Look, nobody likes to have their little bubble pricked, but the kind of senseless worship for somewhere that really has little to justify the real estate values experienced in recent times, is just plain silly. San Diego is OK comparatively speaking, but there’s nothing special about it. The weather is nice, but as soon as a cloud hovers near the sun, everyone is terrified, because they don’t want to face up to the truth. It’s classic Cinderella syndrome, and strong reactions against hearing the truth is so symptomatic of that. Hate me all want, but I have no special interest in saying anything other than what I truly believe to be the case. If everyone said, “Oh, you know its OK, it has its good and bad points like everywhere”, I can live with that …but making somewhere out to be paradise when it clearly isn’t is delusional, and then getting upset when told otherwise is childish.[/quote]
Dude, relax. I already pricked my own bubble (check out my username). Also, we all know you’re an ass (check out your username).[/quote]
You really fell for it, didn’t you …dude?[/quote]
Yep, I sure did. Dude, you’d think that by now, I’d … like … know better. But some times it’s fun to feed the troll.
ParticipantBack to jstoesz original thesis …
Based on a comparison of home prices versus income he has concluded that Californians are irresponsible.However, upon objectively looking at the evidence, one could just as easily surmise that people in Minneapolis in aggregate are miserly tightwads.

Participant[quote=Ima Nass]My wife and I thought about moving to San Diego. Drove around some of the so-called villages, and La Jolla …and left. San Diego is just a smaller version of LA, but with more dangerous ramps onto freeways. The Gaslamp District, Italian district, and Old Town just don’t feel real. The atmosphere is more touristy than lived-in. IMHO the Bay area is the only place in California that has a good feel factor. When people don’t feel the need to convince themselves of the greatness, or otherwise of a place then the place is accepted just for what it is …good, or bad. When the reverse is happening it’s because there remains this nagging doubt. It as if soCal is in a tussle with itself over it’s identity.[/quote]
Youra Nass –
Love the username ! It says it all. To each his own.
BTW, you’ve obviously never used the freeway on ramps east of downtown LA towards Pasadena. They have stop signs at the end of the 30-foot long on-ramp and about 15 feet from stop sign to the end of the lane in which to merge. Nothing remotely as dangerous in San Diego.
