I moved to Dallas not an honest soul here Might be a great place to replace Yucca Flats

atlanta... its full of peoeple that are concerned with appearance and status. everyone is driving and dressing like millionaires but homes are in foreclosure and peoples credit is shot.

Live in New Jersey, high property taxes..

Overall a good place, but I wish it was a little more progressive

Also wish I could find a few more liberals here, everyone seems to be a conservative Republican

Would also be nice to find more gay people here too LOL

I moved to South Florida for a job or otherwise would have never chosen this area. While the ocean is beautiful and the weather is amazing (in the winter), the people are worse than anywhere I've ever lived. I grew up in Ohio, lived in Orlando, Martha's Vineyard, New York City and Portland, Oregon. Never have I experienced such shallow, conniving, untrustworthy and just mean people than I have here. It's really disheartening. Otherwise, I like it.

we don't live there, but right now really hate South Dakota.

... just ask YngHungSFSD, better yet, go look at his topic about being terminated for being in a gay bar.

The rents. For what I pay for a 2 bedroom apartment could get you a mansion in many other cities. But, of course, that would mean I'd live in a grand but most likely not as interesting place...

The State One lives in is Victoria. Multiculturalism, has help the Suburbs of Melbourne too be one of the best Cities in the world to eat out in, as well it is one of the worlds most livable cities too.

Multiculturalism, is also becoming it's down fall, as there are times One feels like one is in a foreign country, because as an Aussie, One feels the minority.

Not only That, but Fl has Humidity, bad housing market, old people, and snow birds

Move down here to Fort Lauderdale. Actually, move in next door to me. I'd love to have you replace my insane neighbor.

Where are these conniving people? All I've met are really nice people since I moved here. Of course, some of them are a little shady, but hey, that's South Florida.

1. Traffic (sometimes)
2. The beach is dirty (in long beach)

San Francisco....

It's actually dirtier than you think! The homelessness and the stench of urine! Oh yeah, the weather!! It's cold here during the "summer"!!!

TX, USA

Chain store/chain restaurant strip malls.

Bible thumpers.

Massive factory-agriculture operations.

Wal-Mart and the resulting death of small Texas towns.

Cornyn and Hutchison (Senators still living in 2003).

Big SUVs (still).

The Dallas Cowboys (AKA rehab for wayward footballers).

Drivers. Seriously, they'll pull any life-threatening move just to save 30 seconds and continue their phone conversation. They drift about as if their lane was 100' wide too.

Maybe they're all up here in Palm Beach County? Or, maybe I just have really bad luck meeting people?

Its pretty calm and quiet here.
There is nothing to do in south carolina lol

Philadelphia:

I don't know how to describe it, but there's just something "not right" with this place - I can't put my finger on it.


Cue X-files theme

Lynchburg, Va.

I live in what I consider to be the most homophobic state there is...and I live in the town where Jerry Falwells legacy lives on...does that even begin to give you an idea of what life is like here?

ugh!!!!

well there's certainly that element here of guys who have never really lived "out in the world" but yet think they know more than they really do. as a result they tend to have a lot of pissy attitude to try to compensate for that...it's really unattractive. The kind of guys that are like in their late 30's or 40's who have lived here their whole life, never gone out in the world, still struggling with their identity, and usually trying to "hook up" behind their "boyfriend's" back with someone for unprotected/bare sex, while professing not to be that way.
I guess there is a certain element of small minded, not-so-nice attitude here.

But that element could be found anywhere I guess (it's just more apparent here) ...so I suppose it's not that bad really.

That we're run by a group of knuckle dragging bible thumping mugwhumps in Tallahassee who cannot legislate themselves out of a box....

Ditto. Couldn't have said it better myself, and I love to hear myself talk.

I live in just outside of Detroit, Michigan... What's not to hate?

Slowdive saidLive in New Jersey, high property taxes..

i totally agree... our corrupt elected officials don't really help our situation either.

a town in western morris county, nj (not h'town like it says but my town didn't show up so this was the closest one) areawise we are bigger then manhattan but we only have 3 traffic lights, no supermarkets and nothing to to other then look at farms we have to drive 10 or 15 or 30 min to do anything fun.

Toronto has many good points, but it could have been a lot better with some intelligent government. There is not enough transit, the waterfront has been spoiled by ugly condos (unlike Chicago or Montreal) and the city government has taken on a large amount of debt because it refuses to downsize the # of workers despite all indications it is overstaffed.

