Most people had no idea; some knew but didn’t dare speak of it; and then there were those few who had been voicing the truth that was proven a few weeks ago: Boston sucks. Throughout its long, and often embarrasing past, Boston has somehow kept the appearance of a major tourist destination. I can see only two reasons why this has stayed true. One, people still connect Boston with the birth of America; two, the Samuel Adams brewery. But if one looks closer at Boston, you notice the trend of suckage that Boston has been portraying for decades. Here are a few examples:
1. First up is the most obvious suckery, The attack of the Mooninite LiteBrites. We all know the story, we all know that Boston overreacted. Well, the officials involved and the Sixf Man still seem to think the reaction was on par. But honestly, how do you shut down the eleventh largest metropolitan area in the US because of a toy that every 5 year old has played with? I understand that we live in the post-9/11 era where everything has to be seen as a terrorist threat. I understand that the old men running Boston had no idea what a Mooninite was (and probably still don’t), but when you are told that you just closed the city because of a cartoon character, how do you blame the network that airs the show? Especially considering the same LiteBrites were in major cities across the nation. There were at least 8 LiteBrites in Manhattan alone. Everything would have been fine if the men in charge would have just apologized after the “scare” and said that they overreacted to a non-threat which is better than underreacting to legitmate threat. Instead, they demanded millions of dollars from Cartoon Network, and eventually the head of that Network stepped down. Now many people will say that Boston made a mistake during this incident but its the first time it happened. Wrong, Boston has been overracting for centuries, which leads to my next point.
2. The Boston Massacre. Some stupid Bostonian started yelling at a British officer for not paying his barber bill. The bill had actually been payed, however. The Bostonian keeps yelling until one of the officer’s friends hits the man over the head, rightly so. People see the incident, claim that the British troop is mean and needs to go to the dentist. A crowd gathers, more soldiers are called in, and Bostonians start hurling rocks and ice at the soldiers. Now the soldiers (who are made up mostly of Bostonians themselves) get mad, claim they heard someone yell “Fire!” and end up killing 5 people. After this event, the leaders of Boston have been forced to take a secret oath swearing to overreact to every incident large or small.
3. Clam Chowdah. Boston’s clam chowder is nothing special. Everytime you see a show on the Food Network that showcases Boston cuisine they always talk about the damn chowder. Boston’s chowder is not that good. I worked in a seafood restaurant for 3 years. The clam chowder there was voted best chowder in the country 14 years in a row by a major food magazine. This restaurant was founded by a chef who was born and raised in Tampa, FL. The headquarters of that restaurant are still in Tampa. They have a total of zero properties outside the state of Florida. Why does Boston still get to act like they have some special monopoly on clam chowder? I officially claim I have the country’s best boiled hot dogs.
4a. The Red Sox. The main reason I hate the Red Sox is becuase of the balligerent Boston fans that insist on yelling “Go Sohox!” Learn to freakin talk you degenerate bastards. I can only hope that the Red Sox go eighty more years before winning another World Series.
4b. The Gyro Ball. There have been over 1000 pitchers that have been taught how to throw the Gyro Ball; like the clam chowder, its nothing special. It is a glorified slider.
5. Ted Kennedy. This is Ted Kennedy’s story: He was at a party in 1969 near Martha’s Vineyard. He offered to drive a nice, young woman home. On the way home he accidentally flipped his car off of a bridge into Poucha Pond. Kennedy says he managed to get out of the car and tried many times to help the woman escape. Unfortunately, the car was upside down underwater and the woman was unable to get out. Now the story starts to get interesting. After Kennedy reached the bank, he walked back to the location of the party and asked his cousin and a friend to go back to the pond with him. There was a working telephone in the house where the party took place, but no one called for help. After all three men were unsuccessful in getting the woman out of Teddy’s car, he decided to go back to the hotel he was staying at. According to Kennedy, the ferry he needed to take to get back to his hotel was not in service by this time, so he decided to swim across the channel. Unlikely. When he finally did get back to town, he called the police right away and reported what happened, right? Nope, he called his lawyer. Seriously. The next day Kennedy’s car and the body of the young woman were retrieved. Kennedy was sentenced to two months in jail, but of course he never actually served those two months. So what did the great people of Boston, and all of Massachusets do to punish the obviously lying politician? They elected him to 7 consecutive terms as a Senator. Brilliant people he represents.
I know many of you reading this are probably in shock at the truth that you just uncovered, but its okay. As long as you stay away from the city of Boston there is no way you can suck as much as it. I will not lose hope for the city, though. I would like to see it do a 180 and start getting cool; they could legalize prostitution, or elect a mayor with a face tattoo. But until either of those things happen, Boston will suck more than any other city in this country.
Until next time, onward and upward…
well said

