Allen and Mariner.

So i was enjoying a drink or two at The Pink last night and some guy i went to high school with (even though he did not reccognize me, but i didn't remind him because i don't really care) told me he just moved here from Toronto after graduating from UofT. Wonderful, good for you, you lie but that's not important. The following rubbish that came from his mouth made me want to stick my stirring straw into his ear so that it needed to be professionally removed. He says "...everyone in Toronto just makes fun of Buffalo. It doesn't have any art, music or any class. And it's really fuckin poor" Now from that most people would just produce the stereotypical "yeah!! well... you're fuckin Canadian!!!" and think they won. But i actually like Canada and many of the things it produces. Some of them being the seamingly endless supply of porn site women and places to make your own beer. What it really comes down to is this question "do people who move away feel embarrassed of being from Buffalo?" well, fuck Martha Stewert, they can have her. but all the transplants in NYC, Chicago and basically everywhere couldn't all think that Buffalo ruins all their chances of living a decent life in a house that looks like demilitarized zone but costs as much as a moon landing. Now i know alot of people love this town through and through but they just got a job elsewhere, but can people think it's hip to hate on the Rust Capital just because it does not have the typical qualities of a city on the rise. yeah we do have multi million dollar renovations to historic buildings to create luxury living space. yes we have a festival pretty much everyday in the summer months. and Yes the Bisons are the shit. yeah i know we have shit tons more things that make this city totally money. So it comes down to this... that kid i went to high school is a fuckin idiot and does not even deserve to drink at such a classy place.
