Anyone else here want to leave SD for SF?

Couldn’t resist with this footnote . . . San Francisco made the top 100+ things on a list of things white people really like:

(Here’s the full list
:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/full-list-of-stuff-white-people-like/ )

San Francisco is one of the top US destinations for white people in terms of both travel and living. It is universally agreeable and is a safe discussion topic for any situation.

The city is considered one of the world’s premiere locations for white person research.

White people like to vacation in San Francisco because it has beautiful architecture, fantastic food, and it is near the water. They like to live in San Francisco because of its abundance of Non Profit Organizations, Expensive Sandwiches, Wine, political outlook, and most importantly its diversity.

Since many white people either live in, plan to move to, or closely identify with San Francisco it is imperative that you know how best to deal with them.

The City of San Francisco has a very multicultural population that ranges from white to gay to Asian. Within white culture this known as “ideal diversity” for its provision of exotic restaurants while simultaneously preserving property values. The presence of gays and Asians is imperative as it two provides two of the key resources most necessary for white success and happiness.

However, it is important to be aware of the fact that regions outside of San Francisco feature many people who are not white, gay or Asian. They are greatly appreciated during the census, but white people are generally very happy that they stay in places like Oakland and Richmond. This enables white people to feel good about living near people of diverse backgrounds without having to directly deal with troublesome issues like income gaps or schooling.

Still, the presence of other minorities are welcomed by white people for so many more reasons than just statistics! Much in the way that white people in Brooklyn feel a strong and unfounded connection with The Notorious BIG, white people in San Francisco feel the need to identify with rappers from the East Bay. Interestingly enough, the further they venture from San Francisco, the stronger their need to represent their region.

“Oh man, I went to the Too Short show last night. So hyphy man, so hyphy. You should come by some time and we’ll ghost ride the Prius.”

When you are presented with statements like this, the best response is to say “Berkeley is close to Oakland,” and the white person will likely nod and throw up some sort of west side hand sign.

Though it is exceptionally easy to put someone from San Francisco in a good mood, there are some caveats. When talking to a white person who lives in San Francisco, it is best not to bring up New York City. Though they live in a world class city, San Franciscans have a crippling inferiority complex about New York and even hinting at that will make them very sad or very defensive.

Fortunately, there is a fool-proof method for quickly returning the conversation to a positive, trust-building tone. No matter how much you have offended someone from San Francisco, you can always make them feel better by asking them how they feel about Southern California. They will instantly talk of how it is filled with crime, pollution, hegemonic culture, and the wrong kind of white people: “I swear California is like two separate countries, and I am so thankful that I live in the cultural center of the West Coast.” This will allow them to reassert their superiority and leave the conversation with a positive feeling about themselves and about you.

Sounds familiar.

I lived in the bay area for 23 years, specifically in a suburb of San Jose. Now, I’ve been living in SD for the past 4 years. Frankly, because I couldn’t hack it up there.

But, watching that Dockers San Francisco commercial awhile back has made me interested in moving back to the bay though.

luchabee,
wow, pretty ridiculous and inaccurate stereotype having lived in the bay area myself for 6 years on the peninsula and spending much time in the city. The mocking tone of your post of my alma-mater Stanford as having queer studies reveals a clear ignorance of that institution’s well regarded educational programs (you could only dream of attending apparently), and a hatred towards gays, but that is your problem I suppose. Besides, the Bay area ain’t all liberal, after all, particularly Stanford, home of the conservative think tank Hoover Institution where the “expert” of Russian studies, Ms Rice, spent some time acquiring her so-called expertise. Perhaps your characterization of the bay area is because you are not a professional and therefore don’t interact or know few professionals. IMO, the city is full of entrepreneurs, very interesting, dynamic, diverse and fun, and I would not hesitate to raise a family in the city or on the peninsula.

My goodness! “Queer studies”? Pride parade? How old are you luchabee? I think the last time I tried to cut someone down by calling them gay was when I was like 12 or something.

You probably don’t realize it, but you are the perfect example of a culturally stunted San Diegan.
