" in elementary school where it wasnt possible to go outside and they showed rodeo videos. I couldnt take it at all. Same phys ed also did a country dance for the school to see.

But this movie theater was CREEPIER than the rodeo. At least in Houston, a bunch of Mexicans go to the rodeo. This movie theater was WHITE.

The Peruvian altiplano (high desert). I took a bus ride through it at night. It was terrifying to me. It's often described as resembling the surface of the moon: an environment that seems completely hostile to human life. A cold, dry, windy, boulder-strewn desert averaging 11,000 feet above sea level.

Here is an image I found on Google that does just a little to show how strange that place is.

There's actually scattered life in the altiplano: a few llamas, potatoes and incredibly tough, short people.

I preferred other areas of Peru and couldn't wait to get out of the altiplano.
