[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anybody else noticed that OP peaced out a LONG time ago?  The person you all think is the OP is actually someone who is currently living in DC but originally from Cincinnati.[/quote]

You're wrong - it seems there are actually 3-4 of us.  And if you don't want Midwesterners to jump on you, people here should try not being so ignorant, dismissive and rude of any city more than 50 miles west of the Atlantic.  Just ASKING questions like "are people educated and successful there?" or "is there ANY culture?" is either:

A) startling evidence of the insular snobbery of many, many people here, or
B) startling evidence of complete and utter ignorance of the vast majority of your own country.

Either way, it sort of works against the narrative people hold here of being so in the know about everything.  And it makes me LOL.  I, for one, will never say that we Midwesterners are always nice - especially when the regional snobbery of the Coasters comes out.  I will bitch slap that down EVERY time.  And I'm guessing that all of you nasties told the OP everything they needed to know - namely that it probably isn't worth it for him/her to move.  [/quote]

Both sides of my family are from Milwaukee. My better educated cousins got out.[/quote]

If it made them happy, great.  But it doesn't make the ones who stayed mentally deficient suckers, either.[/quote]
