How would you know? You have never traveled anywhere. You have lived your whole life in NC and TX.

You have never even stepped foot in NYC, but bash it in every post.

When did I BASH NYC? I even gave NYC it's props. I said it is DIVERSE, SUPER CULTURED, so on and so forth. I said the REST of the state is lacking. And I HAVE indeed been to the Northeast. I have cousins ALL OVER NJ, from North NJ to South NJ, I got cousins in Philly, I got a cousin in Brooklyn NYC, I got a cousin in DC, I got cousins in freakin Montreal Canada. I've visited them ALL. I gave the Northern cities there respect.

Ok, this is what cracks me up with this site. People in the north don't have to give respect to the south and vice versa as long as they have stepped foot there.

I have lived in the south in many different cities and traveled to many others.

I have been to Houston, Dallas, Tampa, Orlando, Charlotte, Miami, Atlanta and many other smaller cities. The only one that I cared for is Miami.

THe two main problems that people in the North have with the south is the sprawled. The only city in the south that is truly urban (without sprawl) and southern culture is Miami. People in the North are not required to like the south.

If South Florida was its own state it would be one dense mammy jammy with 15 million population within a 25,000 sq. miles or less that is some serious density,considering we used Orlando Metro as the starting point for South Florida and that extended from coast to coast and all the way to Key West.

I know, thats very odd, everything is supposed to be urban, aged, and fast paced with 4 seasons, its getting very old.

There is nothing narrow about it. If someone wants a truly urban city the south doesnt offer it except for Miami.

Not to many people including myself.

YOU want an urban city, you're not everyone Chaka Khan.

No need for that language. You are 16 years old, you should not be using that foul language, it does not help get your point across.
