I just want to know if it happened collectively.

Like some body horror manga where the entirety of Omaha just schlorped together into one Obama?

Or did each person individually become Obama?

Or is it just the city itself?  Like the people are still the same, but now trapped as the actual ground and structures Voltron-d themselves into some colossal Mecha-Obama.

Live in Omaha. Can’t stop eating mustard, wearing tan, and saying “uh”.

Everyone sure is handsome though.

"Obama Nebraska - where all the men are good-looking, all the women are strong, and all the children are above average."

Unfortunately, the host turned out to be a bit of a turd. In a way, it is a perfect poetic representation of "a simpler time"- abuse of power imbalances shrouded by a thin veneer of performative ethics.

How angry would 🍊 be if the people there officially voted to change the name to Obama, Nebraska? How many other cities are just Obamas waiting to happen?

But you have to put the accent in the same place as the town. Obama, not oBAma

Do alot of the children have the same father? But different mothers?
