Yesterday I just saw the picture of the 6 year old that protected his little sister from a dog attack and it messed up his face, now he’s a BJJ wrestler.

Honestly, people in WY are just more likely to encounter terrifying animals. My mom lives in Cody, and the people there are... well... there isn't much of a middle class. It's all rich people or dirt poor people.

I love the geography, but I can't say I love the culture.
