Nobody here is judgmental, but here's Dallas
2This is pretty accurate in places. As a resident of East Plano, though, I don't think they've captured the nuances of our je ne sais quoi. We're definitely not all drunk kids in Beamers or faux new-urbanists; most of the folks in my neighborhood are minority and lower to middle middle class. I'm sad, too, that they didn't go further north; I could get all kinds of judgmental on those folks. I feel best about the descriptions of the various barrios of Bushville. Because, yeah, I'm judgmental like that.

fixed?
That always happens to me. I think it has something to do with the restricted network at work.
Glad I'm between Craft Beer Overkill (no such thing), Faux Hipsters, and Pink Flamingos and Gnomes.
Hmm. The Chicago one is rather a try-hard mess, but the (baby)London one is amusingly decent. And the first-to-encounter-when-clicking-next Seattle one elicited a solid smirk. I like these.
We need one for Boston.
It would mostly be assholes and road construction.
I am between East Orange Cone & Pink Flamingos and Gnomes but I never would have thought to call this "Churchland."
I live in Gay Parade Tattoos. I'm ok with this.
This is the only info I needed for my Dallas visit. Thank you.
I'm appropriately located next to the California transplants.
I just finished the biography of World Series of Poker creator Benny Binion. Apparently during the first half of the century, Dallas made Chicago kind of look like Vatican City. I mean, Prohibition was seen as an entrepreneurial opportunity in Chicago, but in Dallas, it sounds like the news never even quite reached the city. And after Chicago had its successful World Expo, Dallas decided to have one, but no one came, so they brought in hookers and advertised them on billboards on the highways and suddenly the expo was packed. I was down there last weekend and stayed ready to dive under parked cars for my own protection.
