this is the third time that you have made an assumption about something and it has already been discussed.

How do you know that?

You seriously come up with the most random arguments. It's like debating with a 12 year old.

I sincerely hope you don't travel Europe this summer with the "I'm cool because I'm from NYC" attitude. They aren't very fond of that.

Yeah, I think Charlotte wins hands down as far as entertainment and interesting things that happen.


I hope you can sense my sarcasm...

Even then, some may see that as a good thing.
Yeah, apparently she's never heard of Mardi Gras.

I'd rather have all the parades through NYC, along with the street fairs, festivals etc, than just 1 cool event a year lol. I mean, what other city has a parade like the Mermaid parade in Coney Island?

YouTube - Bad Soulja Girl attack a old woman in Subway (soulja boy)
why would i want to see a girl from the ghetto that can not afford a piece of gum singing a song.

i wish another girl would just go up to her and lay her out.

by the way..... she sounds like a hick

I'm making no assumptions, only stating facts. A salary has to reach a certain threshold before it can be said to automatically offset a higher (or lower) cost of living. That's simply a fact.

This is starting to get funny..how is it possible that you miss every point people make? You stated that things like some girl pole dancing in the subway do not exist in the South, and that people in the South would call the cops if they saw something like that. Which I replied, you obviously have never heard of Mardi Gras. The things that go on there are insane, and a lot more entertaining than your ridiculous video.

I was not comparing festivals between any cities. But, you know..the ENTIRE south only has one cool event a year.

Let's try to keep up dear!