Winter it Cold

Buffalo: our mayor. Foreigners confusing us for Fargo.

NJ - inequitable school funding.
Bloated state govt payroll bankrupts state.
You can't make left turns; divided highways ruined once pleasant towns.

Kansas is a pretty cool place, but I think one of the things I find a little challenging is the attitude of some Kansans that many here have a progressing way of thinking (the state has been progressive via some actions).. while in reality, its sadly incorrect.

Lancaster, PA - Ephrata to be exact
Overall pretty nice and quiet, Amish and Mennonites everywhere around me, so little crime. Close enough to Philly to work, etc.

- No close trains to the Philly area where my job is located.
- Too many tourists.
- Too many conservative folks.
- Not enough places to go and make friends.

Tasmania - I wish it were just a little less antipodean.

Since I live in a farming/artsy/semi-rural town, the one thing I can say is the people who move here from a city environment in order to be in a 'quiet, comfortable, friendly town."
Then they bring their metropolitan attitude, paranoia, and unfriendliness with them and try to foist it on others.
I've heard people complain about not being able to get the things that you want 'right down the street' like you can in the city where there are 20 stores within a block or two of where you live, not realizing that you can go downtown here on the green to the hardware store and by a Dacor stove and a Subzero fridge, a few doors down a Tommy Bahama shirt, or fine produce.

Ya can't have everything, buttcha can wail all ya want!

I like the city, and I like the country. More choices of entertainment in the city. More time and money in the country.

makeumyne saidTasmania - I wish it were just a little less antipodean.

Now THIS is a complaint you don't hear often.

("Sweetie, what do you think about this paint color for the bedroom?" "Nah, too antipodean.")

The reputation. I'm not a hilbilly and I don't have a fucking horse for the hundredth time.

So's that what it's like?

Speaking in tongues?

Buffalo- our hideous waterfront with all those old, abandoned grain elevators, militant historic preservationists and NIMBYs stopping any new idea or project from coming to fruition, our incompetent local and state politicians, public employee labor unions, casino gambling proponents, continued decline and abandonment, uncontrolled outer ring suburban sprawl.

State of New York- obviously an unconstitutional shotgun marriage, the state should be politically dissolved into two separate states. We upstaters are sick and damned tired of supporting New York City, Yonkers and Westchester County, and Long Island. Tired of high taxes and a stagnant economy.

I'm from San Diego, Ca and I love the weather, people, beach and ect. My dream place to live has always been to own a high rise in downtown San Diego, just not a big fan of the Ca taxes and gun laws

Your bitterness is getting the better of your brains.

Upstate New York pays less in taxes than it receives in services. It is the city's taxes that support the upstaters, not the other way around.

jprichva, NYC does not support upstate NY. Yes granted they pay more in taxes because of the tremendous difference in population but upstate NY suffers from equally high taxes on top of a depressed, stagnant economy. We get mediocre quality government services from the state. New York also has the most dysfunctional state legislature in the country. This state does not work anymore the only viable solution is to break it up into two separate states and let us upstaters control our own destiny and our natural resources. We could cut our taxes along with our high utility rates and become more attractive for new investment. We have nothing in common with downstate NY so why do we have to remain part of something that does not benefit everyone? Why do we have to suffer from a depressed economy so NYC and Long Island can continue to prosper at our expense.

The mayor of New Orleans. How he got elected again I will never know. Time to move to Austin.

Atlanta. Too much traffic and too much attitude from the gay guys. Straight people are much nicer. Although in both the gay and straight communities Atlanta is very cliquish. It takes a long time to make friends.

Yowza!

Downstate totally supports upstate as Jprichva said. But has not historically always been true. Upstate carried downstate through the 70's.

But calls to separate the two because we have nothing in common? Sweet Jesus. You better count your lucky stars for NYC because our cities operate on state aid. Buffalo can't shake off a control board and our largest growing source of income is STATE AID! Now, I believe that our upstate cities can become viable again in the future. But separate from downstate? We would just be another part of Appalachia.

GobB saidatlanta... its full of peoeple that are concerned with appearance and status. everyone is driving and dressing like millionaires...

Amen!

If we separated from downstate, all of our tax money paid by upstate would remain in upstate and not get diverted to New York City, Yonkers and Westchester County, and Long Island. It is because of dysfunctional state's favoritism of downstate over upstate, the upstate region of New York continues to be ignored and slides deeper into economic depression. We would be far better off a separate state which would make us more competitive for economic development and we could reduce our taxes and have more control over our future. jprichva is wrong on this one because downstate does not support upstate, downstate thieves all our tax money, resources, and our electric power from upstate and thats no bullshit. Upstate does not need downstate period. I vote to abolish this unconstitutional shotgun marriage known as the State of New York. It does not work anymore.

