Orlando

Boulder

Nothing that bad about Boulder other than it being full of narcissists, hippies, and assholes (sometimes 2 or 3 in the same person). But given the extremely high expectation that outsiders have it really is very overrated. There are better places in Colorado and even better in other nearby mountain states.

I bet my weekends and time off are a hell of a lot more exciting than yours. People that live in Houston leave on weekends and holidays for fun and entertainment.


Where did houston touch you?

My biggest problem with Houston is the fact that nothing ever seems complete. Everywhere you turn something is under-construction.

San Francisco is one of my favorite cities


I really liked it too. I also hit it on an absolutely beautiful September period. Went to Sonoma and the Redwood park near there.

Had bachelor party in Miami. Had a great time but it would be mighty expensive I'd imagine.

I don't live to work. I need my hobbies and extra curricular activities.

You either like the outdoors and hate big cities therefore hate Houston.
Or you are from New Orleans and hated seeing Houston take over the gulf coast over the past half century.

My bro is in Reno and I commented how all of the couples he and my sister in law hang with are these perfect, rich, beautiful marathon running, hiking, insane cycling, x-country/downhill skiing freaks. He was like "dude, you should see it in Boulder."

Houston isn't overrated because everyone already knows it blows.

Subpar sports and subpar restaraunts isn't necessarily my cup of tea.

What do you like to do when you visit Houston?

And don't say Paige.

that sounds pretty accurate

you can exchange "Nola" for other major cities too, who hate Houston for becoming more dominant than they are and not being like them

The last time I went to Houston I had a blast. Went to great bars and went to a baseball game.

I love how the criticism of Houston is always something like its all about business and they're always developing.


Detroit must be a great place to live
