I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
I have also lived in Florida. I'd be scared of going that far north. I could probably handle snow on a ski course but thats about as far as im willing to take it. how do you plan to cope?

It doesn't loving snow in Portland you idiot. Maybe 0.5 times per year you will get a couple inches and everyone will freak out but really you should prepare for endless rain and never seeing the sun

Money is being dumped into this city left and right and I have been offered more jobs here than Florida has. Yes, the economy is better. I am currently in VC at the moment and oh boy, the liquor taxes are horrid.

Don't worry OP, the average snow is only a few inches each year, unlike places like New York or Minnesota which get real snow each year.

It's pretty much what you can expect from a state with only 4 million people and has a provincial rural mindset more than anything.

Hey. Hey you. Minority. Don't you just looooove hearing my opinions on race? Am I blowing your mind right now, that I think about/for you? Ha ha. See? I'm not like other whites. I include you in our conversation. I mean, I can't talk to you without getting uncomfortable, careening the conversation back to some poo poo I heard on NPR, hanging on your every word like I'm about to diarrhea with excitement. It's different when I do it.

santa barbara is cool if you're early/mid 20s but i think it;d be weird to live there after 25. oakland has a lot of hot single chicks b/c they've been all priced out of SF

Welcome to San Diego my friend. We don't really care where you're from around here because gosh darnit, there is more than enough awesome to go around and the sun is almost always shining. Seriously, almost always. It's becoming a problem. We might have to start stealing more water from Arizona.

cant you only drive through it at 12mph max even if you wanted to go faster? socal traffic and geography confuses me so im not sure where the hideous 11pm 12 lanes of traffic starts and ends.