Right on man. Boston blows. Third rate city that consists of upper class blueblood liberal stick up the ass holier than thou douchebags, high fivin’ jackass Dane Cook lovin’ frat boy cocks, and gutter level Southie white trash. As expensive as New York and about 1/100000000000000 of the coolness. Why anyone would want to live in this doofus whitebread village is beyond me. Wow you’re New England’s metropolis – the cultural equivalent of winning a silver medal at the Special Olympics. Fuck Boston.

What does “balligerent” mean. Oh, wait… you mean belligerent? Perhaps you should consider coming to Boston and attending one of our fine universities (as opposed to the third-rate Southern trash school you currently attend). In Boston, they’ll teach you how to spell! I’m not sure where anyone from Florida, the cultural nadir of the civilized world, gets off talking trash about anyone else’s city. Fuck you, retard.

Yeah, Colin, that’s all Boston really has going for it– college students.
When I think Beantown I immediately think of fucking idiotic drunken, irritating Sox fans (with equally annoying accents) bitching about the Yankees and/or their pathetic lives. Boston is an overhyped city full of wasteful, delusional college kids, shitty politicians, white trash, and uppity yuppies who hate everyone that doesn’t like Boston or the Sox.
And that’s all you people know what to say when someone criticizes Boston. You reply with “fuck you, retard.”
What a shithole.

not only that but the Shitty things it trys to cover up. for there lack of parking and good roads they try to be slick and say “we are the walking city” fuck off with that i want to get there today. its shitty public transportation. its retarded over budget by the BILLIONS big dig project. for having alot of schools it sure has alot of idiot engineers. hmm lets merge 4 lanes in to one, lets make it so when you are going the wrong way it is physically impossible to make a u-turn for 40 miles. boston is the biggest disappointment i have ever imagined. the first day i got here and opend up a map to drive around in i was supirsed to see that the map was to scale this is a shit tiny city. in florida there is this place called “wanna do city” where little kids pretend to be grown ups in a miniture city. that is what boston is. a bunch of stupid kids pretending to be grown ups in a tiny city. and the restaurants besides the Italian food which i admit is very delicious, it has nothing else! every stupid restaurants has the same “bostons best ______” banner in front and it all is shit. i am stuck here 2 more AWFUL years in a city with horrible weather, gray skys that make me want to slit my wrist to see color (lewis black joke) and idiots walking around. true story.. after the patriots lose they all became super assholes. someone i know asked a man “how is your day going” (at a store) and he replys “fuck you the patriots lost” just because this nothing of a city has only sports going for them doesnt give them the right to think they are superior in any way shape or form. its not even the BOSTON patriats its new england assholes. anyone who claims this is an actualy city has never been to chicago, new york, Miami, or anywhere really. wow. this is pure hatred for this horrible city. nothing makes sense here. nothing. except for leaving as soon as you can.

Every American city has it’s charms and drawbacks- and rabid sports fans, be them from Boston, New York of Chicago, no doubt have their fare share of assholes. But anyone who is so infantile as do dismiss and entire city and all it’s inhabitants betrays their own stupidity..
FYI, the Boston massacre may have been turned into propaganda to support the cause for independence, but that- and much of the Massachusetts liberal spirit is what gave rise to our independence from Britian.
If you want an asshole, visit NY- You ewant really cool people? Visit Chicago.

