Nah the city itself is nice and there are tons of old buildings you wouldn't want to lose. Basically what needs to happen is that we kill and eat all the rich.

Kitchner posted:Crazy house and rent prices in London means anyone who's not a Saudi Arabian Prince, Russian Oligarch, or some sort of banker has to live on the outskirts of the city, but all the offices are in the centre, so each morning I do over an hour on this:  Sorry about your lovely crowded trains. I'm glad I don't work in London or New York and that my trains only get that crowded on special occasions. Like when it's cold...like today. Ugh, I don't want to go outside now.

To be fair one of the advantages of going everywhere on the tube is you go from your warm house, to the tube station, on a warm tube, to wherever you're going. You never really expose yourself to the weather that much.

RFC2324 posted:Whats with this antisemitism?!? Once I was waiting in line for the bus from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv. An American was talking to the driver, turns out it wasn't the right bus or something. While he was standing there talking, other travelers squeezed by him, paid the driver/stamped their card and went to their seats. He was utterly livid that someone would just squeeze by him like that rather than waiting for him to finish finding out whatever it was he was finding out. I much prefer even the most crowded and "rude" American cities, myself.

Not just that but they're proud of it. I don't know what it is about New York and PA but there's a certain level of deliberate cultural obnoxiousness. ... To be honest I kind of like it. You know exactly where you stand with people from this part of the world.

On the other hand, I can go down to the lake right this minute and hang out in shorts and sandals right this minute if I want to, so it kinda balances out. (No, it doesn't, I want the gently caress out of this part of the country so badly)

You're one of those filthy, Westerner PA monsters, aren't you? drat right. I came straight out of the woods of NW PA. "Jagger bush" is a term for a thorn bush. It's reeeaaaaally specific to Pittsburgh and the area north of it. Where all the Polish people settled, really. We have all sorts of fascinating words in these parts. Actually my favorite thing in college was out of state people coming to the state college I went to and absolutely, completely failing to understand anything I said a lot of the time. There are Steeler's fans all over these parts and the only thing worse than being a fan of anybody but a Pittsburgh team is not liking sports at all. Granted here it's more of a Steelers fans vs. Browns fans for whatever reason. I quit watching basically all of them in the 90's when everybody went on strike and everybody from the owners on down was whining about not getting enough money. I was just like "love of the game my rear end." Absurd Alhazred posted:How many goons ARE there up here?! Well everything this side of the Appalachians is pretty densely populated over all so probably a lot of them?
