I love all the things to do, the culture and the access to ethnic foods and markets, but the weather and people leave a lot to be desired.
Oh, so you live in Philly? I want to see a picture of your lazy, fat, stupid, rude, ugly azz. You show me yours and I'll show you mine.

Another intellectually challenged post and quite immature at that. .

I dont have many, many negative posts, creeper, I have a total of 5 posts (this will be 6).

Whether or not you agree, I have the right to voice my opinion. Yes, I do want to move, what's it to you? If you dont like or agree with what I write, move on. This is a discussion board for people to share their experiences (good and bad) with others who want to know about different communities. Everyone's posts are based on personal experience and no two people will have the same experience.

Just because you love Philly doesn't mean you get to tell me I'm wrong. So suck it!

How is it intellectually challenged and immature? Dont shoot the messenger. A quick Google search will tell confirm that there are a few magazines that compiled this information, its not me making a personal decision.

Sorry if you're offended but it's not my fault. It would seem to me the intellectually challenged/immature behavior would be to insult someone for something without checking the facts first. Typical Philly!

well you most certainly have a good attitude, and as you say I am equally afforded the right to voice my opinion

And it's nothing to me outside of one less negative person, the city has enough so that is a step in the right direction...

Sf is all about new money, rich kids bringing in millions and billions, Philly just breathes old school class. Feels like a city that has and will stand the test of time. Both cities offer different strokes for different folks.

Both are great cities in their own right; but each certainly has a different attitude about them with some posters. .
