I could give a sh*t about Chicago, or city vs city. I'm about money and enjoying life. The only reason I came on here is because you said some straight inaccurate sh*t about the east coast and refused to retract.

But while we're on the subject, yea Chicago people are fixated on LA n NYC...especially NYC. Straight inferiority complex. You all think that NYC is the only city that brings heat. Honestly, outside of the midwest, nobody really gives a sh*t about Chi man. It's not like anybody on either coast is taking about Chicago. If they talk about other cities, typically it's cities on the opposite coast.

That said, I DO like Chicago a lot, and think it's a great city. Had madd fun in Chi back in the day! Not really trying to disparage it. Just breaking ya balls a little, lol.

Take that out and they are just as interesting as Illinois, Wisconsin, or Indiana. You telling me people to to that area to hit up Baltimore?
Flyover country is the middle between the 2 coasts: Midwest and South. The cultural vacuum of Merica. Chicago, Denver and maybe Minneapolis are the only towns I would consider living in from here to California.

I'll take Nova and Md over Shaumburg, or Ohare area anytime.

Oak Park and Evanston are aiight. North shore is nice though!

East Coast nastiness. That's cute. I bet you move your hands around when you "tawk" too to give yourself more legitimacy. You probably also say "fuggedaboutit" too.

Also, the Midwest and the South are flyover country? Well, kill thyself now because you're in the South whether you want to believe it or not.

What do thread like this actually prove. I have been to many Global Cities where only NYC could measure up too. Who cares, I live in small city now and its working with making the right connections and good relationships. What try to compare with other cities when most of those people are fake, unhappy, and trying to impress people with doing everything on credit. It all about quality of life and not the number of buildings and working some job that makes someone else rich. ijs

South, Northeast or Mid Atlantic. It doesn't really matter.

Dude comes in to the thread saying "I don't give a sh*t about Chicago" but who was the one who wandered into the thread completely unsolicited? You don't dedicate pages of replies to something you "don't give a sh*t about". You absolutely do bruh, otherwise you wouldn't be here.

For the record, I was being sarcastic. I obviously don't think Chicago is better than DC in all categories. They're both awesome cities. I was just messing with him because he was so pressed that he was posting on CD on a Friday night in a thread that originally didn't even mention DC. How does DC keep getting brought up in these threads in Chicago that don't even mention it???
