This would have been more interesting with real stakes attached, like everyone in New Orleans has to leave if it doesn't make the finals, everyone has to move to the city of the winner, etc. Instead we're just spiraling into an insult vortex with no real stakes.
All 5 of these cities are wonderfully charming in their own way, as most of the others in this contest were as well (except Nashville and Atlanta).

I don't like those stakes. Having to quit your job and unexpectedly just up and move sounds horrible. Plus, I have never moved further than a few blocks before, I can't even imagine having to move to a new city in a new state.

Charlotte may be charming, but we have empirical evidence that nobody fucks there.

I'm more comfortable with Inforoo being an insult vortex than these people's opinions having an influence on my life.

Man it's been busy in here today. Throwing my "support"at LA, since I've never really enjoyed my trips there outside of desert daze which isnt even in LA
I've voted Denver the last few rounds because while it's a fun city I feel like it has very little of its own culture and the food isn't great
I say that as I'm literally booking a flight today to visit this summer but still
I've been told the food was good and that Boulder was also up there? I know that people eat elk and shit like that up that way. Baby spring lamb comes from there too, but I'm not eating a baby lamb any more than I would eat a rocky mountain oyster.
The food scene here has been improving a lot since I moved here, but the pandemic really fucked things up on that front. We're back to expanding food horizons now though. Denver's biggest issue with food seems to be that everyone gets hung up on the same thing like hot chicken sandwiches, or smash burgers. One person opens a burger pop up, and then 10 more show up out of no where.
New Orleans is an affront to god by being built below the ocean and Chicago is so cold. Denver in definitely the prettiest and cleanest city left. Arguably the best weather too.
The whole state of California is in a rolling state of emergency due to unbreathable air, wild fires, earthquakes, or mudslides and is bound to collapse into the Pacific at literally any moment.

Remaining cities ranked, based on weather:
1. LA 2. Denver 3. New Orleans 4. Chicago 5. NYC
i haven't actually spent any significant time in LA to know about the weather but i'm assuming it's basically like Indio in October all the time.
snow in NYC is perfectly charming when i'm up there for a show in December but i can't imagine living in true winter in NYC, trying to like get around and do shit.
i'm sure many northerners would come to new orleans and die in wet heat but i still love it. like when it's raining and the rain is hot somehow. that hot rain.

Not to be all "well, actually, but well, actually...winter weather in NYC is super-easy to manage *because you don't have to drive anywhere*. The subway stays up and running in all but the absolute worst conditions, and nobody's rushing to the store to buy out the bread and milk because you can pop down to the corner bodega in the middle a snowstorm for whatever you need. What's the big concern, that you'd have to walk 10-15 minutes in snow or a cold rain? How is that different in Chicago? And that's ignoring the fact that, thanks to our good friend global climate change, winters in NYC are fairly mild, now. It was 50 degrees here in December. We get a couple of big blizzards a year, max, and a few freezing rains, and then Bob's your uncle.
Summers in NYC are a humid mess, but I've never experienced humidity like New Orleans, and I've also lived in DC. So. We're not as bitterly cold as Chicago and we're not as beastly humid as New Orleans. I'd put us third, *maybe* fourth on that list, with Chicago last because of how freezing it gets.
Lol - I'm sure Tristan knew that, or you would think so him being a world traveler. Then again, probably 15% of Americans couldn't find America on a map. So maybe not.
If I had to caricaturize a post of mine, I don't know if I could do it. Maybe the one waiting for Bonnaroo lineup to drop where someone asked how lunch was. But other than that, it would be difficult for me to fake shit. I'm sure others could do a better job.

Humidity rules unless you don't want your hair to get frizzy. We were talking about that last year on the board, but I actually got nightly nosebleeds/scabbing in Los Angeles when I was there for a couple months back when because it was too dry. Plus getting shocked all the time touching shit sucks double asses. I fucking hate that shit. Only time I find the humidity intolerable is on those rare summer nights where the temperature doesn't fall below 88 or 89 and it's like 90% humidity and still. That will usually kick my ass and make it difficult to exert any real energy doing anything. Otherwise, I'll take the heat over anything else.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