Texas.....HOT and flat......Wait that describes me.LOL!

Casey saidTexas.....HOT and flat......Wait that describes me.LOL!

What I hate about the city I live in is that its too expensive to live in!

Saw this over on a different thread about Philly....but link relates to Dallas....

"Dallas ~ Affordability is the area's best quality. The worst: its people."

Ain't that the truth? And I'm not talking about it's gays....I'm talking about all of 'em...rudest, uncaring, me-me-me mindset I think I've ever come across....

The word TRUTH is something that Dallas lacks Small town boy

So far the only things I really hate in Chicago are the department of licensing and most of the cyclists. I got clipped in the crosswalk by one that ran a red light and the cunt screamed at me like I was in the wrong. I see one or more of them run a red light and almost hit pedestrians every day. I know I am going to see one these fucktards get killed in right in front of me someday and then I will go to hell for shitting myself laughing.

Greenville, SC, AKA: The Bible Belt.

Known for it's rude, close-minded, hypocritical, bible-thumping, ignorant residents. There is nothing to do here, unless you want to go to the movies, video games/go carts at the local "fun park", downtown (where people all look at you like they're better than you), the zoo(which is actually kind of fun), or the park (where the river there is contaminated). So, take your pick. Night life isn't much better. Only one gay bar that I know of, and it's full of, not to sound shallow, either ugly, fat, or men out of my age range, and the music sucks. Now you can hit up the straight bars, which is what I normally do. They are a lot nicer and friendlier there anyways. Or you can also do what all the young kids in high school do, "let's go hang out at the ingle's (or walmart's) parking lot!!"... oh yea, that sounds like a lot of fun.

I know there are probably places that are worse than this, but it still sucks here. No good camping sites nearby, or hiking trails. Always have to travel at least an hour or more to really have fun.

Ohio, the best city, Columbus, is just a dump.

The only thing I hate about New York is how much everyone hates New Yorkers!

I've met some truly great people here and contrary to popular belief, many have gone out of their way to be helpful.

I got my New York drivers license yesterday. I planned to spend 2-3 hours there dealing with crowds and rudeness. It took 45 minutes and every employee was extremely nice; several even joked with me. One wished me a happy birthday when she saw my birthday was coming up in two weeks (hers was 3 days later than mine).

There are many things I could choose to gripe about, but every location has things to complain about. The pluses here far outweigh the minuses. The only thing I regret is not moving here sooner.

Edmonton has a undeserved reputation for being a cultural wasteland, and I hate that. The only thing I hate about living here is the lack of light in winter.

I agree. Winter sucks. I hate shoveling my car out, I hate the cold weather, I hate people that can not drive in snow.

Florida is a terribly anti-gay state.

As I have said, my apartment is up for sale and I am moving to Boston/Cambridge as soon as I find or a job or my apartment sells, whichever comes first.

MO: Once you leave the metropolises of St.Louis or KC, it's nothing but bumpkins who are quite comfortable in the 19th century. Oh, and the way people are so damned religous and think nothing of talking about JC with you! Ugh!

Summers are a bitch in August (if you can live here, you can live anywhere).

The gay men (but oddly not the women) could try harder when it comes to fashion and style.

i hate people who move here, then complain about it. don't like it?! then get the F*CK out and shut up! if you think all angelenos are shallow and vapid, perhaps it's time to take a look at yourself and the people you've chosen to surround yourself with. GO BACK TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM!

My only serious complaint about Cincinnati or Ohio is the conservative thinking of many, even though there are lots of progressive, open minded people here. The rural/suburban/redneck/backward thinking folks seem to have control over more than they should. The right wing and Rethuglicans are quite entrenched in the business, government and community areas here. It's sad.

While there are many things I love about Toronto (it's food, art scene, and gay-friendly vibe) I am disturbed by the increasing number of homeless people begging on the streets. Our transit system leaves much to be desired as well.

patchouliboy saidWhile there are many things I love about Toronto (it's food, art scene, and gay-friendly vibe) I am disturbed by the increasing number of homeless people begging on the streets. Our transit system leaves much to be desired as well.

