I’ll be honest, I really dislike Corfu.

Tag me when you do. I know that many of them love New Orleans for the architecture, food, and culture. But will they move to the area as a permanent resident? Time will tell. It's hella of a lot cheaper than NYC
Honestly. I will ask random people I speak with the exact question “now that Mamdani was elected, would you consider moving to Louisiana?” And report back exact answers

This thread is so sad
Heading to New York tomorrow. I’ll ask people I run into what their thoughts are on leaving for Louisiana and report back.

I’ll clarify. You had an issue with rainbow flags in Boston, synonymous with the right to gay marriage, while your straight marriage was flushing down the shitter.
Yeah. That’s pretty funny to me.
But that doesn’t mean I don’t want you to not have a better life moving forward.

Either way, Boston has been known as being a racist city. That’s not some secret. It seems like the people in this thread agree that it’s kept some trash away from the city. :shrug:
I’m going to edit. Boston absolutely has racist tendencies. Townie traditions die hard. But weirdly southern places point to it and say “see! It’s not just us!” Rather than…you know…not be racist.
Either way, I remember you starting a thread about how upset you were by rainbow flags in Boston and weeks later starting a thread about how your life had fallen apart because your wife left you and you weren’t sure if the kid was yours. I laughed and laughed.
I’m glad you’re doing better. And I hope that continues for you. But the irony was too delicious.

Didn’t your life fall apart shortly after your trip to Boston. Maybe you’re projecting?

re: What is the derogatory name used for people in your state

Massholes.
But it’s not an entirely inaccurate nickname and most wear it with pride. :lol:

re: Do you find it hard to reason with staunch religious people?
Posted by AbitaFan08 on 10/29/25 at 6:13 pm to RoosterCogburn585
I think people that live their life based on direct quotes from any religious text are wrong.
I think people who read a religious text and use rational thought to apply it to their daily lives to the best of their ability are admirable.

re: What people on food stamps buy vs what people not on food stamps buy
Posted by AbitaFan08 on 10/29/25 at 6:08 pm to stout
I find it interesting that a website with predominantly Louisiana residents has such a genuine disdain for food stamps when Louisiana is in the top five for food stamp usage.
Please stop taking money from other states and complaining about improper spending.

Based on your current choices, look at places in north end off Hanover. You probably won’t be able to get into mamma Maria but see if you can.
No one will be upset by your reservations. Perfectly mediocre options.
