Anyone here in the Boston area? I just got transferred to this center of loony leftist liberalism and am in desperate need of links with reality. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Look up the illegal Guatemalans that worked at Mitt Romney’s house over 11 years and get them to tell you stories of how right wing he was as their Governor.
Sorry, can’t help you. You’re screwed.
The most important thing to remember is that you can't argue with them because their culture is different. It's like if you went to the deepest jungle in Africa and the local tribe found out that you have an iPod. In this case, your iPod is reality, and the liberal natives of Massachusetts can relate to it no better than savages can relate to wireless internet. When they become frightened, they chant things like “Bushitler,” “No blood for oil,” and “Change you can believe in.” They generally won't attack you because they fear physical combat. It has bad magic. However, there are occasional incidents among some tribal members who have drunk too much alcohol, which they call “fire-water,” or “likka.” If you believe that you are threatened by one of these natives, tell him that you are friends with Chief Dick Cheney. They don't like Cheney, but they're afraid of him, so they'll leave you alone. They also have no idea that Texas is bigger than Fenway Park, so they'll believe that the two of you barbeque together on Sundays. Massachusetts liberals are not very smart.
Growing up in NH, I always felt great relief returning across the border from the deep jungle down south.
They got good food and drink. Lots of historic sights to see. The subway used to be free when in uniform. Get off base every single chance you have, get out and do and see stuff. It really has outrageous falls, pretty winters (cold as hell though) and postcard Christmassy.
Ahhh guilt by association ...........LOL !
Who did you piss off ?
Good luck getting back home !!!
You have my sympathy.
Have family there.
When I visit, it’s like going to a different country (from NC / the South).
But overall the people seemed ok - actually pretty friendly compared to, um, the people I’ve been around when visiting say, Manhattan.
It’s sort of a live and let live type of environment.
I know they used to have rent control in Cambridge but that was leading to burned down buildings as the owners who could not get paid enough to keep up the buildings just let them deteriorate until they would finally just get burned down....but that was 20 years or so ago.
I think finally the demosocialists in Cambridge got rid of rent control. (hoping anyway).
The Charles River is beautiful but I could never endure the cold and snow that the residents there endure - so my hat’s off to you.
Get some good cold weather gear, clothing, tires. You’re gonna need them.
And best to you.
OMG - from Texas to Massachusetts. You’ll need psychotherapy.
Don’t even think about concealed carry if you live in Boston. Some of the suburbs are better. Only a few.
Probably you should spend some time in Harvard Square. Then when you return to your suburban home it won’t seem so bad.
They LOVE Obama up there. They’re very proud of themselves for having voted for a BLACK MAN. They voted for his buddy Coupe Deval (Deval Patrick who is governor. He’s also black, thus the MassFolks are doubly proud of themselves. Deval earned his nickname because his first offical act as governor was to trade in the old Lincoln Town Car for a Caddy!)
You are sooo screwed.
especially 3-7 pm Howie Carr
Boston is major Lib insanity, Massachusetts is about 40% frustrated by the Liberal zaniness going on here.
Some good info shows up from time to time on the FReeper Massachusetts page.
BTW, the traffic and driving skills of the populace is/are among the worst in the nation.
Ping me for any info that I might help with.
Abandon all hope ye who enter here.
Arrrrggh! Where's me'pot of gold!?!
I’m from Boston, but we are stationed in North Carolina. I don’t think we will be going back. Good luck!!!
Please let this poor man know that your looney leftist liberal gf has included him in her prayers for world peace
