natetimm posted:Here in San Diego you can get affordable housing downtown but you're having multiple roomies or living in a flophouse. Our county is really big and spread out, though, and we have a semblance of public transportation so it's not too bad. North County and San Diego proper are almost like 2 totally different cities though, transportation-wise. However, it is pretty awesome to take the Coaster down from Oceanside to San Diego. Especially to a Padres game since you can byob on the way down.

Pohl posted:I've been here since November and I'm not sure I've actually met anyone from loving San Diego. This is the weirdest town. I was born and raised near Camp Pendleton, and still live here. The biggest problem I've noticed over the years about this is that a lot of people who are from other parts of the country that get out of the military stay here. However, they incessantly bitch and complain about how poo poo California is as a whole but would never go back to where they're from.

In Oceanside, they have opened up applications for the City Treasurer spot, an elected position that a dead guy won.

Baby Babbeh posted:Kind of hosed up that they're using this as an opportunity to stealth turn an elected position into an appointed one, but I can't say I'm surprised at all. Nobody hates democracy more than a city council. The most vocal council member about it is Jerry Kern, who probably still holds a grudge against the lady who ran for Treasurer as she was part of a recall election against him in 2009.