I’ve lived in Boston my entire life and it’s one of the most bitter places around. This piece of shit city has frozen my bones; I feel like I’m a 90 year old man and I’m in my twenties. It feels like its cold here 10 months in the year, rains for about 2 months and maybe if possible we get a week or two of warmth and sun without those wet, “pissy” or humid days. It’s a money sucking mecca Tolls will haunt you in every corner, The Tobin or Airport tolls will cost you up to $3.00. The public transportation will rip a new asshole in your wallet, $1.70- $2.00 a ride, or you can spend anywhere from $60- $90 a month for a monthly pass. Everyone walks around here like you owe them something. We’re polluted with fucking North Face jacket, Ugg Boot Wearing bitches like they’re in an army of clones or Boston cock “sucka’s”. The T smells like crusty ass cracks and bum piss. You’ll think “wow this city has it all and its so close to everyone” but you’ll soon realize how expensive everything gets- you cant do anything without having to buy ’something’. You’ll barely find any parks, (or parking) or much greenery except for on Park Street which was recently cleaned up because people would go there to go smoke crack under blankets. Retard college kids are everywhere like they own and know everything. Good luck trying to start a conversation with people you don’t know- they’ll look at you like, ” what the hell do you want from me.” Most people are bitter because they have permanent frost bite in their ass, not to forget all the wind tunnels will make your hands want to fall off from the frigid Boston streets. Construction is ALWAYS going on for pointless skyscrapers and tunnels. Since its such a gay and tight little city, most apartments or houses are near major attractions therefore you’ll always here bums screaming, sirens, drunk tarts or a fucking car horn. Oh yeah, the roads are basically an entire INdy-500; everyone has somewhere to be in such a fucking hurry. I can literally go on and on on how bitter this city has made ME-
I want to go somewhere with open space and constant weather. & skate without a cop giving me a $200.00 ticket
Anyone ever been to south CA.
Fuck the sox- they’re just a stupid tradition for drunks.

The WORST 4 years of my life were spent going to college in Boston. College is suppose to be fun, But it was 4 years of hell. The people are assholes, People don’t smile and aren’t at all friendly, I got beat up at a concert for doing NOTHING by some white trash townie, and when the cops came they told me to, “Get Lost” or I was gonna go to jail, THE POLICE THERE ARE EXTREMELY CROOKED, I wish that place AND everyone in it would burn to the ground..
By the way, if you are from Boston and are reading this, PLEASE STAY THE FUCK OUT OF CALIFORNIA, WE DON’T WANT YOU HERE.

Boston is the biggest shit-hole city in the country.
It’s nothing but a bunch of arrogant and obnoxious people who can’t even speak correctly. It takes them damn near a hundred years to win a World Series, and then they act like their kings of the world.
And it could not be any more obvious that it was rigged for the Red Sox to win the two recent World Series titles. Hey Boston, try winning a World Series that’s legit.

I found this page because I saw something for people who hate FLA to vent about, and I was looking to see if there were similar ones for such a “perfect city” like some Bostonian said. There are. I guess there are blogs about people hating every city.
I’ve never been to Boston, but I guess I wouldn’t fit in. I don’t care for the jackets in May and August. By the time February rolls around I’m looking forward to highs approaching 70. I’m from New Orleans, a cultural mecca, but a poor place that I am considering leaving, at least for while I am in my 20s. I’m just sick of Boston sports and that sucks to hear that people up north are not friendly. Wow.

“You guys need some lifes, Boston is the only place on earth to be.” – Tim
That’s the thinking that makes Boston the shittiest city I have ever been to. People think it’s great. I know a subway system that never is on time is nice. I know a city that shuts down at 11 PM is nice, bars rarely stay open to 2 AM. A know a city that’s only positive attribute are the transient educated workers who leave after 5 years. I know a city that has people so pathetic that their only love is a shitty sports team that’s about as classy as a Prostitute without any teeth. I know this city is great because the people are mean, ugly, arrogant, and can’t pronounce their Rrrrrrrrrrrs. Screw Boston. So glad I am moving. Boston competes with New York City, but it’s got nothing on New York. Boston’s got nothing on Newark, New Jersey.

