KaiserKarl posted:San Francisco is a pretty awesome place to live if you luck into a somewhat reasonable rent controlled apartment, or are a millionaire, and don't mind copious street making GBS threads. It also hilarious how bay area natives dislike people from the other side some much. Yup everyone was from LA is shallow, stupid and has a million dollars in plastic surgery.

Stick Figure Mafia posted:If you ever visit SF everyone will hate you. They can just tell you are from LA or something. Either that or they're just rude to everyone (this is also a possibility). They are probably mad over how you can tell if a LA girl is hot, while you can't tell for SF girls since they wear 5-6 layers.

Harime Nui posted:California has the distinction of being the first American state to reinvent feudalism lol Not to mention the whole direct democracy experiment. TeeMerk posted:state tax, crippling home prices and so much regulation if I want to start a business instead of working for one. The average home price close to where I live is 1 million, one town over it's 2 million dollars for a ugly rear end rancher style house. The top bracket for the state is 12.3% and most counties have a 9.5% percent sales tax. So basically CA combined both Oregon and Washington's bad state tax system into a single state. etalian fucked around with this message at 17:18 on Jan 10, 2015 |

I know lots of older white guys at work, who don't mind working overtime. Mainly because it gives them a good cover story for their better half when they go down to the local massage parlor. The other weird thing about SF is I thought with all single rich nerds it would have more strip clubs and other similar types of late night entertainment.

Oneiros posted:I stopped in Schein & Schein (cool shop) once before making my way up to Coit Tower and dug out a mid 1800s map of California. I immediately noticed the depiction of an enormous lake in the central valley where I was pretty certain there was no lake. How the hell did we lose the the 10th largest lake in the country? Just the same old story, the lake was overused due to agriculture/muni supply and it dried up over time despite being the largest freshwater lake in the USA.