That's not something that I would have expected in regards to Toronto. We've seen an increase in the number of homeless people down here in south Florida since I came here in 1997 as well.

I live in a province where people can rape the environment and be glorified for doing so.

I don't conform to the steotypical norm in Alberta, so am constantly having to explain myself to those living inside the box.

I hate that in my state I'm a minority who can't find anyone who will accept me without judging my skin and racial background even among other minorities.

I also hate how people drive up here and the Bus System is horrible.Also it Gets freaking cold here.

People should never judge a guy that can make damn fine finger puppets, like the ones in your photo.

Everyone knows everyone

everything? lol

halltd saidI moved to South Florida for a job or otherwise would have never chosen this area. While the ocean is beautiful and the weather is amazing (in the winter), the people are worse than anywhere I've ever lived. I grew up in Ohio, lived in Orlando, Martha's Vineyard, New York City and Portland, Oregon. Never have I experienced such shallow, conniving, untrustworthy and just mean people than I have here. It's really disheartening. Otherwise, I like it.

Not sure if you're closer to South Beach or Fort Lauderdale. Mind clarifying? I've been to South Beach two short visits and I don't like it there myself. I hear nicer things about Fort Laud but I'm not sure since I've never experienced it myself.

LOL. Those finger puppets and I have such a grand old time. We talk about everything. They are my true friends.

Our winters are way too long. That's what I can't stand about Chicago. It could very well drive me away eventually. But then I think after all the major cities I've been to in the US such as SF, NYC, LA, Miami, Houston, New Orleans, Seattle I can't see myself anywhere else.

I'm actually about 30 minutes north of Lauderdale. But, I've been to Lauderdale, West Palm, Aventura, Miami, South Beach, etc.... The people all seem to be the same. I never thought I'd ever miss Ohio, but I really miss it for the people.

I dislike that many of the guys i've interacted with here in LA only want to "hangout" on a purely sexual level. I have yet to meet or talk with someone who just wants to meet and talk and be friends, being that im new to the city someone with insider knowledge would be nice. Any-who, here's hopping i can meet a bud!

Muchmore...you would hate Alaska then of you think Chicago has long winters.

Actually the west coast up through that area has the "El Nino" and this helps keep the area warmer. Even as far north is British Columbia. It is warmer there than it can be in Chicago. We get Arctic freeze your balls off WELL below zero wind shield days that I feel like my face will crack off from being in the cold for 10 minutes. I hate it. Ugh!

But Alaska doesn't get that cold.

I've heard good things about British Columbia, Canada.

SF is a lot more affordable now than it was about 8 years ago. A lot of people have left SF and the rents started to come down.

There's always Berkley for those tarrot card readings.


If you find a good one be sure to let me know.

I need my psychic connection to be well maintained.

Try Geelong - homophobic, ignorant, racist, dirty and rough! And the transport sucks too ...3 more months !

Issacd, do you have an Australian accent? I'd love to hear it with your Asian features. Wow, that must be so exotic to experience. I remember running into some Chinese people in Madrid, Spain. When they opened their mouths and you heard this heavy Castillian accent it made me do a double take.

I love it when life isn't predictable.

I don't hate my state or my city where I live in. Arizona is my favorite state, because it have beautiful sunset and different landscapes (desert, forest, grassland, waterfall, river, and many more) unlike other states. We have all kinds of temperatures... Let say if you are in Phoenix right now it is 102 degrees, Prescott is around 85 degrees and flagstaff is 71 degree. Funny because Flagstaff is only 1 1/2 hrs drive from Phoenix.

I've grown to appreciate my town's small town-ness. Everything moves at a different pace here than say Tucson or even Sierra Vista, the 2nd and 3rd largest cities, respectively.

We have three stop lights, three banks, three auto parts stores, two Circle Ks, two grocery stores, two Chevrons, two movie rental stores, two dollar stores, two bars, two truck stops, one Alco, one McDonalds, one Burger King, one Pizza Hut, one hospital, and a spattering of private businesses.

I say 'we' loosely, since I don't live in town. I live in the country, don'tcha know. No one is in a rush in Willcox. Priorities properly prioritized. ;)

Traffic in LA.

Can't complain about California though, clearly the best state ever :-)

West Hollywood. I love it. Absolutely love it.

I guess it's somewhat Australian. Although I've been told by some it sounds more British, as I used to live there (UK) too. You'll find that there're lots of Asians here, esp in cities like Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, and the Gold Coast. I read somewhere that Australia has the most Asians outside Asia, and the most Greeks outside Greece. And you'll find that those who have been here a while or were born here all have Australian accents. I've found that like in the US, there is some difference in accent between states and regions.

