NYC is the capital of the world (or something like it). Arlington is... pretty much nobody except locals knows what it is.  You like to dwell on minuscule differences between S and N Arlington but then you get upset at the mere mention of many orders of magnitude greater difference. Talk about being a big fish in a miniature pond.[/quote]

Here's the difference between me and you. I'm in a city I enjoy, responding to a question on a DC-oriented board that actually relates to DC. You're clearly bitter (and a self-described poor person, otherwise you'd be living in your perceived mecca) and unhappy, wishing/dreaming/hoping that everyone agrees with you that NYC "is the capital of the world" (what a joke) and can't comprehend a conversation that doesn't involve said comparison. Your overblown views on Manhattan suggest that you're the one with the problem, not me. I'm not a "big fish" in any pond - there are certainly far wealthier and more important people than me in both Arlington and, certainly, in Washington, D.C. (You know, last i hard - the president of the United States lives here.) You, however, are a pathetic fish in any pond. Can't afford Manhattan, likely can't afford DC either, and clearly can't accept that. Good luck catching the $1 Bolt Bus back up to Penn Station.[/quote]

Wow, you know me so well! Here is the thing, since you obviously care: most of the year, I live in a big city in Europe. I absolutely wouldn't live anywhere else. Even there, though, NYC considered the capital of the world. That has nothing to do with what I think about it (I lived there for almost a decade and love it)  just a fact. And DC is just kind of a smallish town with a lot of monuments. I don't resent it, but that's because I don't have to spend too much time here.[/quote]
