It's nice to see many people that agree with me.

I've never seen a city with so many websites devoted to how ugly it is. So sad.

Ugly LA: A community urban design forum (broken link)

I don't HATE Los Angeles, it can actually be fun, but If I hear one more jaded Los Angeleno describe LA as paradise, I will scream. Let's be honest here.

But of course! As pessimistic as I may come across, I actually LIKE Los Angeles for what it is.

LA has it's beautiful parts but it isn't anywhere near a "gorgeous city" or paradise.

I just miss my home town - Paris

*sigh*

So I guess since you probably can't afford it, you have to make completely ridiculous statements. Sorry, Beverly Hills is as much of a paradise in person as it is projected from the media.

Can't afford it!!

hahahahaha.

music6lover,

I hate to result to nouveau riche come-backs, (well this is Los Angeles, after all so it's excusable) but one of my cars is worth more than you will earn in your lifetime. You obviously have no clue who I am!

Enjoy Watts.

And that is why a "rich person" ahem such as yourself hangs out on a message board?

Another nice thing about LA is that when I get on the bus in the morning, everyone....the working class.....always smells so nice.....goes with the nice sunshiny mornings and all the roses around.

When I was in Paris, I was left wondering how such nice perfumes come out of a place where everyone smells so bad??

My favorite thing about Los Angeles is the nice policemen who help little old ladies across the street. My mailman is awesome also, also smiling and whistling and the milk man is the same. Every house on my block has roses in their yards and children can actually play safely in the streets.

Wait, we're not being sarcastic???

LP, if you hate LA so much then why do you keep coming back here to tell us that? We know you hate it, now stay out of here and let those who actually like it talk about it.
