Default 3 things you hate about where you live.

Chula Vista, CA.

1. I pay more for milk, gas, juice, veggies, etc. than anyone else on this forum.

2. Mello Roos and Association fees. It's ****ing beautiful here but damn, it costs a lot to keep it that way.

3. The ****ing Border Patrol!!!!! A BP helicopter has been flying in circles over my neighborhood for the last ****ing hour. The noise is beyond obnoxious at this time of night. Someone spotted a few illegals crossing the border so the BP shuts off their re-runs of the A-Team, and comes out in en-masse to catch the poor bastards, handcuff them with tie wraps, and stuff them into a BP van for deportation. The helicopter keeps a spotlight on them until the ground troupes can hone in.

Because it's pitch black out this can take a while. It's total cat and mouse ****.

Tomorrow morning I'm buying a drone and some M80s...........

1. Nothing to do past 8 other than fuck and do drugs unless your into the club scene... which I'm not.

2. Everybody thinks they're a cowboy. No you're not! You didn't grow up on a farm, you've never herded cows, and your hands lack calluses. You're a fucking city slicker! If you want to wear the clothes because you think it looks good that's fine, but it doesn't make you a cowboy!

3. The only bands that come out here are either to expensive to see or to shitty to justify paying to see.

1. Homelessness and the common trend of taking the guise of caring about the homeless to never do anything to reduce it.
2. So expensive. In every single aspect.
3. Yuppies.

Unless you pay more than $10 for gallon of milk, you do not pay more for milk than me. :/

And Denmark too, I'm pretty sure. Just a few examples, converted to US dollars: A cinema ticket costs around 16 dollars, 1 litre of milk is at least 1 dollar for the cheap brands, 1 litre of gasoline is usually around 2 dollars or a little less, a new video game will set you back 80 dollars, easily.
Of course, there's the complications that earnings are different relative to living costs, so comparing by price isn't really going to reveal the relative expensiveness of living in one country over the other.

I'm not sure there's anything I hate in particular about where I live, but I'll try:

1) It seems there's almost always someone fixing their house or doing work on water lines under the road or whatever, so much of the year, there's constant construction noise. This summer, it seemed the whole city was being dug up.
2) I live close enough to the West outskirts of the city that sometimes in summer, you can smell the farmers spraying liquid manure on their fields. Only if the winds fall in a certain way though.
3) My neighbors aren't noisy very often, but when they play loud music, they play loud terrible music.

None of those are really anything worth complaining about... I guess this place is allright.

1. The weather is so dull 99% of the time.
2. It’s miles away from where I work.
3. The internet is crap, even though we pay for good internet.

1.) We have extreme hots and extreme colds. I've lived here through 100+ weather, and <0 weather.

2.) The most significant thing about our town is that we're connected to and connecting other towns to a more populous city.

3.) The POA.

1) I love how they have trails around here to hike.
2) I love how there are basketball hoops to shoot at.
3) I love the peace too, the people are nice (besides the whole moving toys around in the lobby)
