this one was very easy but it took a long time to figure out lol it was good but not great
Thanks. I was just looking for something to be accepted!lol. But, even though it's easy I think it's funny because it makes you do more than needed work which makes you smack your head in a way. I also think the name of the city or whatever I thought of is a bit amusing . . .But thanks! Me first teaser went well!
