Bad thing about the shire is, in the books particularly, I get the feeling that the Hobbits are super judgy and talk shit about each other constantly behind their backs.
Which, given that the shire is so small and insular, checks out. What else are they talking about after they finish up about the weather or wondering when Gandalf will show up with fireworks again.
There's definitely a hobbit HOA and they definitely suck.
So, a small town?
I moved back to the farm and my fucking god, everyone knows what everyone else is doing to the finest detail. It's a little creepy. Oh, and anyone without a Facebook account has to be hiding something.
