When I lived in Oakland, I took the ferry over to work a few times just because it's a nicer ride than the BART, if not longer (and more out of the way). It's fine if you're 9-5/Mon-Fri, but it's definitely not your ticket if you want to stay out with your friends getting loaded.

But San Francisco is full of bums, hill billys, inbreds (thanks to helping me out with that one), delusional people and fugly people.
U mad?

So let me get this straight. After all this BS:

Where are your comparisons coming from? DC is equally as strong if not stronger than the SF Bay Area. And on the East Coast is arguably the 2nd strongest metro after NYC therefore it is not left to be compared to Portland or Seattle (no disrespect to those cities).

Boston would also swallow up SD or Seattle whichever one you prefer.

And if we're talking entire coastlines from end to end and states your leaving out ATL and all of GA and the Carolinas. That would definitely swallow up the entire West Coast with no chance for competition.

In fact I'd say you could take the EC from the Mason-Dixon line on down to Miami and out do the West any day. And that's leaving Philadelphia on up out of the equation

There are no ties here East>West hands down!!
#521 (More proof that Philly is full of imbeciles)

You can have all the mountains and deserts you want on the West Coast, along with the wildfires, earthquakes, and mudslides, it just overall cannot top the EC.

By the way i find the climate in parts of the WC to be very overrated for example the Bay Area, I've heard of people wearing sweaters in 50 degree weather in June/July out there. In the summer?? That's ridiculous the summer is supposed to be hot, not mild. Yes it gets humid on the EC, but so what that's what summer is for, go outside and get sweaty!
And the opinion of ONE POSTER WHO IS NOT EVEN FROM SF giving SD the nod over Philly, followed by you and the other reject both attacking him for his opinion, prompting him to respond with one single derogatory line in "Philly is a dump," warranted you coming back with, "And San Francisco is a filthy bum filled city that smells like **** and generates no interest from anyone thats not a fugly weird hippie, or gay," and basically crowning you "King Tard" of this thread? And that somehow amounted to "him starting it?" And then you felt the need to attack SF?? Could you BE more at fault?

We're supposed to keep reading endless disrespectful crap like this, but the second we have any kind of opinion that favors something over here over anything over there, WE'RE suddenly at fault? Anyone who believes this can suck it.

But him and I are the bad guys, YEAH RIGHT!

And in case "you wasn't paying attention" (which obviously you weren't), YOU weren't the only one I had responded to right then meaning I DIDN'T SINGLE YOU OUT, GENIUS!!

Talk about delusional. I won't even bother perpetuating this lame tit-for-tat you're trying to keep going. If morons want to keep making Philly and the NE look like its just an area full of ignorant meatheads, who am I to stop y'all? But don't even try and front like you tards aren't the ones instigating all this negative BS in the first place.

Oh yeah, THAT and losing the Superbowl both times in their two and only trips. Philly has more banjos and inbred Deliverance types per capita than any other major US city. CONGRATS PHILTHY!!!

See, I can play too! Lately I've been reading posts from Philly posters speaking out against this type of crap that lead me to believe that maybe some of you had turned a new leaf and were choosing to finally be above it. Clearly YOU aren't one of them, which pretty much keeps the rest of us engaged in this type of ignorance as well. I like how you chose to do it immediately following a barrage of ignorance from some of your fellow East Coasters. Way to keep it classy and fault us for having any type of reaction to your guys' BS.
Yea and you proved to keep it sooo much classier with this post. Congratulations!!