Don’t get me started…what is there to *like* about Boston? The “natives” are ignorance incarnate, “Southie” is the embarrassment of the nation, and the Red Sox are just an excuse for dumb people to get together and act even dumber. The cost of living is outrageous and you don’t even get anything for all the cost. Nothing seems to work, the city services are appalling due to in-breeding and nepotism. Worst of all is the rudeness and disrespect people have for one another. Boston is a soul-less and heartless place…and I can’t wait to move out of here next month.

27 May 09 at 10:08 am
assston and shockcorridor took the words right out of my mouth. I can’t even articulate how angry and frustrated I am with living here. I’m saving money like crazy to move out of here as soon as humanly possible… which would be easier if the cost of living wasn’t so unbelievably steep, as D. James pointed out. At risk of being repetitive: the weather here is atrocious, the T is the worst mass transit system I’ve ever ridden (the 1% of the year that it’s not cold and raining, I walk the 4 miles home from work instead of using that death trap… and it usually takes less time, esp during Red Sox season), everything is dirty and grey, the sidewalks are covered with trash & bums trying to assault you, and EVERYTHING (rent, food, event tickets) is overpriced. Not to mention the world’s most unappealing accent and the rudest people in the US… and I’ve lived in several states / visited more. My lease is up in 3 months and I’m counting the hours.

it makes me very happy to hear all these comments. ive only been here for a couple weeks and im already miserable. all the things stated above were realized within a couple days for me. im stuck here for a year. and i dont even think ive seen the worst of it. im sooo sad. im staying in the south were the sun shines.

I’m a Boston native, don’t live there anymore thank god. And I will be more than happy to express the plain fact that bostonians have to come to terms with: New York is a far better city than Boston. Call me a traitor, I don’t give a damn, it’s not my opinion, it’s just the simple truth.

