Drive-thru haircuts sounds pretty weird imo.

Jokes on you: the city I moved away from in the US added a parking garage to the historic register. If you weren't so focused on waiting in a line of cars for the drive thru, you could be enjoying 10 stories of historically crumbling concrete!

On my errands I was subjected to walking past atone churches from the pre 1800's, going through a park, and going through a market hall from 1900. It was horrible. I didn't even get to wait at any traffic lights for a Micro Vacation during my travels. Sad. Just sad.

In Europe, 18th Century churches are new.

Yeah, though I'm also in Berlin so many were fully or partially rebuilt after the various wars. They're old and new now. Still gorgeous. I love me a tall stone building!

Oh. Yeah, Berlin is definitely an exception...
