Wow. You’re like the Rip Van Winkle of the intertubes.

What’s the relevance of the age of this article? It still shows up in the search engines and people still read it.

I was just wondering why you were offering a non-sequitur by talking about what people would find in a small city in Texas.

The relevance is that this is a two-year old article, and you posted a gigantic response to a dead thread, which is unusual.

But then, I’m feeding the trolls, am I not?

One need only look at this article to see why.

What would be the relevance of this observation?

Yes. you. are. You refer to those who’ve lost hope of finding work as being “scum” – that’s as shallow as shallow gets.

I see no evidence that the women are any flakier than the men in SF.

Oh – and move out of San Francisco, unless you like the idea of being an ATM with feet. Do you want a girlfriend who is dating you, or one who is dating your wallet?

If you’re looking for the former, just read the comments and listen to the people around you. You have little chance of finding that in Frisco. If you’re looking for the latter, then look into the adult services section of your local free weekly, and have fun, if you can call it that.

See, that’s a problem, right there. You’re looking in the wrong places. Clubs and bars have been horrible places to look for women, since time began.

I assume that there is something that you’re interested in, other than music and getting drunk. Explore some of those interests a little more deeply, meet people through them, and you might do a little better.

Not very many of them seem to be doing so in Chicago, and even fewer of them seem to be doing so in the rest of the Midwest. Maybe because hard times reached here before they reached the West coast, or maybe because, as a group, Midwesterners have tended to be fonder of the idea of living in the real world than Northern Californians ever were. Not that there aren’t some parts of Chicago that went Yuppie for a while (eg. Lincoln Park), but the craze didn’t last as long as it did in the Bay Area.

Sooner or later, somebody who is living in the real world will notice that the allegedly golden combination of hard work and ability isn’t being rewarded as good Americans are expected to believe that it surely will be, that the well connected idiot children of the rich are being fasttracked ahead of everybody else, and that there is no sign of this unjust state of affairs changing any time soon. America is just as much a classbound society as any of the countries in Europe, if not more so, it’s just been a lot less honest about the matter.
