I love all the people adamantly defending DC. I’m totally with you on this one, Catie.
I lived there for over a year and was baffled by the amount of young people living in my building in dupont (my rent was around 1200 in a converted 3br), working out at Vida, shopping at whole foods, brunching at founding farmers…I never understood how they could afford that lifestyle. Even with a salary in the 50s, after taxes, there isn’t much leftover for leisure activities – especially if you’re trying to save $. You have to be making at least 70k to enjoy all the incredible food, shopping, and activities DC has to offer, but I always had a sneaking suspicion most of those people were being subsidized by the bank of mommy & daddy.
Somewhat relieved I don’t fit into any of these categories. Though I’m sure whatever you have to say about finance/accounting/IT & consulting chicks is way worse
If you’re going to hook up with a coworker, just make sure they work on a different floor. Or preferably in a different building. Or better yet, at a different company entirely.
Baltimore deserves a little more recognition (cue an Omar joke). This entire city is almost entirely made up of post grads…which means a constant flow of cheap rent, food, beer, and entertainment. Trust me. I took it for granted for way too long. I lived in DC right out of college and that place is soul sucking…and way too fucking expensive.

This is truly the only major post grad problem I still have yet to adjust to.
THANK GOD. I thought I was the only one
I don’t know what I expected, but I incorrectly assumed this concept would be way funnier
Is he single? …PGP.
This explains why I have every intention of watching the US games, but always get too drunk to remember the outcome.
is watercress kosher?

Pretty much anywhere on the east coast, “did you go to Maryland?” is a valid question.

Only a fellow MOT would understand
Completely agree. However, in my experience, bitchy girls, ass kissers, and airheads are also still somehow thriving in corporate America.
Finally, someone said it.
As an Orioles fan, we appreciate the empathy.
