They eat up space, the pickup truck driver is either a handsome italian man or some fat redneck and they all speed and act macho especially when a light turns green where the road merges into one lane. Screw these people, I hope they lose their wonderful salaries and buy traditional SUVs but not Ford Explorers. Also, I didn't know women drive pickup trucks these days.
Your problem doesnt sound like its with rich people and rednecks, its anyone that indirectly helps you confirm that youre a beta-male. At least thats what it seems like.

You sound young and like you want to be rich without doing any of the work. You know thats not going to happen right?

Until you stop worrying about whos doing better than you, and worry only about how you can do better for yourself, moving out of NJ isnt going to help you.

No matter where you go, Im sure you will decide to pick out people that you can guess will always be better than you, just to feel sorry for yourself. Thats no way to live life.

Trust me... those with emotional issues--such as he displays--are never "cured" by changing their state of residence.
Yeah, its very apparent that his "Cure" involves alot of pro-counselling.

Are you the one who used the term "geographical cure" before? I was actually going to write a thread in the General US Forum asking if any geographical cures actually did exist when particular users have moved states. I love stealing your term.

I'll be fat and lazy and work at McDonald's and expect to become rich, move into a good house in central Morris County, buy a family pickup truck off from my riches, dangle my arm out the window, and drive like an idiot.

If I am complaining about New Jersey's horrifying redneck culture, then I should complain how Los Angeles girls are more beautiful than me with their beautiful blonde hair, their Hollywood looks, their massive breasts, and that they drive a convertible.

I may have used that term in previous posts, but it is certainly not unique to me--so if you choose to use it, you would certainly not be "stealing it". Mental Health professionals have been using that term for several decades in order to describe futile attempts by neurotic people to improve their mental health by changing their state of residence.