27 Jul 09 at 12:33 pm
I’m leaving Boston/Cambridge in five days, and I can’t wait. I’ve been here six months and I’m surprised I haven’t had a heart attack yet – and I’m young. I wake up every day with my teeth clenched, wanting to hurt someone.Everything negative everyone else has posted is 100% correct. Not only are the streets badly engineered and unlabeled, the drivers are completely nuts – they will honk at you for making a turn that they don’t want you to make, even when they can just go around you- like I owe it to you to change my route, assholes! I’ve seen such crazy shit here that’s a mild example. I’ve never met such entitled, obnoxious people in my life. They’re not liberal, they’re classist snobs. I think they passed gay marriage for the revenue alone – nobody here does anything out of the goodness of their hearts – they’d have to have hearts for that! These people are cheap cheap cheap. No free wireless anywhere, no coffee refills – are you kidding? No, there’s not one bit of good intentions and generosity in the air anywhere. It’s impossible to live here if you aren’t from here already or have money – impossible. I’m gay, but I’m getting out of here ASAP. I’d rather have, you know, a job, a place that I can actually afford – and be able to eat – who cares if you can get married if you starve on the streets? Who would want to marry one of these assholes anyway? They’re just about the most sexually unappealing population on the planet.
Sick of this shithole
30 Jul 09 at 4:07 pm
What can I say that hasn’t been said already?!!
I lived in Boston for about 2 years (finishing up my Audio Production Degree in NEIA); At first I dug it because it was a change from the little town I was living, but within a month I began to quickly realize how reTAHded Bostonians are. Their snobbery is second to none.
The T always is fucking crowded with all these petulant freshman college dickwads who think they own the fucking world because they dont live with mum and pop anymore (yet still run to the ATM to see if that money went through..so they can go shopping at H&M/Urban Outfitters to by those FRESH new yellow skinny jeans!!)
I got tired of waking up at 5am almost EVERY GODDAMN morning listening to fucking construction outside my window while my girl and I were trying to get sleep, tired of stupid little TROLLUPS with their fuck me pumps going clickety clack at 3am and screaming like its MTV spring break..WOOOOOOOOOO!!!! My girl at the time and I used to throw our glass and silverware at them btw. We got really mean for so long to others, eventually we turn on each other. See, when we both lived in Atlanta (where we are both from), both of us used to be such happy people..damn shame dude.
Also I hate the fact that PEOPLE DON’T LOOK UP WHEN THEY WALK!! They fuckin run into you, don’t say ‘excuse me’ and just keep going like you weren’t even there. And usually that comes from those well to do yuppies with the wingtip shoes and tweed jackets who think they REALLY live in England (Ive heard a few faux Brit accents for sure). They do what I liked to call ‘The Bostonian trot’…which is a run that looks as though the sky is falling above them, so they duck while crossing the street going to the T.
Another pet peeve, is people hardly look you in the eye. I consider this a sign of SEVERE direspect. In the south, you are taught to respect people, and with that, you look them in the eye when you speak. I swear, with all that so called ‘liberal’ attitude going on, parents forgot to teach their kids RESPECT growing up and replaced it with SOX douchebaggery. Fuck you. Mom and dad apparently didn’t give enougb ass whippings to show you to fucking respect your fellow man and your elders. retAHds
Not to mention how incredibly irresponsible and the extreme lack of common sense the Bostonian has. I swear 3 houses (one on each side, and one behind) near where I lived burned to the fucking ground almost due to some dick leaving an oven on or something. I can’t count how many times the cops or the fire depAHtment came and everyone had to stand outside in their pajamas because of this shit.
Seriously, I could go on and on. People told me how vapid Los Angeles (I grew up in SanDiego, totally different area) was…it had NOTHING on Boston. Going to College in Los angeles was actually FUN and I made GREAT contacts in the music biz..Boston? They told me (at NEIA) “You are going to have to go somewhere else in order to find a job in your field, there’s nothing here” BIG RED LIGHT WARNING RIGHT THERE. DONT GO TO BOSTON!
If ANYONE thinks about Boston for college or to live…RECONSIDER YOUR OPTIONS AND BEWARE!!! THERE IS NOTHING BUT MISERY COMING YOU WAY!!!
If armageddon were to come, please–take Massachusettes first!! God was DEFINITELY playing a HUGE prank on us by creating that fuckin crooked ass, snobby, blue collar bullshit, college retard, bitching townie, horrible fucking city!

I would hate to hear that annoying accent on her. The people here are trash and everywhere else i’ve been is ten times better. even boring nashville!!! I can’t wait to get back to the West Coast though!

