.. about your city.

I mean after living in a certain area you grow to love it for some reasons or hate it I suppose.

So what do you like about your city?

Don't you guys love it how BreakABone always asks these questions and then never answers them himself?

Yeah...me too.

Anyway, my town is first and foremost, the greatest sports town. Second, we got the Arch. No one else does. And then, you got the great midwestern weather and culture.

EDIT: For those who don't know, I live in St. Louis, MO. That is all.

If he did answer it, then he wouldn't have a legitmate reason to bump it in the event this topic fails; or so I'm told.

Uhhh....lets see:

-Prostitutes
-Hobos
-Hollywood
-Stars
-Lakers
-Downtown
-The county district is larger then the smallest two states or something like that...
-only eight states have a larger population including Ca.
-Jillian on Good Day LA
-Lots of Bars...
-Corrupt Cops (not too proud of that)
-Dodgers

-one thing I dont like: Venice Beach (i.e. freak town) mostly just shops that sell hindu statues and marjuana shirts.

Yeah the stuff above is a little, But I could go on forever...I might do that later even. Buts is really confusing when you get down too it. Most people view LA as a city, but its a county with about 88 cities. So im just viewing the county, since all the sports teams are like that too. Though they are trying to split up san fernando valley, the bulk of LA, from the county...which is also confusing...

What I like about my city...

• Money is not an issue
• There's a lot of sidewalks and some parks to enjoy the city from your
bicycle, scooter, or skateboard.
• There are lot's of bike trails to travel around my city on
• It's generally a safe place
• The schools are excellent
• We have a variety of restauraunts and other forms of recreation
• The houses are all spread away from the downtown except for the
apartments
• There are endless opportunities to play sports on organized teams any time
of the year
• We are a friendly community
• It well kept and clean
• It's landscaped well

Lygon street and Music Junction.

DeathsHand · 04-25-2002, 12:43 AM

eehhhhh well I've lived in arlington all mah life... I dunno what I like about it... it's nice though

I guess it's convenient... lots of stuff everywhere... don't gotta go very far from where I live to get to the mall or the metro or whatever...

And the metro connects you with so many other places... DC and such...

And it's just nice... all country emptiness, but not like a huge crazy city...

Oh and did I mention the all-star sports lineup?... The wizards... and capitals....... and........ redskins.....

although that's DC and not arlington, close enough... BTW, I still like the redskins

uhh yeah... so..... yeah..... It's also got nice biking stuffs... a nice bike trail... and also some nice lil' offroad areas down by the river...

yeah.... bye

You have rivers in your town? I wish we did...that would be so cool. We have the LA river, buts its walls are cement and its only 10-20 feet wide ussualy. About 4 feet deep. And the water dosnt seem to appealing.

Yeah... it's the Potomac... it seperates Arlington and DC

Then there's the Anacostia river or something that runs up through DC.... but.... that's probably like.... filled with bodies or something

And you killed them, didn't you Deathshand

*hopes nobody realises he's trying to put the blame on someone else*

Revival · 04-25-2002, 09:05 AM

Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Derry is the ****tiest town ever. I've been wanting to move for years now.. no such luck

Ric · 04-25-2002, 10:57 AM

Nothing, I absolutely hate it, it's complete sh*t. Oh wait, I dont live in a city do I

guess I was wrong.

What do I like about it, the fact that the countryside is right on my doorstep and that its... its my place, part of me, where I grew/am growing up.

Perfect Stu · 04-25-2002, 11:06 AM

Toronto

Great sports city, especially hockey (this is the REAL hockey town, not Detroit)
Lots of things to do
Great golf courses
Great climate IMO (I like snow in the winter)
Has this damn good nightclub (The Guvernment...although I've only been there for like 2 hours on some youth day garbage)
CN Tower
Friendly people (unless you get too close to Lake Ontario [way downtown]...then the people get freaky)
Uh...and...great golf courses...again...

Then again, the people in my specific neighbourhood are just evil...
