I dunno I'm near a bunch of good places to eat and I can take the metro to work everyday. Utilities are cheaper than the northeast and rent is about the same, otherwise it's new england with more humidity. Sorry you're raging against whatever it is.

High unemployment, broken down infrastructure, and high crime rates do have a certain charm to them.

Did fuel prices drop overnight or something? Last time I paid attention, I think it was about $3.40 or so for 93 octane, but sure as poo poo, I paid $2.77 a few days ago.

I don't really miss having a car now. I fill up the motorcycle maybe once a month if I don't go exploring the Korean countryside and it's like for a full tank. Pretty great.

That's because outside of Arlington, no county in NOVA believes in urban planning and thus has devolved into a suburban sprawl hellscape occupied mostly by teaparty republicans that unironically work either for the federal government or federal contractors.

That's great but it's still been a thing for at least half a century, probably longer. One of my vehicles has a high enough CR I have to buy it. The other gets 87 like it should.

We trade coon skins not opossum (Plebe.) skins, and they're two scheckels to a coon skin, $14.88 per scheckel. All foreign exchanges take place in coon skins or scheckels only. We don't devalue the dollar by pegging to more volatile bellwethers. Compute from there, smarmy upside down land kiwi. (_!_) (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

The real scam is branded gasoline. Chevron has the exact same stuff as whatever corner gas station. Plus the octane is listed on the pump when you select it. If you are so dumb as to pick premium just because you think there's more magic in it there's a good chance you would just waste that money on magic beans instead.
