[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I found people in Rockville far more humble and down to earth. They make jokes about Rockville. They have no problem with whether Rockville is considered not hip or not cool. They'd simply laugh and say well I'm not cool either and be on their way. TP feels much more judgmental. Its cliquey and the classes/sub areas tends to stick together. The obsession with the magnets is disturbing. [/quote]

Agree on the judgmental in TP — very much so.  However, the magnets are largely the obsession of people who do not live in TP (and who are on this list serve).  Most kids in TP are not in the magnets and they generally are into interesting things and do great.

I live in TP and don't think we are an overly judgmental group (except about Republicans). I find people to be pretty self-deprecating and think it's so super ridiculous the amount of angst there is about developing a parking lot or cutting down a tree.  We even have our own little version of the Onion - Takoma Torch - which is soley focused on Takoma Park being sooo "Takoma Park".[/quote]