Thank god! finally someone comes out and says it! BOSTON SUCKS!!!! I cant even start to explain how horribly i despise boston, i have nothing but pure and raw passionate hatred for boston and anything boston!!! Im a born and raised new yorker, and damn fuckin proud of it! Boston is jealous of New york’s global popularity, NYC surpasses boston in everything, Bostonians are wannabe New yorkers when you think about it, they only hate on us because they envy us, makes sense…the first sign of jealousy is hatred. Now, the Red sox, the god awful red sox……im ofcourse a Yankee fan, the biggest one around, and it is in my duty to hate the Red sox, its in my DNA to hate the red sox, but thats beisides the point, The red sox suck for numerous reasons: There fans are fucking douche bags, they rant and rave about how good the red sox are just because they popped out with 2 world series after 86 years, that still sucks! There fans are unloyal, why u ask? ill gladly tell you…before 2004 where was the red sox fan base??? They only just recently started poppin up out from underneath there rocks because the red sox won the world series, when they win theyre fans, when they lose you’ll never see a boston fan again until they win again, how is that being a so called “passionate” fan??? Us yankee fans, through the highs and lows stand by our team no matter what, another group of true fans are Cubs fans, only because there team hasent won a WS longer than boston did and still wear there caps and jerseys proudly…Yankee and Cubs fans are the most loyal fans in baseball. The red sox also suck because theyre obviously jealous of the Yankees, it doesnt take a rocket scientist to realize that, we got 26 rings…they got 7…..the evidence is clearly there, read it and weap boston fans! Now, fenway park….that old, wooden, raggety shithole of a stadium is nothing more than a death-trap waiting to happen, one gust of wind and the park is blowing into the bay, that place is unsafe and is a health hazard with all the 80 year old rat shit encrusted on the floors of its entire foundation, not to metion the green monster and how cheap it was to build it, whats the point in having a 35 foot wall in a baseball stadium? They put it there because they wanna be cheap and lessen the chance of homerns going out…dont believe me? here’s a little history lesson that even most boston fans dont know. When fenway was built, the majority of baseball players in that year were right handed hitter, meaning homeruns would most likely travel out over left field, so boston put the wall there to decrease the chances of homeruns hit out of the park. Again, once more about boston red sox fans, or should i say, occasional fans? They claim to be the biggest and most ruthless sports fans in the world, but they obviously never been to a yankee/red sox game in the bronx, being a red sox fan in new york is like a chihuaha walking into a rottweiler’s dog house, they might as well have committed suicide because the only way theyre leaving NYC is in a body bag or the back of an ambulance. If i do remember correctly back in 2002 a red sox fan got shot in the face outside yankee stadium because of the most likely fact of being a red sox fan…..a magazine i was reading in a patient waiting room while at the doctor even stated that over about a 40 year time span of yankee/red sox games at yankee stadium said that an estimated amount of about 560 assault and fatality cases were filed by red sox fans after being at a yankee game in the bronx…..who’s the bad asses now boston? Us brutal and ruthless Yankee fans who beat the shit out of you guys when you come in our territory? or your fans who might throw one piece of popcorn at a yankee fan at fenway once every year? thats a hard one huh guys? Dont claim to be something your evidently not and try to seem tough when your soooo not! Ive been to about 20 yankee games at fenway park and the most red sox fans do is boo…..ow, that really hurt…..new york’s a tough city fellaz, i think we can handle a boo here and there,lol. Now, on to the other boston teams….i dont wanna stay here and take up anymore time so im just gunna make it short and simple, The Patriots suck because there definition of winning is cheating, the celtics suck, well, because theyre from boston, and same with the bruins….face it bostonians….Your beloved city S-U-C-K-S!!!!!!! It sucks more dick than Jenna Jameson! lol. Youre in no way, shape or form on any equal level of popularity with new york, we got almost 18 million people and you guys got about 500,000…try to make a move, you’d either be really brave or tremedously stupid if you wanted so start a city/rival war…if it ever came to that. We’re world famous, you can go to a small tribal village in Africa, full of people who have never seen the outside world and ask someone there if they know about new york and they’ll all say yes! all of em’. Boston, sorry, but this is my verdict and im sticking to it, gotta problem with it then visit me in New York and try to say something….I DARE YA!!!!

10 Sep 09 at 4:19 pm
oh yeah, one more thing why the yankees are clearly better than the red sox……our players…..The Yankees are the only team in any sport, out of all teams in the world, to have so many of the best players, fact! We had Dimaggio, marris, mantle, berra, ford, jackson, the babe, lou gehrig, rizzuto, dickey, winfield, boggs, guidry, bernie williams, tino martinez, munson, mattingly…..the list goes on and on and on and on!!!!! who did boston have but a few decent players……NYC is the baseball capital of the world, and home to the Legendary gods of baseball….THE NEW YORK MOTHAFUCKIN YANKEES!!!!!!!

