Is sarcasm truly dead? Anyone who thinks I actually hate Asheville didn't actually watch the video

[@sarcasticmaniac628]

And then people started living in tents, and taking dumps everywhere. The end...

Born and raised in Asheville, way to many moving here now causing lots of congestion and housing shortages and the job market is low, expensive to live here.

I could enjoy this video if I wasn't so genuinely concerned that this dude was about to have a heart/asthma attack. Focus on breathing, bro.

[@benchpresser356]

Keep in mind these people aren't from here; 30 years ago Asheville was still a conservative place until people started moving in.

It is basically the Portland of the south. I hate living here

Asheville is weird.....I’ll never go back

[@sunrays8324]

Stephen King wrote a book about this place! NEEDFUL THINGS....

Love the music on the street. However, if you think Asheville was a cesspool in 2015, you should see it now!!!

[@mtadams2009]

Just reading the comments is pretty disturbing. Stay in your little cocoons were everyone is just like you and all will be fine. Some find that boring.

[@EliasVoorhees]

You can’t give away a stick of deodorant in Asheville.

At least the boy and girl playing old time mountain music was pretty good.I like that stuff and they were pretty good at it.

Are you kidding ? My wife and I love visiting Asheville! We love the arts and music screen of it all. The craft breweries are so enjoyable . Great city , great outdoors and great vibes . This is what I take away each time when visiting .

The world is a cesspool of sin

[@phungyi4947]

Needs more cowbell.

I love Asheville! If you really want to see a cesspool of sin, take a trip to my boyhood city, Washington, DC. Asheville is a kindergartner’s birthday party compared to that.

Every town has its crazies, but Asheville is a great town!! I should know, I was born 20 miles down the road!!

[@roninreturns]

Having lived in Asheville, twice, I can compare the years from the 90's up through the following decade, and where it seems to stand today. I've stayed in touch with friends who were native born in the region, many of whom have lamented the town they knew back in the 70's and 80's, and even 90's to some degree. Overall, Asheville is a nice place to visit, but has become a victim of its own 'success', if you call it that.

Wow, good job! I got here 15 years ago and forgot to leave. Truly an oasis of sanity.

Ashville looks and sounds vibrant. Thanks for the tour😊
