Although the water tastes funny, traffic can be a pain in the ass, and way too many people ride bikes, I could handle living in Norman. It seems like a pretty cool place. Plus it's a college town, so there's an ample supply of bars and college girls dressed in Lululemon.
Also, the town has cool elected officials. For example, the super hipster pictured above is Stephen Holman. He's a city councilman, the owner of Friendly Market and unfortunately has a man bun. At his shop he sells gifts, oddities and other "friendly" merchandise like glass pipes and bongs that you can use to smoke... tobacco.
Well, at least they did sell those items. The store was raided last week by the Norman Police, because you know, some dude selling things that people may use to smoke marijuana is a threat and danger to society.

Owners of the Friendly Market believe the law is on their side for selling glass pipes, but police seem to disagree.
Tuesday, Norman police raided the store at 1100 E Constitution, seizing thousands of dollars worth of merchandise and cash, an owner and an attorney representing the store said. A search affidavit had not yet been filed in the Cleveland County District Court as of Friday afternoon, and a Norman police spokeswoman declined to comment.
General Manager Stephen Holman, who is also a city councilman, was working at the store when the raid occurred.
