RECAP:

5. Thomaston

4. Ansonia

3. Putnam

2. Winchester

1. Plainfield

The language in the video is hilariously descriptive. That has got to burn if you are on the town council of one of these cities and you see your town described as "lacking energy and progress." Or "overwhelmingly dull with most of the town shutting down early." OOOOH, you just got wrecked small town C-T!

If you live in one of those places and are offended let me offer you some consolation. Boring is good. Excitement is for the birds, and 20-year-olds. Frankly I'm jealous of Plainfield. I could use a decade, maybe two of unreasonable monotony.
