You Belong in San Francisco

You crave an eclectic, urban environment. You're half California, half NYC. You're open minded, tolerant, and secretly think you're the best. People may dismiss you as a hippie, but you're also progressive, interesting, and rich!

Did I ever mention how much I HATE San Francisco/the Bay Area? I belong right here in Los Angeles. Some day I might write up a rant on why people in the Bay Area are incredibly rude (a few friends up there excepted). The whole attitude up there can be be defined by one thing that was actually said to me: "Oh, you're from L.A.? I'm SORRY." in a really insulting tone. It really feels like they look down on anyone that's not them (Los Angeles especially, but not exclusively). Personally I've found people in L.A. to be MUCH friendlier! I'm not saying everyone up there is like that, but it's definitely the prevailing attitude.

The Bay Area is a nice place to visit for cons and things like that, but hell would have to literally freeze over for me to even consider living there again.

About the only true thing about this is the half NYC part, being an ex-NYer.:) The quiz was pretty flawed, though. How could I choose between 5 different bands when I'd only ever heard anything by 1 of them and didn't even like that one. Some of us gave up on the radio back in 1991-92 and never looked back.;)
