New Yorker Adjusting to San Francisco
from the wow,-that-sounds-familiar dept
Okay, okay, I realize this might have a limited audience, but as a transplanted New Yorker in the San Francisco Bay Area, way too much of this rang true for me (as many of you who have heard my complaints know). It is true about the lack of jay walking, good pizza, the subway isn't a subway (who wants to be on a subway anyway in a land where the ground shakes??), and people do talk to you on the streets. However, unlike the author of the article, I have at times put all that behind me and will now admit to liking it out here.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team

Give me a break, SF is too hilly!! No kidding? wow who would've thought. Why not move to Kansas and complain there's too much corn and it's too flat.
The world DOES NOT revolve around NYC, the rest of us do not live like sardines, shut up for a change.
