I did that too but I am back. Good Luck!

This is apparently better than New York? It looks extremely mediocre, kind of like a ****hole at first glance.
It looks pretty ordinary. I think it has more to do with the type of people who live in Colorado.

I am surprised that you said that. I thought that you wanted to leave.

Of course I do. Packing up is not easy when you have loads of friends, lots of family and a huge ***** apartment. But its the honest truth. If I was not born in New York City. My attitude would be on par with majority of white millennial suburban snowflakes who want to move to a big city to make it here. Sheesh, I did not ask to be born here. But I was, I am.

NOT EVERYONE WHO MOVED TO NYC, EVEN IN THE LAST 20 YEARS MOVE HERE "to make it" UGH! Some people moved here to hide, some people moved here to be a degenerate, some people moved here because they were right across the damn hudson river (me), etc.. It seems like it's only been the last 10 or so years that NYC has become so Bay Area-ized, and that is FOUL. Like chicken liver farking foul.

Why? He's aware that just because he's tired of something doesn't mean everyone will feel the same way. As he said, different strokes for different folks.

That makes two ridiculous comparisons in a row. You must be used to speaking to dumbasses who don't catch such nonsense.

You're insanely defensive over some ****ty small town in Colorado that nobody cares about, no it's not better than a mega-city and cultural capital like NYC and never will be, get ****ing real.

Your forceful elitism has made me change my mind. It's such an impossible force to overcome!

I really do need to learn how to more quickly bend to the "what I say is best!" attitude we encounter so often here.
