    This year, Spotify rolled out a feature called "Sound Towns" which tells you what city aligns most with your music taste.

    It seems like three cities are the most popular.

    The first place is Cambridge, Massachusetts.

    Spotify Wrapped telling me my music taste belongs in Cambridge felt more like an insult tbh pic.twitter.com/wHQs2ca6B3

    This seems to be like District 1 for gay people.

    And last but not least, the one I've been seeing the most is Burlington, Vermont.

    As someone not in the Big Three, I have to say...it feels lonely in Provo!!

    And this person felt banished in Madison.

    thought for sure i’d get berkeley, cambridge or vermont like all the cool people but no, spotify banished me to the midwest for enjoying fall out boy, gecs and boygenius. pic.twitter.com/tpH0J4Lad0

    My entire timeline is full of jokes about Cambridge, Berkeley, and Burlington, so because I think they're pretty funny, here are some of my favorites...

    spotify is trying to make a gay commune in berkeley, a lesbian commune in burlington, and a bisexual commune in cambridge

    So what do we think distinguishes Cambridge vs Berkeley vs Burlington? What are they trying to tell us?
