I can walk to bars and buy $3 cans of shit beer. You, on the other hand, have to drive and thereby fuck up the world.
Why my life in 1 bedroom NWDC apt is more meaningful th
you can get shot and mugged while walking to those bars to drink your shitty beer, while i can just read about it happening.
living in a crappy plywood townehome complex surrounded by asphalt is a "meaningful" existence.
Sounds like you have it rough. i will shed a tear for you.

it's half the dc location, and half the fact that i don't sit in an suv for 2 hours a day singing along to the latest velvet revolver song and wondering where i can get one of those awesome magnetic ribbons.
btw. i seem to have somehow acquired several dozen extra magnetic "support our troops" ribbons (made in taiwan). if you want one, you'd better have an interesting use for it.

Screw YOU! I got a three car garage PLUS there's a Best Buy and TGIF like a mile from my house. The 'burbs rock.
From my 4 BR suburban single family home, I can sit nude on on my private deck and enjoy all of the beautiful trees and birds in my back yard. I can also walk to Giant or Whole Foods, where I buy food and cook it better than 90% of the restuarants in DC. Or I can ride my bike to the train station where the train brings me non-stop to my place of work in 35 minutes. I can also run or bike on the 3.7 mile trail or the off-road trails in a park less than a mile from my home. All of that for a lower cost than buying a condo in an "upcoming" part of the city.
Not every suburbanite lives Chimbley's lame little suburban fantasy. :D

how the hell has this turned into a real thread about this topic again, jesus christ (died today or something)
Originally posted by Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer:i live in DC. from the thread you started, i thought this was YOUR existence. it seems like you just wanted to put down people that live in DC and explain to everyone how great your life in the suburbs is. i'm not quite sure why though…

'cause he needs reassurance about how great his life in the suburbs is. Else he forgets.
This has got to be one of the most lame debates ever. Can't we all just agree that some people like the city and some like the 'burbs? For those trying to be funny, its just not creative.
Okay.
Or you could just spend the night at your friend's house and not fuck up the whole world….while you on one hand pay alot more for your tiny apartment than I pay for my huge one.
or you could realize that we've been rehashing this debate on this board for years, that certain people who shall not be named keep bringing it up again (note– not me!) and that the people involved in the debate feel very passionately about the issue and none of us are going to change our minds.
basically, we're being tongue in cheek by now.

the coolest thing is when the lives of suburban and urban people creatively mesh, like the time this girl called me up and invited herself over to my apartment at 2am, after a night of clubbing because she didn't want to drive all the way back to Woodbridge. I am staunchly against drunk driving so of course I let her come over. ;)
