[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here. Typo corrected below. Damn Android auto correct. DC is not city enough for me therefore tract home or McMansion in the urbane quarters of MoCo, Arlington, or Fairfax. Only the finest in cul de sac neighborhoods appeal to my discriminating cosmopolitan tastes. The traffic in DC suburbs is truly an indulgence only the most seasoned city connoisseurs can appreciate. Who needs a show at Studio Theater, an opera at Kennedy Center, or exhibit opening at the National Art Museum during the week when you have endless columns of SUVs to ogle at on 66, 270, or, yes, that splendid jewel of white flight, the Capitol Beltway.[/quote] Oh us urbane DC dwellers are constantly at the Kennedy Center abd Studio Theater watching shows, an amenity that is utterly unavailable to anyone not residing within District limits! We are oh so cultured and also have lots of free museums that only city-dwellers can use. Nothing says "cultured" like visiting Air & Space and riding in the similator games! We are so smug and urban as we ride around in our laughingstock of a Metro system. NYC is lame compared to us smarmy DCers, they wish they could pay for the urban grit of a subway system that is never on time and has killed more people than any transit system in this hemisphere. DC is for true urban sophisticates, who enjoy thr finer things in life, like stepping over piles of 7-11 filth and dodging bullets even in the nicest neighborhoods. We are so smarmy and important andedit our DCUM posts to fix typos.[/quote] I've encountered multiple people (friends of friends, usually millenials) who ask, "so, like, how did you GET here tonight?" I got here in my car; it took about 15 minutes. Enjoy waiting around 25 minutes for the metro at 1:00 am (oh, wait, it's now going to stop running at midnight even on weekends). "you live.... all the way out there??" Invariably - in every single case - these people moved here a few years ago from flyover country. [/quote]
