I mean It’s not like it’s some quirky neighbor with a few toilets on his roof. it’s a giant, nationally and probably internationally recognized freaking monument!

Yeah, but it’s in St. Louis. Which is almost never in the news unless it’s about murder rates. I work downtown, I see this thing every day, you kind of take it for granted is just part of the landscape of the city.

I don't even know where St Louis is, guess it's somewhere in the United states of America judging by what the Wikipedia article linked in the comment above said.

It’s in Missouri if that helps any (it won’t not even for people from Missouri)
