Damn, why are people from New Orleans so damn sensitive?
New Orleans is a great city. It's one of my favorite cities in the US, but it's not for everyone.
It does smell. Of course, so does every port city in the US -- especially those in a humid subtropical climate.
It does have "too much going on" for some people. It's a little jarring to those not used to the unique flavor of New Orleans. It's unlike any other city in the US.
And Amari is from Miami. I cannot think of another major city in the US that fits the description of "polar opposite of New Orleans" better than Miami.
Plastic versus Plaster.
New vs. Old
Jewish vs. French
Point is, you live in a great city, not everyone has to love it the way you do.

we know that and that's the point. We do not understand people who cannot embrace the uniqueness and charm of the city. We really can't.
I've been in san Antonio for a year and all I can think about is how I can get back to Nola. I hate everywhere else but that city.

That's because tourist muthafrickers come piss on our walls.
I worked for 15 years in the French Quarter. Sure, there was always a percentage of locals in the Quarter, but it was low.
On average, it was 90% tourists droppings or dumping their beers on the ground, pissing on our walls and vomiting their hurricanes. Every block has trash cans, and every bar has a bathroom. They are there for a reason.
