Booo
First gripe is the choice is far too limited I just had to pick one to get it over an done with. I mean we all know Dublin outstrips the rest of those holes by miles what with its clean streets and abundance of wonderful people (in case you hadn't figured that sentiment was dripping with sarcasm). Seriously though if any of you have seen the city of Luzern in Switzerland you wouldn't be caught dead picking the above.

Many of the people here also have a really bad case of the "world-class wannabe" complex. In a true "world-class city," the people don't care whether anybody else in the world thinks they're world-class or not. I sometimes think you could get a typical Vancouverite to sell his own daughters, if only you tell it will make him more "world class." I once remember someone even driving his guests through our Downtown Eastside, so that he could show them the "real hardcore junkies that give our city a bit of an mean edge." You know your city has "made it to the bigs" when you have that edge. |