I grew up in Massachusetts, learning that if you leave New England-your leaving civilization. -crazy right? But correct. If it wasn’t for Boston, the United States wouldn’t even exist and we would be kissing a queens ass. I know we talk weird up hear but you people down south( outside New England)…embarrassment to this country. Boston is smallish but growing wicked fast Turing into a strong global city and modernizing. But a city that I never wanted to leave was London. London had it over New York ten-fold.

hmm well, i live in a town right outside of boston and let me tell you everyone is extremely unfriendly here. unless you act like an arrogant prick your not going to make any friends. its all about being tough guys up here, everyones like that. their all about talking big, and trying to sound like they are so much better than you. this reminds me of the time i took the T into boston, and we asked one of the subway employees which stop we should get off at… she said “does it look like i care im not your personal escort”…. what a fucking low class bitch. people like this work all over boston.
and remember, you heard this from a boston native!! bostonians suck!!!! but i still love the city.

[...] for the Boston-haters out there who to this day continue to comment on this blog even though the posts are over two years old. The new layout isn’t completley finished yet either, so [...]

I’m so glad I found this blog because guess what? I hate Boston too! This city is a joke. I’ve been to Philly and thought it was better than this $hithole. I’m originally from NYC and came up to live with my boyfriend. Man what a difference between NYC and Boston. Boston can’t compare. Sure, NYC has its problems, but Boston by far is worst. Everything from their sorry excuse for a Subway system, to their ugly, no sense of fashion people. What is it with people up here looking down when they walk, avoiding eye contact at all cost? And there is just nothing happening up here, whatsoever, the saddest part is the highlight of my day is grocery shopping. Also, people up here so racist. Sure, there’s racism in NYC and all the US but man is it overt up here. Also, there is no night life what so ever. And their accents are just horrible. People make fun of New Yorkers or southerners for their accents, but Baaahhstonians have horrible accents. There meet up groups also suck too. I can’t wait for the day I leave Boston, I told my bf he’s the only thing keeping me here, should we part ways I’m out like a light!!!!!!

I have lived in Boston almost 3 years.. It’s definitely been a mixed bag. Here are the things I hate:
-The Green Line T- crowded, slow and horrible
-BU girls.. UGGS, mini-skirts and blackberries galore. Obnoxious!
-The HORRIBLE cold weather!! Who likes winter 8 months out of the year?? Not to mention the wind, and grey skies, day after day.. Winters here make you want to kill yourself.
-HIGH rent prices, run-down buildings and slumlords who don’t care about their property.
The only good things I can say is that Boston has a fun nightlife and lots of young people. It also has decent public transportation. That’s about it.

I am from Boston but grew up part in the Carribean (because of my dad’s job) and part in the northshore of boston. I lived way too long in the northshore and now live in Brookline but always worked or went to school in Boston. I realized at 16, while working in fanuiel hall that Boston was boring and the people were rude. Over the past 20 years I have spoken to many people about this and they all say that bostonians are not friendly people. As a matter of fact, you can tell right away that someone is “not from around here” because they are friendly. Don’t get me wrong, I made some good friends here, got married and made the best of it, but I always think about what my life may have been like if I had grown up in the midwest – I have family in Missouri. Anyway, I guess I’m stuck here for now, but someday want to live in Cali, Arizona or back in the Carribean.

By the way A. G. and asston, I agree with you about those nasty young women with their ugg boots, north face jackets, blackberries beeping, dark aviator glasses, throwing their sex out there and hoping to catch a rich CEO to keep them in the spoiled lifestyle that they only know. We have TONS of them in our building and every Thursday the cabs line up outside to chauffer them off to some club or restaurant on Newbury street where they can hopefully catch rich CEO older man by flashing their va-j-jay at them from under their teenie mini skirt. I’m glad I’m married and don’t feel the pressure of dealing with or being confused with one of these airheads.

I live in Boston and cannot wait to leave. But instead of bitching about I am being proactive. And I’m not setting up blogs to why some city I don’t live in sucks. I’m sorry but, as bad as Boston is, at least it ain’t Miami or Los Angeles. Those are places where people actually carry guns and have much worse economic issues. Racism is bad in Boston, as is segregation, but ain’t Philly. Big cities suck (excepting San Fran). If you want a real city try Minneapolis or if you wish warmer, Portland, OR. If you live in a desert city may you rot in hell. How’s that for bitching?
