I hate where I live. The college town here is boring as fuck... there's literally nothing to do off-campus save for going to the shitty local movie theatre. I don't understand how anyone could want to live here if they're not here for college. It's terrible, and the weather is pretty bad too.
Back home isn't much better. It's just a boring middle class suburban neighborhood. It's nice and pleasant, but it's not really for me.
I would LOVE to live in Manhattan someday. Hopefully I can get into NYU for graduate school and live there afterwards if I like it as much as I think I will.
Holy shit! Bloomsburg, PA? Central Pennsylvania is the shittiest and most depressing place I have ever been. I went down to Williamsport for the Little League World Series and while that was surprisingly fun, there was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING else to do withing 30 miles. We stayed at the Red Roof Inn in Danville and spent most of the time holed up in the room. The only thing we were able to find was some ratty smoke filled bowling ally. I think it was in Danville. Fortunately for us, the Bloomsburg University field hockey team was bowling so we were able to stare at a couple decent looking girls.
That place was absolutely ridiculous, just thinking about it makes me mad. Everything was closed by 10 pm, even McDonalds and Dairy Queen. We drove past a porn shop and decided to stop in cause we were so bored only to find out that you need to be 21 to buy porn in PA. I mean what the fuck? 21 to look at naked people but you can go to war at 18. Most fucked up backwoods place I have ever been. I honestly felt like I was transported back to 1955, the place was just that fucking awful.
I think I remember it now, dreadful.. that's the trouble with people living in this century who have an outlook more suited to the dark ages...oops sorry, let's keep those opinions out of the AET.

you are right, but theo opened up his mouth in a huge way, and now he's banned....;)
I live in Massachusetts. I want to go to New York City for a bit, for my career (since it's THE place to be for communications), but ultimately want to raise a family in New England. I love it here. (although the driving was a bitch on the way to work today with the snow and ice).

I'm surprised about all the complaints people have here for winter and snow...
I love living in a place that has four distinct seasons.
i have complaints about driving in the shit, but i agree. I could never live in Florida, or Texas. I like having it being cold, with snow, on Christmas.

I hear that!!
I love where I live. I grew up in this town and finally moved back. I love that my house is just that - mine.
believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
yes, at the end of the day i love living in a 'small town' although Adelaide does take the piss from other Aussie cities about being a hole (ha :eek: )
pffft good enough for the guys to swing by come tour time, i'm happy!
Na HA! Suffercuse! I lived there for 2 years myself back in the day. Sounds like you need a round at the Dinosaur. I was just there 2 weeks ago. Happy shoveling!
Yeah, it's bad. I just put a post about the snow we got last night. And I live in one of the burbs that gets the most lake effect. Ugh! I grew up in the Adirondacks so you'd think I'd get used to it, but I just hate it more and more!
Edit: And, the with the snow comes bad driving. Normally, my drive to work is about 15 minutes. Took me almost 45 to get home last night and it was SKETCHY!!!!
I'm getting Dinosaur tomorrow for a work event! Pulled Pork, Beans, Cajun Salt Potatoes & Brownies! Woot Woot!

Ouch! (doubles over from kick to the groin!)
enjoy the dino!!! awesome!
And if you grew up in the Adirondacks, then I'm sure you've been to Nicola's in LP??? Awesome stuff, although I prefer the old location better.
LOVE IT. living in suburbs in Dublin. everything is close to me, the city has lots of nice "neighbourhoods", lots of parks and grass and trees and shtuff everywhere. Fantastic social life too, ive never been in another city-centre yet that has at least four or five bars/clubs on every single street! i am close to the sea, and the (small but beautiful) mountains.
MOST IMPORTANTLY i have the distinct pleasure of waking up nearly every day, looking out my window and commenting to myself that the weather is "FIERCE MILD".
unfortunately the main gripe is that in dublin the cost of living is incredibly expensive, one of the highest in europe. that and roads/public transport are disgracefully undeveloped.

Oh I LOVED living in Dublin! I lived on Bushy Park Road in Dublin 6 (How I remember that I don't know) and it was so much fun! Dublin is such a great city! I also lived in Limerick, and even though my friends and coworkers were great, obviously Dublin was much more fun as a city.

I never thought I would say I like living in NJ but my location is sweet
Great Neighborhood with single homes like living in the Suburbs
If and when we have kids the schools are great

Hour to the beach, hour to Mt. Hood, hour to the high desert.
Good public transportation(that I don't use)
Many microbreweries, fine greens, lots of good local and touring music all of the time.
Big town, but doesn't feel big at all. No sales tax and people pump your gas.
