[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a fellow Brooklynite I urge you to ignore the posters and "friends" telling you Silver spring or Shepherd Park are a good match. They are depressing pokey little suburbs. I would look at Logan Circle, Capitol Hill, Hill East, Noma.

[b]NW DC is a suburb. I felt very strange there as a non-white person.[/b]  The Maryland suburbs are depressing and horrible. Sorry but coming from Brooklyn you will cry thinking that you live in such a boring, depressing place. There are Shepherd Park boosters on here all the time- it's a dismal, far-flung suburb.  I'm sorry if I'm insulting your neighborhood, but the advice you're giving on here is beyond bad. Stay urban and stay sane. [/quote]

Whatever, dude.  We are PoC, one of us grew up in NYC, and we live in Shepherd Park.  [b]Do you even live in DC?  My guess is you live somewhere in VA[/b], which is why you're painting all of NW DC with one broad brush.[/quote]

Why VA?

She probably lives in a project in SW.

Doubtful.  DCUM doesn't seem to draw from the projects, that slur is pretty lame and you'd know that if you'd been here for longer than a cup of coffee.

(NP and not involved in your little tete-a-tete; it simply doesn't pass the smell test.)[/quote]
