least favorite city

[apexede30]

My local pick, Denton, North Carolina. My god. Oh and certain parts of atlanta, near Emory, bother me, although I was only there for a week.

Jakarta Indonesia

Very sad, poverty on a scale I had never seen before. Sau Paulo Brazil comes in at second on my list. Nowhere I have been in the U.S. can compare to these places. We have it pretty damn good here compared to a lot of the world's population.

explain yourself dumbass. is this supposed to mean im racist?

Blunt as in honest. Meaning that what he typed was said in a blunt/forward manner.

Thanks for the dumbass line though. Much appreciated.

Houston. Ex-girlfriend was from there, August in Houston is enough to make you want to commit suicide.

It's really cool when you get off the plane at the airport on the south side of town and as your driving into downtown, you can't even see the tops of the buildings through the smog.

Yeah - I live on the south side of town and that just isn't true. On a cloudless day I can see downtown, the med center, the galleria area - and on a really clear day I can see my office 25 miles away.

Sorry, yes you can "see" them, but they are hazy from the Ozone.

Sorry for not being more clear.

my short list

1 - Philadelphia sucks a big one - the people are unfriendly bastards and the city looks like shit.

2 - New Orleans - New Orleans has always sucked. I remember being a kid there and it looked like the whole place was about to fall apart, that and drunk hoboes everywhere. People knew this city was built in a stupid location and in deep shit for years and did nothing.

3 - Detroit - everybody bitches about how shitty Detriot is but its true. Its like a damn post apocalyptic movie, and you better get your ass inside before the subhuman mutant mobs come out and eat your spleen.

International

1 - Padua Italy - I am Italian and this is where my family is from but I hate this place. It looks like an industrial ruin, the people act like jerks, and they will try to steal/scam everything they can from you. Do not go here if you dont speak italian, you might as well paint a big sign over your head that says "steal from me I'm a dumbass".

2 - East End London - Dont know if this is allowed but this is just the east end. The rest of London is awesome but this place looks like the great depression, all you need is bread lines.

When did you come here? I can see a little smog now and again but nothing like what you are talking about.

Likewise. ITs the internet do as you wish.

He must be thinking of LA when we haven't had any Santa Anas in a minute. :giggle:

[der affe]

I now hate phoenix, simply because no one can fucking drive in this god damn city.

you are in central or west phoenix aren't you?
i hate my daily commute to central phx also!!!
east side/scottsdale FTW!

GARY, INDIANA!!!! what a shit hole!!
i went to visit my freind in Valpo, IN (not so great either) he said " you want to see a shit hole?"
"sure should we bring guns?"
"yes, we are bringing guns!"

it was a shit hole alright!

Stockton, CA
Richmond, CA

this would come from a Marin-ite. there are much much much worse places in the USA let alone CA.

[Restoman]

I must live in a pretty bad place. I've been to Detroit and a few other places North where some Buick plant shut down. New Orleans is great. I've never felt uncomfortable in N.O.
I do think I would dislike most of California, feisty Mexicans are not my thing.

[PiercedE30]

Shreveport has it places, just like Baton Rouge.

I think the last time I was there was August of '04.