I love Chicago, but I know exactly what you mean. The cyclists don't seem to see lights or cars or people. They just weave in and out of traffic with no regard. We just visited not long ago and Michigan Ave. now has those little traffic cops to help out with that. But, people just keep walking out when the light isn't green, and cars never really slowed down. I knew those must be locals. I thought I was gonna see someone get killed right in front of me.

What I hate most about my state is lack of diversity. Too many rednecks and hillbillys. I think we have more than our share.

lol Are you in that video?

Mexico City...

I love the fact that there's so much to do, I hate the fact that if you happen to leave at the wrong time for the wrong place you might be stuck in traffic for up to (or at least) 2 hours.

I love the fact that there's a forest in the middle of it. I hate the fact that most people think that any part of the floor can substitute a garbage can.

And I hate the fact that not being native to Mexico City, most people will treat you like you have no idea what living in a city is. I think I've received more insulting comments from chilangos (Mexico City people) about coming from outside Mexico City than from Americans about coming from Mexico when I lived in CT.

Oh god I love these threads! Let's see...what do I hate about Los Angeles....

-traffic: too many cars on the road, terrible road planning, trolly systems torn out and roads revamped so that they can never be installed. Instead of investing money in NEW transportation systems they put high quality flat screens in the loud busses which display puzzle games in Spanish to sedate the working class

-scenery: in most places it's a glob if different styled buildings from different years. Something's always torn down and being rebuilt, only to be torn down and rebuilt in another 30 years.

-lack of center: there's nothing grand about Los Angeles. It's just a bunch of suburbs smashed together.

-people you meet: the majority always seem SO EXCITED when they see you even if it's been over a year and you vaguely remember who they are. Yet it's near impossible to plan anything with anyone even if they live next door to you.

-people who say "oh em gee it's just a sunny day today" all the time. Gee ya think? When you move up to Seattle do you say "wow it's such a rainy day today" every day too like you had NO idea it was going to rain?

-night life: much of it closes at 2am. Why? No real reason.

-guys wearing vests....no you are not Blake Lewis

-blonde women on cell phones driving: scariest scene always

-the left is no longer liberal minded people, but rather uber-orthodox level 10 vegan Obamist Trader Joe junkies that get mad at me when I say Madonna's music is just mediocre

Another Melbournite (Melbournian?) here. Agree with the multiculturalism bit, I live in street with people born in Italy, Lebanon, Vietnam and Sudan. I love seeing all their kids play together. And they're just the ones I'm close to, I dunno what's happening at the other end of the street!

There's a huge influx of students from India as well, somedays the train feels like downtown Mumbai.

But definitely agree that the mix of backgrounds makes it a foodies paradise, you can get just about any cuisine you can imagine here.

Live in Santa Monica CA and hate it. Why?

It takes 45 minutes to get any where in a one mile radius.

Always full of tourist, so bad traffic turns into a pit of hell in the summer, and because of tourists prices at bars and restaurants are always more expensive than in other cities.

People are rude and self centered, specially the locals.

You have to travel outside the city to buy any decent clothes or even stuff for your house.

Rent is a rip-off. We pay so much money for a freaking hole in a wall.

Parking anywhere is a gamble. If you do not find a street full of cars, you find streets where you cant park because you need a permit. Everything that is left are parking structures that charge 10 bucks to park for the day.

One independent theater, so we get the worse movies and the good ones come once in a while.

No museums or performance halls.

People don't pick up after their dogs!

Crazy drivers that are either talking on the phone, even now that it is illegal to do so, or tourists that have no idea where they are going and break every traffic rule.

And finally THE 405! The worst freeway in the US. One accident and the freaking thing turns into a parking lot. Get stuck there and it can set you back hours. Get stuck there in the summer and you begin to realize why the West Side of LA is just no worth it.

Memphis: Where do I start?

Crime is out of control.

Just about all of the politicians are crooks.

The mayor is a stubborn, arrogant man and every time someone tries to make a change for the better he thinks it is a personal attack on him and holds a press conference to make sure everyone knows it. He is also giving jobs with $100,000+ salaries to his friends in areas they have no experience or knowledge in.

Most of the people are rude and only care about having another baby so they can get more money from the government.

People can't drive, but from reading the above posts, that seems to be everywhere.

I guess that's a good start.
