[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ashburn is just too far and barren. Nothing there, only new cookie cutter neighborhoods. [/quote] Borrrrring![/quote] Perhaps a few carjackings and armed robberies with a sprinkle of rapes would liven your dc surroundings?[/quote] Nope, you can stop the TV drama. Have lived in the city for over 10 years and none of the above has happened to me or my neighbors that I know of. Best you stay in boring, boring Ashburn and your vanilla boring life.[/quote] DC sounds so thrilling...and yet here you are trolling a thread about Ashburn. Enjoy your life in your boarded-up, barricaded, locked-down encampment of a “city.” [/quote] Nope, not trolling. I’m here because I know Ashburn, the real estate, and area well. DH used to live there, and we rented his place and recently sold his place there. His mom and sister is still there. The reason why there is a lot of security with the inauguration is because of racist white supremicist of which I’m sure there is a number of them out in Ashburn. DC is thrilling and lots to do even with a family. BTW I suggest you get some help with your rape comment. I was not the original poster above but responded as a female in kind to your ignorant, rude, and demeaning remarks. [/quote] "DC is thrilling." Excuse me, what? Do you know what thrilling means? I've lived in cities twenty times+ the size of DC and there wasn't anything thrilling about it. Jumping out of an airplane without a parachute is thrilling. DC is not.[/quote] I don’t think you understand what thrilling means. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/thrilling Lots of exciting things happening in DC and front and center is experiencing history as it is written. [b]Been to the inauguration of the 1st black president? Heard a president speak live? Been to the Women’s March or climate change March? Seen Hamilton or the symphony? Attended a famous book signing? [/b] You might not find these remarkable history changing events thrilling but trust me thousands do. [/quote] Lol! Wut? I live in Ashburn and have done all of this. Including attending the The Obama for America Staff Ball at the Armory. However I did go to Hilary Clinton's Book signing, but that was in Virginia. Does that count? The symphony is REALLY REALLY REALLY boring. That was a one and done. Are you under the impression that only DC residents attend inauguration and marches? You really need to get out more. There's a big world out there waiting for you to learn all about. [/quote] Ok then. Have you: spent actual time really exploring the National Gallery of Art? wandered the Tidal Basin? ate at Nobu? shopped in Georgetown?[/quote] 1. So many times, if I never stepped foot in there again I'd die happy. Between school field trips, out of town guests, and a few random exhibits i wanted to see if I never stepped foot in there I'd die happy. However I absolutely love love the Rijksmuseum. 2. Too many tourists. Nothing appealing about being in nature with a zillion people throwing all their trash around and walking around with selfies sticks. I don't really care to wade through empty plastic water bottles and throngs of loud Chinese tourists. 3. There is a Nobu in DC? Who cares? I went to the one on 57th and also the pleasure of dining at Sukiyabashi Jiro. It ruined all other sushi for me. How does Nobu DC compare? Can it compete with Jiro? Nobu is practically a chain now. You could at least have called out Barmini or Rose's. 4. I certainly don't need to travel to Georgetown to shop at an Athleta, Banana Republic or Sunglasses Hut. Is this supposed to be a selling point? Do people still shop at these stores? Is the TJ Maxx any good there? :lol: do you finish up your shopping with lunch at Chipotle? [/quote] As a DC resident I agree with the above. Who shops in stores since 2019? [/quote]
