Not especially. I have a stare-at-the-trainwreck type fascination when it comes posters who rage against School X or School Y (see "UIUC Sucks" thread and user Rob Johnson). You clearly have something against Berkeley. Hence my interest. Never quite understood my fascination with these threads, but it usually helps me learn something about a school I normally wouldn't hear.


So you thought I was a neurotic East Coaster who never set foot in the state of California? I guess I am a die-hard "suburban kid," as bilbo the hobo humper likes to put it.


Seeing "grossly humid" and "California" in the same sentence tends to set off alarm bells. Obviously I ignored the context on that one, but still....

Not sure how having a suburbia fetish is incompatible with living California, but whatever. You and Bilbo can sort that out.

S/he probably hasn't even visited CA, let alone SE.


he/she said he/she lived in the bay area, but it doesn't sound like the bay area i'm familiar with.

jcl2: seriously it's not uncomfortably humid. When I think of the North Coast, spent a lot of time in the summer there when I was a kid, humidity is not what comes to mind.


Anyone who lived in the Bay Area AND believes its grossly humid, is either a liar or a cactus.


It is not uncomfortably humid because it is also cold, but fog requires 100% humidity. And I wasn't talking about the Bay Area, except for San Francisco, I was talking about the actual coast. As I said, aside from the coast, meaning the ocean coast, north of Monterey, most of the state of California is either dry or very dry.

Why do you make me do this?

LA is the best city in the fucking world.

Our architecture is far better than anything you've got, and our subway is more beautiful and less expensive than yours.

Just because you don't know anything about it doesn't mean LA doesn't have a rich history.

snobbery != culture

LA is the best fucking city in the entire fucking world.

I've also lived in SD twice in my life, and East Lansing is actually a great city for what it is...


ps-it was 3.5 years! :mrgreen:

I really didn't read most of this carefully, but I have to say, after a decade of living in NYC, working in the Bronx, living in Washington Heights, Harlem and Bushwick, that after one day of walking the streets in Oakland I was shocked at how aggressive and generally mean they were compared to NYC. Generally, though, the dispossessed are more aggressive on the West coast than the East.

I know 4 out of 6 offhand, but it really doesn't matter, because your perspective and my perspective on CA have nothing to do with the length of time either of us have been here. They come from the difference of our perspectives. As discussed a long time ago under some other anti-ca/berk trolling it was made clear that you're from the 'burbs without much experience living in cities (or around the country, for that matter) and that you consider Berkeley to be "scary" or "ghetto." You didn't like your UG experience in Berk, probably because you didn't adapt well to no longer living in a bubble. I can understand that, it's a worldview, whatever. The point is, I don't think it's the one that gives the best perspective on the Bay Area (or, really, anywhere). I mean, I guess if we're arguing over gated communities, that's fine, but otherwise, it's sort of laughable. This is why you retreat into generalizations "I'd be willing to be they'd get no-offered this summer" when faced with actual facts. I am sure, based on my time in the bay, I could construct 6 questions that would give you a hard time, but honestly, I could give a fuck about local high schools or how Asian San Jose is and I don't think either of those facts really have anything to do with living in SF, Berkeley or Oakland.

Hate New York City
and it's hipster cheek
with all the people dressed like circus freaks

Let's leave Georgetown to the K-Street crowd
that town's a little bit too fux0red
for you and me, bad girl......

Rolling down
Imperial Highway
Hot skinny model at my side
Santa Ana winds blowing hot from the north
We was born to ride.

Look at the mountains,
Look those trees,
Look at those 07 Biglaw hires
They're down on their knees.

Look at these women
still ain't nothin' like em nowhere.

From South Bay
to the Valley
From the West Side
to the East Side
Everybody's fairly happy
'Cause traffic's light today.

Goddamn it! I still love LA.

(Slightly updated for 2009/10)

In all seriousness, from what I'm hearing from people out in the market things are starting to unfreeze a little.
