That shot of the High Line almost makes me want to get raped by the $12 beers and hop in the jacuzzi at The Standard’s stupid/awesome rooftop bar. Almost.
Dutch Crunch forever (SF is a great food town)! I was mostly joking, but as far as major cities go you can’t really deny that San Francisco IS beautiful, and it does have its perks.
I wouldn’t move back, but if I worked in the tech industry I wouldn’t hate it.
The gay coworker of a friend once shot down someone’s idea in a meeting by saying it “wasn’t the most beautiful flower in the bouquet of originality.” After being complimented on what an amazing insult it was he responded with, “thank you, I spend a lot of time crafting really beautiful insults.”
“Who are we? Where are we going in life? What is the meaning of all of this? These are questions Lil Sebastian never had to answer…because he was a horse.”
Went to HS in LA (still go back regularly) and college (plus a few years) in NY. I’ll agree that the weather is better, but driving is a nightmare from which you never wake, and other than sushi and Mexican, foodwise the two are basically the same. NYC has way better nightlife (better concerts/bars/clubs and you don’t have to worry about how you’re getting home) and sorry, but I’ll take Euro supermodels who’ve been on the cover of Vogue swarming downtown during fashion week (and fashion parties, generally) over some struggling “actress” (we have those here, too) any day of the week.
Natives don’t give a shit though, only transplants (I’m originally from our nation’s most beautiful and perfect city, San Francisco) ever have this argument.

I would watch gay divorce court.

I recently held up a flight from JFK to LAX so I could go to the Shake Shack at the other end of the terminal. It’s been weighing on me ever since.
