[quote=Anonymous]Another bethesda person here who is oblivious to the rat race.  The PP comment about the MLM cracked me up because that was such a thing when I lived in my hometown in a non-coastal state but I’ve never met anyone here who does that.  If you feel like people aren’t friendly,  be more friendlly yourself.  I’d say 80% of the time people respond very positively.  I’m the person that will compliment someone in the grocery line on her dress, or ask someone what their dogs name is and how old he is.   The parents at our public school are mostly super friendly and I feel like I know a fair number of them.

I do hate the traffic but try to use the buses and metro. No metro in my hometown and only addicts take the bus system, so that’s a plus for the DMV!  I also hate how stuff for kids books up and it seems like it’s hard to do anything like sports “casually” here —- but I think that’s also now true in a lot of exurbs and rural areas.  I see teams from rural PA and VA at these travel tournaments that look way more intense than our teams so I guess sports at least is pretty competitive in a lot of places.[/quote]
