My 'town' is a rural cul-de-sac of about 25 houses, so I'd say at my place. And by 'protest' I mean we'd eat, drink, and relish not being online for a bit.
I have kids. I don't know why hating each other would be a given when raising them. Not my experience with my own kids or other families I know, apart from the usual angsty teen period kind of stuff.
I tap out for a few days when these weird fixations happen. See you next week.
