I've been seeing a lot of small towns recently. The amount of repetition in names is wild. There's always: Bank Street, Main Street. There's often one of: Queen Street, Landsdown Street, School Street, Carleton.

I get it. Our ancestors had goals when they named things and didn't get around. But it's incredibly samey.
