Did you just shit on pretty much the whole UK?
Would you classify your castles as "every building is bricks" or "random pile of gravel"?
I'm not British, but the vast majority of their buildings indeed seem to fall into either the "bricks" or the "gravel" category - not just castles.
All our houses are brick based. Source: own house in UK, made of bricks.
But don't understand why it's portrayed as bad here?
I think they might mean bricked up, as in the windows have been bricked over?
Or maybe they’re associated with buildings built during a certain period that are now mostly empty due to a boom and bust cycle?
Its not, its just a common thing.
Nope, the American midwest. Most of my state is like this.
Yea imagine buildings being made of bricks and not match sticks
