| Leftists, what more needs to be said? |
I lived in Southaven MS with my parents for about 4 or 5 months after I left college. I enjoyed the area, but I had nothing in common with anybody there. Even if I wasn’t chasing my future wife, I still would have left to go back to Il. I didn’t realize until a few years later how much I hate the damn politics here. But I’ll have to wait until retirement to escape this bullshit. | ||

New York (not NYC, more upstate). HATED the weather - too cold and wet or too hot and humid. And hated having to mow the lawn every other weekend in the summer, shovel the snow whenever it snowed in the winter. Hated the mile long walks back and forth to the school bus stop during winter pouring rains (snow was better than rain as long as it wasn't blizzard). And the friggin mosquito mobs whenever you do anything outside (ie - play tennis). Most of the people were okay though. Second was the Bay Area. And this was before the crazy people really brought the crazy. Just general idiots all densely packed into a small metro area. Can't escape them / avoid them. Ever. I'd spend 45 minutes of each way of my commute trying to avoid assholes over a 15 mile drive. "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it."

New Hampshire After 26 years it went to the dark side and became infected with Massholes and assorted riff raff from New York and Connecticut. Went from pleasantly republican to democrat and I found it intolerable. | |||

My wife hated Huntsville Alabama and was thrilled when I got orders. Reason, being in Tornado alley/Dixie alley. Me, I still miss Larry’s Pistol and Pawn. I was glad to leave Oahu, the procedure to purchase a gun is a pain. Lock N Load Michael USMC Ret | |||

Specter, Larry’s is a beautiful place. Back to the question: Hatteras island-walked in on my wife cheating on me and couldn’t leave soon enough-she stayed and somehow got my kid ( I had 3 yrs on my contract and the CG didn’t care-couldn’t xfer soon enough) My kid did choose to remove himself from her when he was 18-he’s 33 now and hasn’t spoken to he since that day. So I chalk that up for a win. “You may beat me, but you will never win.” sigmonkey-2020 “ in my opinion, anything that we can do to trigger a potential aneurysm in a leftist is a good thing and worth doing” nhtagmember 2025 | |||

| The success of a solution usually depends upon your point of view |
Great Lakes, IL We made the best of it. Lots to do and see in Chicago and we did everything that appealed to us but we hated being there. The weather sucked. Having to put on a sweatshirt in what should have been summer was wrong on so many levels. The locals were standoffish. Talking to people in the check out lane just got you strange looks and extra room. Not like in the south were everyone talks to each other. “We truly live in a wondrous age of stupid.” - 83v45magna "I think it's important that people understand free speech doesn't mean free from consequences societally or politically or culturally." -Pranjit Kalita, founder and CIO of Birkoa Capital Management | |||

Where’d you go ? Here’s a sad story … I grew up in St. Cloud, MN, went to St. John’s University and then the Illinois College of Optometry … came back and had a wonderful practice - St. Cloud “changed” and private equity came knocking, I’ll never look back at that current shithole. SCSU ( remember the one that Herb Brooks took to D1 in hockey, went from ~ 18,000 students to < 9000 ( I heard but who knows, campus is a ghost town ) Moved to Crosslake, MN - life is good. I’m 52.

Seattle area. Moved there for work. Knew I had made a mistake 2 weeks in to living there and had to stomach it a full year before I could move out. It wasn’t the rain or the weather. It was the introverted people who the weather had a dramatic effect on. There were people there pissed off when the sun would be out and say they wanted to go back to normal, which was grey cloudy overcast or straight up raining. Now it’s DFW. Millions moved here, traffic like LA where I live. Costs of everything is way up. My areas is to get outside on the weekends are completely gone, now subdivision hell. Day I get to move will be the greatest day of my life. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||
