Your mantra seems to be hypocrisy these days.
When Californians are making claims that SF can compete with Manhattan for urbanity it should be expected

Again, do you really want to go down this road?

BK overall is desirable. The only areas not desirable are the nabes with high crime, which every city/area has.

Let's hear about those so called less desirable areas of BK. Honestly, this is a call out. I am testing your knowledge of BK. The longer it takes you to reply is the longer I am assuming you are googling. And don't give me the areas everyone knows such as Brownsville, ENY, Crown Heights and Bed-Stuy. Give me some info the average person doesnt know, honestly I dont think much time was spent there.

The only road I want to go down is the one that leads me to the

I will concede and limit responses to only include the pure joy of the mantra

Bay area bay area bay area SF bay area Cali bay area Asian bay area
Why do Bay Area posters always focus so much on Asians?

"Let's do a rundown of the Asians!"

Is that all SF has? What's the Puerto Rican community like there? How about the Dominican community? The Cuban community? The Polish community? The Ukranian community?

I guess San Francisco is to Asians what Atlanta is to African Americans.

As far as Hipocrisy, well then I might just fit in well in the

Yeah, it really doesn't achieve the "level of the Bay Area" do deny the importance of SF in the Civil Rights movement and to laugh at homelessness in SF and be in denial of the social issues in Brooklyn.

Zero east coast douchebaggery whatsoever.

Why do you focus so much on West Indians? Literally 50% of your posts are about them.


Again, why the hypocrisy?

Do they teach reading comprehension out there? Who on here claimed that Brooklyn was all "upscale vibrancy?" We have bourgie neighborhoods like Park Slope and rough areas like East New York. 18Montlclair said that SF is "upscale vibrant" whereas Brooklyn is for the Archie Bunkers of the world (even though he was from Queens). The people in that video didn't look too "upscale" to me. What's up with that, B?

Yet its the Philly people who bring up Asians in the Bay Area almost every time.

Sounds like envy to me.

You might have to explain the bolded to some of your fellow east coasters, they pretend as if these areas don't exist and all of Brooklyn is the envy of the world.
