[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Live in DC and it's still a 20 min walk from my rowhouse to the closest metro and a 30+ min walk from the closest metro to my work in DC.

I drive everywhere every day. DC has a horrible public metro system without any grand solution to make it easier for people. Remove lanes but don't add metro stops in the city. Great, that just makes everyone p*ssed off.

And don't tell me about busses, you cannot get anywhere faster on a bus in DC than you could if you drove.

Moving to the burbs and I will deal with less traffic in the burbs for my routine errands. You heard me. LESS TRAFFIC. Yes, more traffic getting into the city, but I can drive in during non-peak times so it's honestly not any different than driving to work in the city during peak.

Hey, sometimes you gotta recognize it's time to wave the white flag. If it's what is right for you, quitting and retreating to the suburbs and trying to carve out the best life you can is what you should do. We can't all win.[/quote]

Of course not. I mean, even the folks who do live in the nicer parts of DC are still losing because living in a different city closer to a nice beach would be truly winning.

In the end, we're all failing.[/quote]

We live in DC and have a beach house in DE for weekend getaways.  Life is pretty damn good.[/quote]

But… but… but Loudon? I drowned myself in debt and car payments and loneliness to live in some remote parking lot hellscape and you’re telling me you have it all? But I murder my lawn with pesticides!!! I’m a GODDAMN HOA vice-president! YOU MUST RESPECT ME? WHY DONT YOU THINK IM A WINNER! IM NOT LOSER! PLEASE TELL ME IM NOT A LOSER![/quote]
