The best thing about Boston ...

... is the band named Boston -- certainly not the team named Red Sux ;-)

    Ah, the jealous ones chime in with their silly little thoughts. Boston is a treasure, always was, always will be.
    I doubt that wherever you live, couldn't hold a candle to the history, charm and the championship sports teams like the Celtics, Bruins, Patriots and Red Sox. If you felt so badly about Boston, why start the thread?

    Why all of this Boston hate?

    Not the way you write Red Sux. No need to agitate unless you want to be agitated. Drop the pantyhose BS, its too childish.
    Nobody GAS where you live, East Coast or on the moon.

    Wow, you know so many people who have moved to California, like LOTS of people. BS on that. Every day the news is full of the crap going on in your state, horrific taxes, crime, homelessness and lets just toss in the LA DA for good measure, not too mention those in power who are running the place into the ground. People are fleeing your state in DROVES AND DROVES. I'm thankful I never had to live there.
    Rear view mirror indeed!!

    For your edification about the Golden State:

    Have you thought of leaving California?

    If so, join the club.

    Recent polls by researchers at U.C. Berkeley (2019) and U.C. San Diego (2021) indicate that half of Californians have considered moving out of state.

    And millions have already moved.

    In 2020 alone, nearly 650,000 people left California for other states — about 210,000 more than moved to California from elsewhere in the U.S. This phenomenon of departures exceeding arrivals isn’t new. Every year since the 1990s, more people have exited California than have moved in from other parts of the country. Between 2007 and 2016, California lost a net 1 million residents to other states — with Texas, Arizona, and Nevada the top destinations.

    If this is true, why am I having such a hard time finding a place to move to in Hartford's western suburbs?

    Because you're doing it all wrong.
    Go buy some UConn gear to wear when you go look at a place and, voila, you're no longer some guy that was part of some State Outbound Percentage elsewhere instead you're just a guy whose finally found his home. ;)
    Name dropping Kemba Walker & Sue Bird while throwing a few curses South Carolina's way should only help. B)

    What?! Wake up, MCMLVTopps. Read the thread before you respond. Many of the posts revolve around "location".

  • charliej2356charliej2356 Posts: 316 ✭✭✭

    Still waiting to hear a retort from MCMLVTopps. Maybe he's "on the moon". ;-)

    Is I don’t live there.

    April 18th snow on the east coast. That’s the thing I hated most about Buffalo. Spring arrives, ball practice starts. 60 degree days, them bam! 8” of snow late in April.
