I'm from Minneapolis, but I currently live in Cleveland (do you hate it now?). That's why I sometimes remark in threads about Minneapolis. The more I confront you the more I realize you have spent almost ZERO time there, so why open your trap in the 1st place? I don't care for California but you don't see me venting on those threads, do you?

No. I've always liked Cleveland. Since I don't know you, your living there doesn't change my opinion.

Whoever started this thread I think has a lost cause...both are definitively Midwestern cities.

well, minneapolis is a little over half white, but i dont see the problem in that, it shouldnt be bad to be white just as it shouldnt be bad to be any race. But i dont consider having an 18% black population as not diverse. Its just not like detroit. Still a good city, both are.

Yes, but St. Louis is the Gateway to the West. Hence, you must be gatewaying from the Midwest.

Minneapolis has more of a service/professional base, has stronger Nordic roots, is more Lutheran, one will shovel more snow, and one will need an engine block heater.

I could probably exist in St. Louis. I would probably go into a coma in the Twin Cities.
It's obvious you have some sort of twisted obsession with Minneapolis. Seriously, your shots at the city are identical to those that come from people who are jealous (obsessed) with Charlotte. I suggest you chill or perhaps find a different city to jerk off over.

Hey some people can't help that they can't handle snow or cold temperatures.

Maybe we need an icon for that.

Some people can't help but to troll either, which robertpolyglot has done plenty of lately.
